Why Didnt The African gods Prevail When White Colonialist Were Invading Africa? by Nobody: 12:55pm On Nov 18, 2018
It is often argued that the whiteman's religion or Christianity isn't working for us.

Why didn't our gods then prevail against the gods of white-men?

It was like an away match and the gods-of-the-lands had all their reputation to protect so why didn't they prevail against what some of us tagged inferior?

Christianity brought with it something different including the 'goodies'.

What you need to understand is that it is hard to control the will of people. You don't know what they may pick IP or dump. The gods had their power but can not compel people not to follow the new god.

With the new god having more followers, ultimately the indigenous god will be relegated.

The will of the people cannot be controlled, especially if you're not offering something better, plus easy worship.

Jesus and his apostles (the founders of Christianity) were Jews not Europeans.


Europeans, as Africans were idols worshippers until they converted to Christianity.


Idols are demons. Stop worshipping them.

It's because it's not the gods that have been performing any of the strange actions attributed to them earlier. It's human beings themselves.

Don't be surprised when Yahweh, Allah etc will also fade away in the far far future. Then you'll start getting amazed that how come they are no more well known, despite all the 'miracles and MIGHTY MIGHTY WONDERS' people like Kumuyi, Oyedepo, Oyakhilome and Reinhard Bonnke have lied that their god did.

Aferk 10:16-19
16. For it is time to lliberate the minds of the homos of the world and redirect their focus. For Negre worship Alla and Yahweh whom they did not love with their soul. But they worship these gods by compulsion. 17. And they fear the things in the supposed books which they call the holy books, saying, all they who challenged these gods were killed by these gods, therefore we shall not speak against them or challenge their meaningless philosophies, because the way of these gods are higher than our own way. 18. Behold, Yahweh and Alla have been cast into the cage which is spiritual. And they shall be judged by the mouths of the homos of the world for a thousand years. 19. For the judgement of a bad god are ridicules made by the mouths of those whom they have formally enslaved. For in the days when Baalim was captured by Yahweh, he was ridiculed by Elijah and other prophets of Yahweh.

lol . . . What a dull response!
Both G(g)ods inspired their own people spiritually, tactically and technologically. Jesus triumphed emphatically.
Stop the plenty talk.

Both the African Gods, and Jewish or European manufactured Gods are not the the Almighty Creator.

They are all hurstlers like you and me but on a higher level.

Only the spiritually ignorant people especially the religious ones worship these entities.

They have no reason to be here anymore so they ran away.

Now the Jesuit and Lucifer have taken over and enslaved you in their holographic matrix. You think you are living on Earth but you are living in a computer simulated version of Earth.

Alright, wise one. But if you are so smart and all knowing, then of what particular use is this thread apart from being an avenue for you to insult?

Because life is turn by turn......as our people talk am.

The only thing is that you won’t be around to see the religion that takes the place of Christianity.....since human life is short.

Anyway, I believe a reformed Illuminati will be the next powerful religion and money will be the new messiah.
We’re already worshipping money in our churches, what is remaining is just the replacement of Jesus’s name with something else.

.... even the good things the whiteman's God gave us via whitemen our gods wont allow us enjoy them.
Jesus thought us to apply wisdom and own things but our gods thought us nothing but stealing of destiny, killing of goats to appease them and more, and we are have people protecting our own gods.

Most of us try to discredit Christianity with science forgetting that 99% of what we see in science were unraveled by Christians.

Because when imaginary beings fight, reality wins and the reality of the conquering Europeans access to firearms displaced all other primitive techniques.

Christianity isn't a white man's religion, anyone who thinks that is simply ignorant.

unfortunately, thats waht some of us here tend to argue. They claim white-man religion is Christianity forgetting that whites also have witches and the equivalent of Sango and Amadioha.
I wonder why the African gods couldn't protect Africans and Africa.
There was no time for demon possessed priest to demand goats and pepper soup ingredient as sacrifices i quess.

The same way Yahweh couldn't conquer people with iron chariots. When you bring superior firepower to the battlefield, gods remain in their hideyhole spiritual imaginary realms.
