paxonel: You and the pastor are flat out wrong. Christianity is destroying our culture. 1. Nigerians bearing Christian names like "Hezekiah", "Matthew" etc 2. Christians claiming that some tribal dresses are not decent for their church. 3. Worshipping a white Jesus. Jesus is more likely to be dark skinned. 4. Saying that our traditional religions are demonic 5. Prosperity gospel 3 Likes |

yeyerolling:Exactly. A culture based mainly on Authoritarianism, selfish greed for flamboyance, following bloody gods and non innovation (strict adherence to how a thing was done by grandfathers who lived in different times) not on exploration, science or innovation. |

princfred:I do not know which lack of innovation you mean. Without Western universities to teach chemistry or metallurgy Benin, Owo, Ife, NOK culture, Igbo Ukwu and others were making excellent metal works comparable to those made in the West at that time centuries ago. We developed religious beliefs that acknowledged Oghene-Osa, Eledumare, Chukwu as supreme God. We had no Biblical old testament to copy from. We developed both Republican and monarchical systems of govt independently. We had our own lunar calendar. All developed before Oyinbo came. African culture was always dynamic. Not static. In fact our innovation only stopped when Oyinbo came. We became "copiers" of other people's culture. Europeans on one hand, Arabs on the other. Your submission has no historical or factual basis to support it. Self-loathing is one thing. Fact is another. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Chi59: Do u believe this? According to the pastor, the junior pilot didn't speak up because he was younger instead choosing to stay quiet.. 1. if he stayed quiet, how did the pastor know that the younger pilot knows the solution? 2. in a highly professional environment 1+1 is usually 2. it will be difficult for my the older pilot not to see reason to truth. 3. Neither the younger nor older pilot has 2 lives so why would they both prefer to die that speak up |

superhumanist:I'm just talking objectively, I never mentioned any pastor how is this affecting African culture? example of such tribal dress? out of point! We are talking about culture, not skin colour there are no scriptural proofs for this belief! It is not from the bible. Even orunmila worshipers were long referring to ogun worshippers as demonic before white men brought christianity, so it's African thing, not christianity. If you see christians having this kinda beliefs it is influenced by African culture. out of point too |

paxonel: This is my problem with discussing with christians- you guys wilfully act ignorant just to defend your religion. How can an African man ask why Africans having Jewish/Christian names is wrong? Is it not our African tradition to give our children African names that have deeper meaning? Even from a name, you can tell what language or tribe a person is from. I wouldnt bother to debate the rest of the points.

AreaFada2:How does your igbo ukwu compare to people who were already producing airplanes in metallurgy? You use NOK culture dey compare with people who were producing machines and exploring space with technology. Such is the ego induced delusional arrogant ignorance of the typical African that has made him unable to learn and develop. In how many years will you have been able to invent great things whites already had or establish mechanical farming ? How did your recognition of chukwu etc help you stop human sacrifices and killing of twins etc. Upon all you know it was white men who help to develop the lexicon of your language into written language capable of enabling widespread teaching and learning. My Amadioha needs your brainless skull and testicles to appease him, please for the love of African culture, donate. The lack of innovation i mean is that imagine someone in Africa coming out then saying he wants to develop something that will go to the moon. He would have been regarded as a mad idiot by everyone in the village. In fact, the chief priests would have sacrificed him for desecrating the land if he went ahead with his idea. What is an African brain and culture then and to some extent now fixated on if not to build mud house, farm, marry plenty, born man and follow his blood thirsty gods and traditions? And loathe or even antagonize anyone who deviates from that culture. Were is the innovative orientation in that? |
Re: Pastor Poju Oyemade: "How Culture Is Destroying Christianity In Africa" by princfred(m): 6:41pm On Apr 22, 2018 |
vaxx:The African culture was based on strictly adhering to traditional pattern of behavior and any deviation was highly and easily punishable at the whims of chief and chief priest. Nothing dynamic/no room for dynamism about that. Even now you are advocating for Africans to lay back to their old ways, the ways of their ancestors what tge hell is dynamic about that? Asians and the rest of the world learnt from whites and whites learnt from others including even Africans and evolved but black man in his egotistic un innovative culture cant easily appreciate something better (if its not from his own great grand fathers) to embrace and improve. Open mind makes for better judgement but the African orientation operates on a closed mind ideology as questions are not entertained nor empirical proves highly sought after. |
