No wonder some of them are poor, cos dey expect God to come fix, something they can use their brains to fix,

Do you expect God to lay your bed? Why do you have hands?



People in Nigeria are ONLY religious because of heaven entry.

So selfish and self centered people...

i have noticed the most religious ones that are the least developed ...that means you cannot replace common sense with spirituality .you have your part to do and God has his part to do , actually GOD as already done his part , he is waiting for the religious to act what they preach .

We have left everything for God to do for us and here we are , nothing to show .....wake up guys

Very unfortunate, we end up becoming religiously irreligious, religion has brought division than unity, hatred than love, we still have a long way to go.

Did u guys observe what i observed,The Countries that are more religious on the chart table practise less human right and are the least developed and if i must add,the ones that are less religious are more God fearing and good hearted.
Think about it.

**facing the panel of judges** " I think with this statistic, u can now see that putting religious belief ahead of common sense and logical reasoning is synonymous with underdevelopment ".

BTW:. Being religious is good but abandoning logical reason is worst hence all the Developed countries even those who brought d so called religion are missing from th list.

Here in Africa, a child will ask d parent how water got into coconut and the response will be "shut up! Don't qstn d work of God" while in developed countries, the parent will either tell him why or refer to those that can explain why...Mtcheeeew for Africans..

Check again, USA is religious and China isn't

The countries at the bottom of the list are in the G7..or most of them. We have shirked our responsibilities and left it all to God. You'll see people leave work to go to Church in the middle of the week during working hours. As long as we continue thinking that the answers to our problems lies in praying, we will remain an under-developed country.

I think we Africans are using prayers for the wrong reasons and hence the little or no result in our country , you will never see a white man praying for God to help him provide electricity , built roads etc , God has already provided these raw materials in abundance and he expects to work on these raw material NOT pray over and that's why he give us a brain , prayer is not a replacement for laziness ( prayer is meant or was designed to fellowship with the creator and get wisdom to apply to life )..and most Africans are blatantly wicked and lack love for their fellow black man ...for example , how can a country producing oil still experience fuel scarcity after 50 plus years of independence , this is not a prayer issue ,it is sheer wickedness ( and cannot blame the white this time around ), it is a common sense issue that we can resolved in a couple of days if we are serious but we will rather pray over it and laze around the street looking for a miracle ..life is not processedlike this

Religion is a cultural system of behaviors and practices, world views, sacred texts, holy places, ethics, and societal organisation that relate humanity to what an anthropologist has called "an order of existence"... with the position china and India is found, i would wonder the actual definition of religion. cos i work hard to keep my rap intact
