Every race of human beings in this world worships a being that looks like them except for the black Man. Buddhism evolved from the teachings of Gautama Buddha. Look around the nations that practice Buddhism, they look like Gautama Buddha whom they revere. Mental confusion like we have in Christianity on Africa does not exist among them. They can boast of better living conditions than black people who believe that they are going to a "Heavenly Jerusalem" and therefore, it is OK if they suffer abject poverty in the midst of plenty and die In penury and disease, while others gain their own paradise here on earth.

The Japanese have Shintoism. In Shintoism they believe that, Izanagi-no-Mikoto (male) and Izanami-no-Mikoto (female) were the first human beings on the Japanese archipelago. They were called by all the myriad gods and asked to help each other to create a new land which was to become Japan. They don't believe those two created any other race of people aside themselves. That is why they have so much confidence in themselves. There is no invention that the white man do today that they can't do. Many tech companies abroad rush to employ their engineers. They don't believe their ancestors cursed them.

Izanagi and Izanami in all their pictorial representations look like their adherents today. Even in all our holier than thou attitude, no black African country can boast of better living conditions than the Japanese. Their leaders are more honest than ours. Yet we are ever ready to claim washed in the "Blood of the lamb" and are born again in the Spirit.

Many black people do yoga. Some actually take it up as some sort of status symbol. Do you know that Yoga is a ritual in another man's religion? But mention The African masquerade That we do as simple entertainment and watch them demonize it as Fetish and Satanic.

That is why you're not respected anywhere you go to in the world. You go to Europe you suffer racism. You go to Asia, you suffer Racism. Even small countries like Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, go there and see how you're treated like scum of the earth.

Even Arabs treat you with disrespect. Why won't they? Don't you worship one of their own? You believe in one of their own, A psychopath who raped and murdered and pillaged other people because of some God. You even kill ur own and hate your own kind for them and call it jihad. How can they respect you?

Go to Italy, your brothers who braved the elements to get to Europe are no longer allowed into the country. They watch your Black Brothers drown in the Mediterranean sea than Allow them into their country. Yet you should love your neighbor as yourself. Yet many of you was in church today to pray for the Pope and the Holy Roman Catholic Church. But your ancestors have curses that the same Church organise vigils to break. Do these Italians don't have ancestors like Pontius Pilate and Emperor Nero? Why Didn't God curse their generations for having a hand in the death of Jesus and the early Christians, rather it is the innocent african ancestor who was, kidnapped and enslaved that have curses that his future generations must break with Christianity.

The ancestors of the present day Italians slaughtered early Christians. They fed many to lions. And made a circus out of it. They built the Amphitheater in Rome where they gathered every evening to watch Christians with one hand tied, armed with a blunt knife to fight a Hungry lion. They found serious entertainment in it and placed bets on it.

At the same time when this mindless evil was going on there was a thriving black civilization in Libya, Kongo, Ethiopia, And many parts of Africa. At that time our ancestors abhorred inhuman treatment so much they existed without prisons. Have you not read things fall Apart by Chinua Achebe? When Okonkwo committed Murder accidentally what happened? He was exiled. That was the highest punishment amongst our ancestors then- self imposed exile. And after a while when you make amends you come back. Our ancestors were so good natured they believed in giving an individual a second chance. There was no rape, no paedophilia and all manner of nonsense like we Have today. Yet it is this same ancestor who have cursed their future generations that Christianity is breaking?

Does it not occur to you that in 400years time, at the rate you're going, and at the rate China is taking over Africa. Buddhism might come popular on Africa and future generations will be made to participate in some Buddhist ritual to break "ancestral Curses?"

The aim of this article is not to portray the African ancestor as blameless saints. That is not the point. The point I am making is that there is no evil that is found in our ancestors that can't be found a million fold amongst the ancestors of the Europeans, whose ancestors and present day generation continue to enjoy life at the expense of the black African. They have even gotten creative in ways of evil. They starve babies to death because of Crude oil and murder people in their sleep because of diamond. They sponsor wars and destabilise countries yet it is the black ancestor who only have ancestral curses that can be broken by doing all manner of stupid things in the name of Christianity.

Due to some Fictitious curses, the black man is ashamed of his name. He hates the colour of his skin. We now have Little innocent black children, born of parents who believed that their race had no history. Little black children seeing, before they could talk, that their parents considered themselves inferior. Innocent black children growing up, living out their lives, dying of old age and all of their lives ashamed of being black. Ashamed of being African. All due to a very evil form of psychological manipulation called "Ancestral Curses"

Given the way we are demonizing our ancestors now in the name of Christianity, how can we tell that Six/Seven generations from us won't be persuaded by some radical Chinese Buddhist Monks (whom perhaps found their way to Nigeria as a result of the Chinese government taking over Nigeria because of insurmountable debts), to drop your name and pick up Zhang, or Jiantsu, Or Xiang, or Chiang Kai Shek?

After all you dropped Okeke to pick up Johnson. You Dropped Obiagbaoso to pick up Hezekiah. Didn't you demonize Oseloka, Nnanyelugo, Mbanefo and Obiechina because they sound Igbotic? Your pastor and Daddy GO said it was evil hence you picked up Davidson and Favour and Goodness. So why do you think it's impossible that your future generations won't pick up, "Zing Chow", "xinzhong and Mao Ze Dong?"

Dear Black African as you don't know where you're coming from, you certainly don't know where you're headed.. And that is why you are treated with contempt all over the world, with the world asking you: "who the hell do you think you are?"

Oh ye Negro, when shall you grow a cultural backbone? When shall you grow a identity of Your Own? When shall the beings that dominate your metaphysical world look like you? Till when will you stop demonizing your ancestors?
