Christianity is a white mans religion and Islam is the Arab mans religion. Why are we letting these religions tear us apart? Sometimes I wonder do muslims know that they are black? do Christians know they are not white Many arabs see blacks as inferior, and white people are racist towards black people similarly.

Or am I the only one? You do realize your ancestors were not muslim or christian right?

Were Africans united before the coming of these religions?

Why is race of importance to you where religion is concerned? They are in fact two separate issues that you attempt to jumble up together into one.

Is this about religion or about race for you?

Where the ancestors who were not muslims and Christian's united? Where they more united than their Christian and muslim progeny?

They were not united because they didn't have a common enemy. I'm not sure if you've looked around but the world is trying to destroy black people and black nations. If we just said Bleep tribalism and became one tribe (like the whites do mostly, like china did etc.) We might stand a chance.
This is what China did. and look how successful they are. They became ONE. Now many don't even know that there were other tribes before.

It's about race for me. I personally don't care what God you pray to. But I even see some Muslims calling themselves Arewa Arabs?!?!?! And some christians would rather be white

1. So your ancestors who were neither Christians nor muslims were not united , since according to you, they did not have a common enemy, so why do you expect unity even now from those that are Christians and muslims?

2. So, you believe there is an enemy out there trying to destroy black nations, and I guess that the enemy you see is white, so why attack religious people for not sharing this "racist" idea of yours?

3. Tribalism has nothing to do with Religion but culture and this inherited from ancestors who you claim were neither muslims nor Christians. Yet another reason why your bringing up the religious line in this made no sense at all.

So, you want to venerate your ancestors but after it all, all you have done is show that the problem you see today comes from the fact that your ancestors were themselves not a united bunch to begin with. They created and fostered the divide you have and see today - not even religion has been able to blur those lines for any group in Nigeria.

You want what China has today but are you willing to die to see it happen in Nigeria. Are you willing to face the true enemies of your cause? Let me give you a hint, they aren't white!.
