The age of Ignorance is gradually fading away for the age of truth/light. But it will take another thousand years for many Christians to know the truth. That is why many are waking up and the lost truth are being discovered. Many European lies will be bursted. If that late queen had confessed of many things done to Africans and many wrongs in your religions, many of you will still choose to remain asleep
To someone up their Olorun is evil while God which an englishnized version of it is the correct cos that is what Europeans told you is the truth. When did the pink men came? When did we start using their language? What they conjured into your Bible were your Africans stories. They did it in such a way that you guys can't detect the truth. When someone very knowledgeable about the first language or language of the gods Afa/Ifa....(someone will say it is evil now) tell you how all this came to be, many of you still won't believe. African spirituality know a lot than Christianity cos they were the first religion. They have their errors while the errors in religions is very huge. Their are many things Christians should ask them and they also need to worship only the creator. Their error is putting trust on creations instead of the creator. Christians also do the same by worshipping Jesus which is not even the name of the Son even when the Messiah clearly told them that they should worship the Almighty God. All your religions are in error since the begining of this age of Ignorance that is about to go. The truth will set things right and non know it untill it is revealed

Maynman:
Olorun simply means Ruler of the heavens/sky and Orun means Heaven/sky when translated to English Language.
But in Yoruba Culture, Orun means much more than the heaven/sky you may know about.

There’s no equivalent word for Hell Fire in yoruba language. The word Hell was translated as orun apadi but Apadi LITERALLY means Broken Clay.

So, what’s Orun?
Orun is a contraction of Orirun
The word orirun is formed from two words “Ori” and “Run”.

Ori is very important to yoruba people, that’s why you can’t see any yoruba art or sculpture without the head, sometimes it’s just the head.
There are 2 types of ori:
1. Ori Òde(physical head)
Used extensively to mean:
. The Top
. The pinnacle
. The main point.

2. Ori Inú(Spiritual head)
. Soul.
. Spiritual self.
Used extensively as:
. Destiny
. Life path
. Life purpose.


And Run means:
-originated (from).
-stem(from).

When you put Orí-run together it means the Main Place of Origination.
The synonyms will be “The Source”.

The word doesn’t just suggest a particular place in the sky.
According to yoruba history, when you die, you join your soul group. They believe that when you die you go back to that particular source you came from.

Orun or Orirun is not one specific place where everybody goes.
Orun is a strong version of Orírun.
There’s no promised mansions, streets filled with gold, praising a deity for eternity while other burns in hell.

In other words all the billions of people who don't agree with you do not have this so called "common intelligence" then what makes it common? smiley

People who lack intelligence are simply Stupid people.

2 plus 2 equals 4. With intelligence you can affirm this yourself. Without intelligence it will fly over your head. If you don't agree that 2 plus 2 equals 4 then You'll fall under the stupid category.

hahahahaha so you are here

surah 1:5 You ˹alone˺ we worship and You ˹alone˺ we ask for help.

This is the word of (islamic) allah telling 'you' (the allah greater than him), that he is the only one that he (Islamic allah) worships. So allah worships someone and asks someone else for help. That is why he refers to himself as 'WE'. What are we killing transgendered people for?

If you substitute the keywords, you will have: You alone "WE' work for and You along we ask for help. If you say this to a second person, how would you understand it? Muslims want you to think that you are stupid for understanding a simple and common expression.

In Surah 1:1 In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.

Here, allah in his very first utterance to Mohammed in the Quran is singing the praise of allah. That is the first impression that he gave Mohammed.

Muslims, who said those words in the Quran? Who was he referring to?
