Excerpt from : no meek messiah.
It is 391 CE now as Roman Emperor
Theodosius elevates Jesus (posthumously)
to divinity, declaring Christianity the only
"legitimate" religion of the world, under
penalty of death. The ancient myth is
rendered law. This decision by Theodosius is
possibly the worst ever made in human
history: what followed were century after
century of torture and murder in the name
of this false, faked, folkloric "prophesied
savior" of fictional virgin mother. Within a
year after the decree by Theodosius, crazed
Christian monks of Nitria destroy the
majestic Alexandrian Library largely
because philosophy and science are taught
there—not the Bible. In Alexandria these
are times of the highest of intellectual
pursuits, all quashed by superstitious and
ignorant Christians of the most godly and
murderous variety: they had the "Holy
Bible" on their side.
Emperor Theodosius I could have had no
idea how much harm this blunder would
cause humanity over the centuries that
followed. Christianity was made the only
legal cult of the empire, and for the next
1500 years, good Christians would murder
all non-Christians they could find by the
tens of millions.
Christians dont research or need this part...90% of em are very ignorant of it and are quite contented ignoring it so as to keep their fate...
If anybody researchs the history of the jewish god and of the christian faith i doubt if any will still believe any of that shiii...

Logically, the poster you quoted made a lot of sense.

It's laughable how the pagans, or whatever they beliefs are are so quick to oppose Christianity because it's the only religion that preach against their immoral nature. They are so ignorant. They believe in Greek imaginary god called zeus but quick to spit rubbish at Christians. Isn't that funny. They defend every other imaginary gods that people worship just to talk down on Christians. Look inward, it says alot about who you really are.

at some point people will have to introduce people to new things, don't be ridiculous, the same white people also ensure that you are educated today, that you don't kill your twins. Christianity stopped you from killing your twins, killing those who unmask a masquerade and many other atrocities. Be reasonable for once.

yes because we believe in the bible as the Word of God and not attempts by those who hate the faith. I'm really sure you believed that when you read it, of course that's because it's condemning Christianity. You don't care how true and valid it is. It's typical of your type so we ain't surprise

Read this provocative truth.
Even the respected Chinua Achebe could not convincingly defend the so called damages caused by the advent of the British in Things Fall Apart. He was clearly against them bringing Christianity to Nigeria but failed to clearly defend the Igbo traditional religion. I however comend his professionalism for making a great book not letting sentiments becloud his rational thinking.

Give me one good reason why you would unmask a masquerade unless your intentions are evil and to cause insult and religious conflict.

Twins were never killed by any of us here. Derz no Kalabari here neither does that practice have any spiritual significance.

The man stated the truth as it is. Odinani did decline. The book portrays nothing but the height of pride and morality of the traditionalist and christianity signifying the break down and falling apart of our Values and society .

Better men such as Wole Soyinka, Fela Kuti etc .. have known and embraced the values of Traditional Religion.

wow! I'm shocked by your response, twins were never killed? In your sentimental mind my friend. How did black magic originate? How did voodoo (juju, witchcraft )originate? Isn't it from your traditional religion practices? Or are you blind?

Yes twins were never killed among our tribes. Stop applying your fvcked up ignorance to all our religoons and culture when you dont even know our tribe or religion. Traditional religion is not one religion ok! Are the Indians and Japanese killing twins Or building IT technology and whatever..

Whats wrong with Voodoo (Vodun) You arr an ignorant foo .l. give me your contact. Ill personally introduce you to Vodun priests . You can go get yoursekf initiated and clear your st.upid misconceptions. And plz state wat tribe are you from first .

Don't flair up yet my friend, calm down, chill. We were not on achievements, these two men are respected men and I respect them. I know you pagans are highly inflammable. The point is, Fela Kuti' lifestyle and perceptions were at war with christianity and that's why he was against it.

Firstly I would advice you to take all historical accounts from the colonial period with a pinch of salt, especially those made popular by missionaries and colonial administrators as these accounts were often embellished to exaggerate all African customs and practices as backward, it may definitely be true that twins were being killed sometime ago in places like calabar, but do you know that the Catholic church used to wage holy wars where pple that refused to convert to christianity were slaughtered, do you know the amount of barbarism exhibited by colonial europeans, Do you know that pple used to be burnt alive on a stake in europe because there were thought to be possessed, all these seem quite pale in comparison to twin killing if you ask me.

Secondly Traditional African Religions have nothing to do with "Black Magic", that comparison is as nonsensical as comparing a church service to an entertainment show.

Thirdly Voodoo is a legitimate system of worship , "Juju" is a derogatory term invented to mock African spiritual systems, No connection between the two.

I also know one thing for sure, that you are very ignorant... The same way u have protestant, cathlotic, presby and co is the same way you have different traditional fractions, so how would it be all of them that practice such? I can see your likes have totally derailed the thread, not adding value to it but creating confusion.. Is Christianity not behind a lot of great killings in history? If I. Use your Words, Christianity is also barbaric.. And you are also exhibiting Your own quota of sheer ignorance

Lmao ur Christian god has achieved nothing in last 2000yrs of his existence.

Where was Christianity in the 200BC? When Rome was high and mighty with it's God Jupiter(Zeus in Greek)
Where was ur stuupid young god around the 1500BC when Egypt was at it's peak by Grace of Ptah and AmenRa, that greeks had to come into Africa to learn science

What has ur god achieved as the acclaimed perfect one?
My brother u are going too far back when u talk of 2000 years. Ask the xtian - brainwashed. How powerful their god is when a suicide bomber enters their worship place and blow them all up.

I'm done arguing with y'all. If I want to argue, we will go days unend. I've been doing this for the past 200 years. It's allowed for people to belief in anything they belief in however, I've seen that Jesus Christ is only real God. While I wish that y'all would know this, I can only hope and pray.

Your God my God was or is in existence, but he look for a way to harmonised us. He started by sending different prophets. Then sent us human spirit jesus. Asking us to behave like jesus. That is no matter what I feel aboutt my village god, it cannot be popular. We don't need blood of animal. All we need is making my body a living sacrifice(positive acts) all the time. Jesus teachings is the same law of government. Embrace his teaching . If you give ceaser, you have given God
