Look at the dishonest equation you gave here which does not represent what he said. Quite a shame.



Can you please post an honest equation then. Quite a frozen brain.

You displayed the lowest act of stupidity, when you alleged, without proof.

You're simply bereft of common sense.

Otherwise you would have noticed, that religion and religious beliefs are my concerns.

Christianity just happened to suffer collateral damage from my writings.

Christianity just happened to suffer collateral damage only in your brain.
The height of stupidity and madness that you display here against christianity is what you call common sense. Quite a shame.

Are you some kind of "Christianity Avenger" now?

Christians come here, to expose the absurdities of religious idiocy, and that's why they get trashed.

Christians get trashed only in your small mind. Keep deceiving yourself.

I know that the scope of your madness covers religion but i am only narrowing it to christianity. I dont have time to waste.

For the christards talking about the efficacy of prayer.

Lets compare religious Nigeria with Atheist Japan

1. GDP - Nigeria [ $484billion] , Japan[ $ 4.412 trillion]

2. GDP per capita - Nigeria[ $2640] Japan [$34871]

3. Human Development Index - Nigeria [ 0.514 (low)] Japan [ 0.891 ( very high) ]

4. Income inequality (gini ) - Nigeria [ 43.0 ( medium)] Japan [ 37.6 ( medium)]

The funny thing is that Japan's population is just 127 million while we have around 170 million people here.
That means we have at least 40 million extra prayer warriors. Such a huge failure of prayer.


Prayer has no power apart from the placebo effect which makes us feel better when we pray. But am sorry peeps, placebo effect has no effect on national development that's why I used two countries as an example and we can see the result.

The defence for the average Christian falls into 2 categories ;

1. Christians don't pray enough and lack faith - I don't think Nigeria lacks prayer. We have the great mountain of fire within us. We pray on any and every occasion. Concerning faith, out of 80 million Christians you can't tell me we won't have at least 1 million faith filled Christians. Even if its 1 Christian with faith its enough because prayer involves you inviting your mighty god to the party not you literally doing the work yourself. In 56 years of our independence you can't tell me that no faith filled believer has tabled Nigeria's case to his god and received a good response.

2. Its not Gods will - you can say that for a request for a Ferrari or a prayer to be a president of a country. But consider a country like Nigeria, why is it against God's will to prosper us.
