Sabbatical:



Here, the OP started by pointing out how prevalent money ritualism is. Somewhere in the middle, he discredited the assertion that money ritualism makes one a millionaire. After, he said people engage in it so they could get rich quick.

I mean, why would it be prevalent if it is not luxurious?

All I see is a confused fellow. 1st, you don’t believe ritualism gives money and you follow it up by saying lazy people indulge in it to be stupendously rich. Isn’t that conflicting?

My stand. Money ritualism is real and true. And it is a menace that must be eradicated.

Parents, teachers, pastors, society and government have failed in training the child morally. Moral values are so eroded. The worship of money is the order of the day. Even in the the family circle , if the husband is not rich, the wife and mother of his kid will ridicule the husband ND rain abuses on him and cheat on him with other men who she thinks have money more than her husband with thinking about the source of their wealth. Religious leaders are not left out preaching about prosperity and over night abundance and tithing and offering teachings. No employment, cost of living is so high. I don't know what's going on in this county

No need to go that far. Just visit some families and watch the way parents train up children.

Another anti church report. How does going to church or listening to prosperity messages relate to ritual killings? How many of these so called ritualists can you connect to any church in Nigeria??

This is why I personally attack some senseless Christians. Obviously, this report was written by a southern Christian. You blamed your church, you blamed pastors and priests, but left out the main perpetrators of ritual killings in Nigeria.

Oh my dear friend, I have been shouting it from the rooftops since the 1990s of the destructive effects of evangelical Christianity. Sadly, I feel vindicated for all my predictions about how prosperity preachers and the magical thinking they fiercely promote would eventually eat deep into soul of this nation.
Today, with a minimum of 5 churches in every street in allost every city in Nigeria, this country predictably lost it's soul.
If you believe that a particular church or particular pastor or particular monetary sacrifice to church or pastor can magically transform your life( money ritual my definition) , then you are mostly to also believe the words of a native doctor that other forms of sacrifice can also bring prosperity to you.
It is the same magical thinking, the only difference between the level of desperation.

Magical thinking promotes more magical thinking.
If you fall for pastor's BS, then you are vulnerable to fall for the native doctor's BS.

This is the kind of result you get where the majority of the society believe that the spiritual controls the physical. Thereby using the “spirit” of another being to appease the “spiritual world” to elevate their own physical status

gadgethead:


Well judging by the fact that majority of Nigerians are still suffering irrespective of whether they did money ritual or not, l think l will continue to do honest hard work for my money. At least l won't be chased by ghosts of victims in my dreams...lol
