pimplucious: Just now in the course of a conversation, I mentioned to a female colleague of mine, a fully grown YORUBA LADY, the legend of MOREMI and she was completely lost! She didn't know anything about MOREMI.

Ask same person about Deborah, Hannah, Ruth,Mary etc and your ears will be full of "according to my bible...".

How can a people have a future when they are disconnected with their past and their roots? I have heard people who don't know the names of streets next to theirs in Lagos give vivid description of London streets and they are proud of it! Some funny characters who don't know the names of their next-door-neighbours travel several kilometres to hug and pray in deceitful fraternity with total strangers all in a bid to find elusive peace.

We are happy and foolishly excited when we tell the stories of WANDERERS from their "Holy books" and dismiss with scorn Centuries of a Beautiful Heritage,Proud Traditions and enviable cultures as contained in the African Social Order!

We broke faith with our Ancestors and we are suffering the consequences. The descendants of Cavemen and Wanderers, from the West and the East, have given us enough WILD GEESE to chase forever because we are stupid!

Funny Characters like TB Joshua and Chris Oyakhilome ride us like donkeys in the South and Abubakar Shekau kill us like Goats in the North! Thinking about it now, it is actually a repeat, the very same way their progenitors, the early " missionaries" and "Jihadist" performed some 200years ago when they intruded into the affairs of a people who lived better and were more blessed than their miserable selves!

We are in deep trouble and we are fast heading for deeper troubles unless we are able to STOP & THINK!

Segunj8: God bless you OP, I agree with you.. We've so much forgotten our root, religion and culture such that most ppl now see everything African as Evil.
I can remember sometimes ago when a governor distributed tablets to students in his state there was an uproar that 'odu ifa' was among the study materials on the tablet, this was becuz most ppl see anytin traditional as things of the devil while the bible and quran re termed holy. This is what I call 'Intellectual slavery'
Separate the ppl from there culture and u ll rule dem forever.

onetrack: Like this

Yes sir.

The slavery of the mind is the most pernicious form of slavery.

UyiIredia: The worse slavery is in misunderstanding what the mind actually is.

What is this one saying?. . .

Lol.
You stand alone on that one.

Yes......... No............... What??!!

Deep as it is steep, this comment. Bull's eye.

You should not be surprised that these here:





- - - -> Can neither grasp the trajectory of the comment nor its purpose and its meaning. Worse still, they will labor under an implacable veil for the rest of their days until some seemingly bizarre experience bestirs the first ripple of serious observation of themselves, their minds and the world around them.

I have since decided not to waste my breath. It was a wise saying, that one about casting pearls before swine.

I hope you are well.

plaetton:

Lol!
It actually bestairs the mind, if I may borrow this big word from you, that you blindly, sheepishly and slavishly think that not believing in invisible sky-fairies is some kind of deficit.

The issue here is about the slavery of religion, the most pernicious type there is , and the clearly devastation is having on the African mind.

What reality are you living in?
Do you not see the mental and now real physical devastations that T.B clown Joshua and others like him are wrecking on my nation?

A mind is an orb of being that transcends matter, energy and time. It dwells in eternity with the infinite source and comes to this plane to experience life in order to become closer to the source.

There are seven planes of existence guarded by seven cockroaches, but that's another story.

UyiIredia: And your mind is a bunch of chemicals. Is the equivocation not plain to you?! Your brain is a physical object. The WORKING of your brain is not a physical object). Yet somehow your working brain being your mind is physical. Maybe I should say that speed is physical. If you can't first see that your mind is unevidenced (chances are you will never see your brain) I doubt we can begin to rationally talk about God.
