You should be an atheist, not a Christian. That is the final destination, but it requires courage. Do you have courage?

Hmmmmm

She should be what she wants to be. She chooses to be a christian and that is fine.

You atheists generally think that intelligent people will become atheists. Just because she wrote an interesting piece about religion and challenging one's thinking, you assume tat she should be an atheist.

I disagree

Interesting, I get your point. It's just hypocrisy in many Nigerians.

However I feel you are being derogatory towards Islam and I can explain why.

I share the same view with him..

However, it's your opinion. But don't be surprised if some people don't see it the way you do.

hatred can never accommodate love. so its either a person hates or loves. in other words you can never claim you love God and at the same time hate your neighbour.

I am glad you know how to sieve stuffs you read on here, do not be carried away since whatever I post is my opinion. People should learn to sieve and select what's beneficial to them. I refer to religion( all faiths) and my intention is not to bash anyone.

Exactly. You can NOT love your moslem God and hate your Christian neighbour. That is the point. How can you claim to love a God that you never seen but hate people who are with you physically.

Nice long epistle. Was just glad standd ended it well, was beginning to dismiss her long epistle as the first few paragraphs suggested a Muslim vs Christian theme and how one is better than the other but it turned out to be a bit neutral theme.

Truth be told we know where you are heading to, you'll get there without any of the force or scare tactics most religions use.

So atheist also preach to convert shaky believers.

Where am I headed, Mr. Kevoh? I should apologize in advance to those who think this is a Moslem vs Christian thread. No it isn't. I was born a Moslem, went to Quranic school for a long time too...Now, I am a Christian but I still don't like Religion. I just want to be human, love everyone equally and not be too religious that I lose sight of my humanity.

You do not see through my eyes or know the thoughts that form my words. I am not derogatory towards Islam. I just don't like religion...all of them, the way I know it.

Question: Where am I headed, Mr. Kevoh? Answer : I just want to be human, love everyone equally and not be too religious anymore that I lose sight of my humanity.

You answered your question yourself with slight modification from me. Cheers!

This deserves front page

standd: My Christian 'friends' will go from speaking in tongues to Screaming Jesu! as their boyfriends ram them from behind.

I fail to see the problem here. Are their boyfriends supposed to ram them from the front?

from your conclusion you sound neutral though, but your philosophy of "love every body regardless of religion" is still the summary of Christ's teaching. you are more a Christian preaching the massage of Christ with detachments. or do you want to form your own religion ? maybe "chrislam" lol

Lmao Not at all. Peace and Love should be enough. Not religion

That's the only part you saw ehn...
Today is Sunday oh, OLUWAseun, go to church

Deep...

The problem with humanity is we are becoming more religious and less spiritual.

ROTFL!!

Not like I'm a church goer myself... In own case, I'm just tired of hearing the same thing over and over again...
I also hate routine live going through the same process every 7 days.

Mine is even better than Moslems who are required to throw their bums in the air 5 times daily...lol!

Personally, I don't have a prob with religion.

It only boils down to the individuals and the height they've attained in their relgious marathon.

No true religion supports violence, discrimination, tribalism or even racism.

The fanatics that tend to take the laws into their hands are more or less individuals who have had the doctrines of their religion interpreted wrongly.

Religion if rightly practised, is a great tool that can reshape the world.

This is what I believe.

Great Write up..
Its a long one but I read all of it
Nice one Standd

The intelligence dripping from this post sha....

You were actually bias, you wrote about Islam from your own experiences about the religion. though you concluded well but it was obvious that you have reservations about Islam to the extent that you wrote a false fact about Islam

Nonetheless I think you are wrong with all your submissions

Religion is not the problem. The problem is human. With or without religion we will still harm our neighbours. I can easily blame the status and the slave mentality of the black race on Christianity, I can blame the crusade on the Catholics, I can blame the English civil war on Christianity and I can blame Islam for the actions of the beasts in human form in Middle East and Africa. But I will be stupid and unreasonable to do that because of these truisms:

Humans are angels
Humans are devils
and humans are neither angels nor devils.

Religion is a mere cloak, it provides the perfect foundation to express our psychopathic tendencies. It is like case of an abuser, with the fierce need to abuse his victim would scrutinise every action of his victim before descending on him/her. The so called fanatics already possess the devilish tendencies then comes in religion to solidify it.

What happened in Rwandan , was it because of religion? what about in India? Ibadan v Ekiti war, Holocaust? ISIS? Pogrom? Slave Trade? the Roman wars?

They were all situations of a few psychos controlling a larger group of people who obviously either have nothing going on for them or have that strong need to blame a particular people for the woes. Unfortunately these group share a certain characteristics which they believe is their strongest bond.

Wars have been fought before the industrial age, and most of which had nothing to do with religion. Abolish religion today, we will still have people with subjective ideologies who would hate others because of what they have in common.

The Philosophy of man and his relations with other men is that simple

When the Bible say love your neighbours as yourself, it was capitalising on human nature. That is if men are left on their own without rules (now we have the constitution as our guiding tool) they display that beast in them without reservation.

And about your Quranic teacher, he would not have touched you if he did not have the implied permission form your guardians. I stopped going to my second modirasah because he was scary. My dad backed me up but my mum did not, guess who won? My great-grandpa, an Islamic scholar stopped my uncle from attending Islamic classes when they would not stop flogging him. Therefore your teacher is blameless

Sorry I'm bringing politics into this but this is why I shake my head at those who refuse to vote for Buhari because Jonathan is a Christian. It is absolute ignorance. It's amazing how blinding "religion" could be.

Having said that, I haven't attended church in a month because what's the point? The only thing I see there is the latest shoes & clutches. No spirituality whatsoever. People are so f*#king pretentious.

Anyway the most important thing is the message passed across.

We need to love each other irrespective of our differences. That's what religion preaches and people do the opposite.
