And they'll drive to it via their potopoto road, and when their children are sick they'll run there for healing, and when their young men need jobs they'll go there for work....... there's religion and there's stupidity. |

Pilate2016: Bowing to Obas & Igwes is a sign of respect for a constituted authority but bowing down to an image created by the hands of a man is purely idolatry and it was was plainly condemned by God in the book of Genesis. BTW I was once Catholic but I left due to their doctrines. I'm of the belief that a true Christian assembly should operate according to the dictates of the holy bible and not communal doctrines. |

How will we think of building factories and industries to help ourselves instead of building mega churches all the time when we are busy bowing to the image of the white man, the same people that came to colonise us and destabilise our working systems. 3 Likes |

Paganism at its peak. Being deceived in the ok’d ways while refusing to do things the new way. Choosing lords over men when all man have but one Lord |
Re: Nsukka Dedicates St Theresa's Cathedral Church Building by Lifepodcastng: 4:07pm On Nov 20, 2020 |
Personally I think bowing down to anyone is wrong. I’d rather not visit an oba or igwe than having to bow down before them. People like to feel like GOD and there’s no other people who like to feel like GOD than the Obas and igwe. It’s wrong, it’s human veneration and not a sign of respect. It’s not by bowing that shows we respect people. Respect is given freely out of choice but making every take a bow before you compulsorily is you forcing respect. Do not bow to anyone be it man or woman, as long as they’re still in the flesh then you’re equal Abcruz: |

Ever8090: Maybe you were not deeply rooted in the church and does not know what was happening. I could still remember when holy water and oil was a taboo for other Christian denominations , but what is happening now Presently, some denominations want to dress like catholic priest on the pulpit Every thing done in Catholic Church has a deep reason, in no distant time, other Christian denominations would emulate it. 2 Likes |

You’re thinking like those in the Old Testament. The Bible says they were ignorant people who did not understand GOD (acts 17:30). If you think like them then it speaks so much about you. Carving an image is paganism full stop, there’s no two ways to put it. If you want to argue then go into the Bible to see that the romans were pagans, if they’re the ones telling you about Christ then you know it’s all a lie. Pilate2016: |
Re: Nsukka Dedicates St Theresa's Cathedral Church Building by Lifepodcastng: 4:17pm On Nov 20, 2020 |
I think you’re the one without proper knowledge here. You do not know Christ but have only known a religion. Bowing down to whatever thing is not good. Yes all those you’ve mentioned are guilty. If they weren’t, why will anyone bow to a maze? Or to another who says he’s a king? Who made him king over man? People have only made themselves lords over other men bc of their ignorance and for this reason they shall face the doom that awaits them. Look into the Bible for understanding, stop leaning on your own understanding. Pilate2016: |

You do not like the truth. You only love the shenanigans and gimmicks in your religion. Someone is speaking the truth and your antenna is up. When you religion is practicing paganism you’ll shut up. Worshipping the beast in ignorance and attacking those who speak the truth. Find a path in Christ and stop all this pls bonnyhope: |

Bowing down to an image is extreme ignorance. Religion is riddled with extreme ignorance and deceit. Calling ordinary men father. Making for the top by even calling them most holy father, revered father is pathetic to hear. Religion has never been the way. The true followers of christ know this. Religion is the system that exalts hypocrisy. Abcruz: 1 Like |

Ever8090: If you don't understand it,you rather research more abt it or move on If nothing makes sense abt what is done in the Catholic christendom at some point,it's not a brotherhood, you're free to go where makes sense . God is everywhere. But if you've ever prayed the rosary and had your intention answered sometime, then there's certainly Sth right abt it. The other person has said all that is to be said abt reverring images, so no need over flogging the issue. Bless |

Re: Nsukka Dedicates St Theresa's Cathedral Church Building by yuvisan: 6:57pm On Nov 20, 2020 |
Catholics do not worship Mary , in the same sense as worshiping God . She is accorded her due honour and highest Respect as the Mother of God Made Man , Jesus Christ, our Lord. WE actually ask her to “ PRAY FOR US “ Just as we ask fellow sisters & brothers here on earth to pray for us.— Sister remember me in your prayers etc. HER IMAGES ARE NOT WORSHIPPED BUT ALSO ACCORDED THE DUE RESPECT THAT WOULD BE GIVEN TO THE HOLY PERSON WHO THOUGH NOT SEEN WITH OUR PHYSICAL EYES IS ACTUALLY THERE ; WHY , BECAUSE CHRISTIANS DO NOT DIE . THEY GO TO LIVE WITH GOD , LIVE IN UNION WITH GOD. Remember the Words of our Lord Jesus “Whoever believes in me will never die “ and to the good thief on the cross “ this day , you will be with me in Paradise “ THE USE OF HOLY IMAGES ACTUALLY STARTED AS A VISUAL WAY OF TEACHING THE FAITH . Bible scenes were painted on Church walls and it was easy then for the illiterate members to understand. Remember there were even language barriers when the Apostles went to evangelize new lands . We do venerate the BIBLE —WHICH IS THE WRITTEN WORD OF GOD , WE KISS IT; IMAGES ARE THOSE SAME WORDS IN PAINTINGS , PICTURES, OR SCULPTURE. WE SURE CAN ALSO KISS THEM. If you really love the CATHOLIC CHURCH , bro/sis do not hesitate to come back . It is the true HOME OF JESUS CHRIST & MARY AND GOD’s ANGELS AND SAINTS . With lots of love in Christ Jesus. 1 Like |

I observed that in Nigeria, Catholic cathedrals are the most beautiful structures. I was more shocked when I passed a village main road in the East and the most beautiful structure along that road is a church. The other structures were many shanties and few modern living structures. The elites and even the poor are more willing to contribute to church building funds than to contribute to building of schools, etc. Do I blame the people? No. When there is failure in a human society, the people turn to religion. Why do people contribute devotedly? Because the contributions comes with a promise, that the ills of the land, will one day be solved. Pls enlighten me if I am wrong. Pilate2016: |
