5 Strong Reasons African Traditional Religion Is Better Than Orthodox Religion by saintopus(m): 4:42am On Jan 08, 2015
1. KARMA AND REINCARNATION[:
The mistakes of the Orthodox Religion of Christianity and Islam is their inability to teach their followers that "Cause and Effect " are very crucial and that one comes back to either pay or reap. This is very important in African Traditional Religion, which is able to curtail the evil and excesses of people. This is not so in the teachings of the orthodox religion which teaches that one need to believe to blot out former evil.

2. ATR DO NOT LOOK FOR FOLLOWERS
Africa Traditional Religion do not scout for followers. To me this is a strong point because why bother to sell a product people know of its importance? If not that you habour something of which you want to benefit from why go out for Jihad or Crusades and envagelism.? "No matter the advert placement on indomie, it can never outsell garri "
3. EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE JUSTICE DELIVERY :
African Traditional Religion promote speedy justice to be carried out. Justice delayed, they say is justice denied. This will curtail corruption in our polity. You can imagine if our politicians are made to take their Oath of Offices before the shrine of their village deities instead of with the Holy Bible or Holy Quran. Corruption would have been reduced drastically.

4 VERY ECONOMICAL TO PRACTICE :

African Traditional Religion is very economical to practice. No need for expensive temples, mosques or churches to be built. To take someone to its court, you need few pieces of kolanuts and local gin. Little wonder therefore it is called "Poor man Court "

5. GOOD FAMILY VALUES ARE ENCOURAGED :

Marriages contracted under African Traditional Religion seem to be more effective than our current orthodox religious marriages which are gradually becoming something else. Marry today divorse tommorrow.!!! Good family values of respect for elders and those in authorities are practiced in ATR.

Feel free to refute or agree.!!!
