African and asian (especially midle eastern traditions), have generally been unfair to women.

I believe they all have their roots from ancient cultural practices that reduced women to just another possession owned by men.

Well maybe now that Mavel's comic hero @Thor is now a woman, things might change or better stilll, relocate to columbia or tasmania where women are permitted to sexually assault men.

From some of the posts one can say many married women are really involved in this infidelity thing.May God help us My advice is that married women should desist from thess krukere moves because you dont know how this god operates.To those who are born and married in township and think that this does not exist,you better look before you leap.Just my advice because this god strikes in different ways.

fnep2smooth:
mu mu .... Go to other country like INDIA, china and some part of asia that does not even know the name of jesus. The guy is taking about it tradition and there believe so better leave it and focus on what you believe

so u can't get your message across without insulting first? Issokay, continuuu

Greedy men are polygamous in nature and from the beginning GOD created one man for one woman

Billions of people have lived and are living and will still live with one partner and be faithful all their lives...monogamy is the ideal...unless of course you have two bodies in one....polygamy is one of the vices of the devil and infidelity its cousin

The truth is that POLYGAMY=LEGALIZED ADULTERY.....

Sad though heaven is for the pure...but the devil is still winning the majority I.E the perverse minded over to hell!!..

Speak for yourself and say 'I am easily carried away by what I hear'.
See what a woman is writing...hehehe
Women are indeed their worst enemies.

Alikaxon: Men are polygamous from onset. Even in the bible; king solomon and the rest of them. Have you ever heard of a woman that was polygamous?... Pls, that is not to say am justifying men cheating. But its high time you people stop taking the issue of gender equality and discrimination too far, up to a point you now want to change the style of the said "infidelity god" that was there before ur grandma was born. Why don't you just ask God to make women start paying groom's price if men do pay brides price in the name of equality?. See, there is nothing like equality, but there should be equity. Both sexes has areas of strenght and weakness..... Op; do u still want to agitate for women to be made KING? We better just leave some things the way we met it.

Women do pay for the groom in other cultures and there are cultures where women can marry more than one man. Your point is?

It's men/man that carve those wood. Do u thnk they wil program it to destroy/kill fellow man! Think abut it.

Guidette: The rules are made by men. So why shouldnt it favour them?

there was no goddam 'gods' involved. Just the handiwork of insecure psychopaths

The reason might be that the founder of 'ekpo nkagwo' did not include equality/equity in its mode of operation because of their selfish interests. If they do, they could have been the first culprits...

all these men that support anytin called woman. for ya mind women go like u. u are just a learner. women dont like woman rapa. they will only clap for u and follow the other men so quit all d hypocrisy

mcfarlin:

Well that's good at least they grant women some measure of superiority

Unlike some religions where you are permitted as a man to have a harem of women,and you are at liberty to trample upon the civil rights of women..e.g covering them with tents..even burning them alive if they are caught doing something as little as idle chitchat with an “infidel”.

my brother that was why I said it depend on the custom and norm of the society. one man meat is another man poison. that is how they are doing in one Society is a taboo to another society.

machi25: ....is high time u guys stopped deceiving yourselves.what is paying bride price compared to fending 4 the family?? Or don't u know that most women are now the bread winners of their families while the man plays full house husband,the woman toils 2 provide 4 her kids including the man.Don't even get me started ooo

very Good. Paganism is Progressive and does not go by books.

So the Laws can be changed to suit "these days".

THose were the laws of then. These are the Laws of now.

mcfarlin: Talk about backwardness in the 21st century.

This same “gods” couldn't hinder colonization from occurring

They couldn't prevent the white men from defeating their so called powerful KINGS.

But I still love the principle of leaving their gods to fight for them unlike some other religion who fight for their spineless god!..

FOOL! SINCE WHEN DID THE GODS BECOME INVOLVED IN HUMAN POLITICS AND INDEPENDENCE MOVEMENTS?

DO YOU THINK THAT THE GODS BELONG TO NIGERIANS ALONE?


FIRST LEARN ABOUT PAGANISM AND THEN TALK!

The whitemans christian god couldn't help him defeat Nigerians until practically the 20th century
He couldn't help stop the takeover of the moors over Spain
Couldn't help hinder immigration and takeover of government positions
Couldn't stop Africans from frequently raiding the fort towns
Couldn't help defend the christian Ethiopian, Nubian and Egyptian kingdoms from whiteman's conquest(christian self-haters like to ignore that)
Couldn't help defeat the Haitians and save his people from their take-over, etc.
And people still believe Nigerian were the only people in the world taken over, too.
Spineless people!

Yeah all the wars u mentioned are typical guerrilla warfare.

Also the african god couldn't help them in their thinking and shift them from primitive existence.

Couldn't give them the brains to advance in science rather they were consoled and are still consoling themselves with witchcraft.

Couldn't make them reason beyond abominable practices like killing of twin

Couldn't teach them that female genital mutilation is wrong

Couldn't ask them for anything but HUMAN sacrifice

In short couldn't debar them from being plain stoopid and useless savages!!!.

There is no such thing as African Gods or INdian Gods. They are all different versions of the common Gods.

The so-called African Gods never killed other people because they followed a different faith like the christian god.


And Science is not everything. Our Ancestors knew the art of living a stable , content and balanced life.

science comes with its own negatives.

I dont understand why you keep mixing technology with religion. two completely unrelated things.

My Gods never sanctioned killing twins. so i dont know what you are talking about.

And better kill under developed newborn twins than kill adult grown ups in the name of religious heresy.

These so called gods are just a mockery on human intelligence

A phoolish man goeth into the forest and cuts himself some wood

He uses a part of the wood for cooking

Another part for warming himself


And at the end of the day carves hisself a graven image.


Then bows to him and says thou art my GOD
If that is not the highest level of DELUSION.

Then I wonder what kind of DELUSION could be higher than this





[P.S]- I summarized a passage i read in the bible years ago and added my own observations please guess don't ask for the chapter and verse!...I've forgotten!!

umm do you know the difference between a God (Spiritual Force) and an idol used to represent a God (material/ritual object)?

Anyways tell that to your hypocrite christian brethren who worship idols of their man-god and his mother in their church.


Atleast we use idols of GODS while you use idols of MEN.

Who's the hypocrite all your analogies and chronicles of your gods/deities attest to the fact that your so called gods/deities were actually men who were deified after their departure from life.

And for your info GOD is spirit and those who worship him must do so in spirit and in truth.

Also the idols are vices of the devil used to deceive people into believing they are serving GOD whereas they are actually serving lucifer.

And to address the issue of christians bowing down to idols or images that they assume to be divine...the devil as actually perversed their minds.

As for me I worship GOD according to what he has revealed to us in the new testament delivered to us through his son JESUS CHRIST.

So am not an hypocrite.

Am half yoruba

And colonialism didn't bring adulterated practices.

Abominable practices actually flourished under paganism

Without whites we wouldn't even have the internet.

So shut up and agree that whites are actually progressive thinkers.

Ok next time plz specify the religion you are referring too.

Bytheway In Yoruba religion too, the Gods are not deified humans.
For example, Lord Shango's old name was Jakuta. but then was later replace by the name of a King who was probably a very forceful and powerful character. Or it can be possible that the King was named after the God as many Ancient Pagan Kings took on names of Gods to symbolize reincarnation, etc.

However during worship, the worshipers know that they are worshiping the Spiritual Force, not the man.


If you have no image or perception of what you worship, then your worship is devoid of true devotion.you must be seeing atleast something in your minds eye. It may be anything. E.g., a fireball, smoke, the Universe, etc............depends.
