Can You Answer This by linxon(op): 1:27pm On Apr 23, 2009
Please let us learn and enlighten ourselves grin

Who were the parents of Adam and Eve?

Nigerian pray like there is no tommorow yet they are at the bottom of the pile globally, why?

Most of the ancient African religions are older than Christianity, and Christianity is older than Islam, therefore where did both come from?

For example before the Europeans came to Africa The Igbos believed in Chukwu (= “Chi Ukwo,” or “Great Chi”) and their alusi's, The Yorubas believed in Olorun Eledumare and the orisas so why have we dumped these and replaced them with Jesus a Jew and Muhammed an Arab? Our greatest intellectuals Wole Soyinka and Chinua Achebe will back me up on this one.

But my people I know we MUST love GOD but the question is how? In a European way?  in an Arab way? or in an African way?

Religion is VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!! I love GOD and I know GOD loves me, like most Yoruba families my family was a mixture of Christians and Muslims so I know about both faiths.  I finished the WHOLE Quran at the age of 12 and I used to call muslim prayers (Invented by Africans).  I used to go to Sunday school in England and sang all the hyms from the bottom of my heart.  Religion = power, if we are following the religion of others we will always be powerless.  For example King Jaja of Opobo (Niger Delta), this man was INCREDIBLE! he was born and raised to be a slave like a chicken, but he said from day one that the white people were stupid to tell him he was ordained to be a slave.  Can you imagine? he had no education nothing, yet he could see that Christianity was being used to enslave him and his people.  He led a revolt as a youngster and went on to become a political and military strategist who ruled a prosperous Opobo kingdom for decades, he became so powerful he started to tax the British and French DURING THE SLAVE TRADE!

1 in 4 africans are Nigerian, anything we do will impact black people all over the world! We must think carefully about what we are worshipping.  Nigeria will only develop when we embrace the true beliefs of our ancestors who lived hundreds of years before the arrival of repackaged religions such as Christianity and Islam.  This is when we will all combine with respect, confidence and the strength to develop our nation and make the black race proud.
Re: Can You Answer This by Horus(m):
Due to the devastating effects of Arab and Caucasian Colonialism, most African’s both at home, and abroad, today suffer from what could be called a “Biblical Complex”. Which is because Caucasians have succeeded in making most of the world's darker peoples, with Negroes in particular, feel inadequate for not being part of the so-called Judo-Christian Biblical ancestry. When in actuality, African’s descend from Cultures which pre-date Judaism, Christianity & Islam by several Millions years. And whilst Judaism,Christianity & Islam may have all had their roots in Africa, whether we want to accept it or not, they are all safely in the hands of people who now regard Blacks as little more than their inferiors.
