Why Is Africa The Poorest On Earth Despite Been The Most Religious? by simongonner: 6:13pm On May 30, 2012
Isn't it quite
strange that Africa, the poorest
continent on the face of this
planet is also the most religious...?
I wonder how many have
considered this..It seems god
rewards the religious with
poverty.The fake pastors and
Imams don't have to worry about
poverty, as they can rely on the
tithes and zakat of their sheep like
followers...
Everyone wants to pray away a
problem, instead of getting up to
do something about it.....

Great question!

For me, these are the kind of question one ought to dedicate to by all means necessary.

The main reason for the lack of or not enough financial capacity going around on the continent has many facets.

The number one reason for the lack of financial independence within the continent is due to 'unfair' trade.

Unfair trade has become the standard set by greedy politicians and happily accepted by all their customers.

Previously, i used to blame foreign governments for exploiting the continent by creating the enviroment whereby they are the ones dictating to our farmers and traders what is or what isnt in regards to what suppose to be a joint partnership, 'fair trade'.

Eventhough all the foreign governments that are exploiting natural resources and agricultural genius, a tiny portion of the blame is directed to the current political class.

"Unfair trade has become the standard set by greedy politicians and happily accepted by all their customers."

Assuming our politicians had any confidence in you and I, they wouldnt have the nerve to be selling legacy for less than appropriate.

Democracy is a failed African experiment.

Because religion is a scam. People needed a reason for why things are the way they are and some guys claiming to have heard from God came together to give one to them.

The Abrahamic Religions.

The Abrahamic Religions are the origin of the foreign distruption that began one thousand years ago.

In other words, the Abrahamic Religions are a combination of fakery and faleshood that has existed for over a thousand years.

The Abrahamic religions are solely responsible for the attempt to destroy and obliverate all traces of continental historical architectural, archeological, books, commentary and any other works of literature that they could find at the time.

Both Christianity and Islam ran a sustained attack on all and every of the various civilisations on the continent.

Recently, modern day historians are able to make use of 'state of the art' technology in order to salvage historical records.i e Cheikh Anta Diop, Ogundiran e.t.c

The Abrahamic religions was introduced to the olden day continentals under duress.

Both Christianity and Islam was introduced into Africa during the slave trade.

Therefore, Christianity and Islam are malicious ideologies due to the fact that they are one of the last bastions of the horrific Arabian and Transatlantic slavetrade.

Christianity is the last condition that currently remains from when it was forced upon people during the Transatlantic slavetrade.

Islam is the last condition that currently remains from when it was forced upon people during the Arabian slavetrade.

These malicious programs are causing people to disregard reality and as such, causing a different and counterintuitive look, the making of non productive citizen.

The Abrahamic religions are malicious, occultic and untrue.

The Abrahamic religions peddles a philosophy thar tells one to hate ones own people and love foreigners instead.

The Abrahamic religions peddle a false representation of history.

Foreign Education.

Just because we use a foreign language, should never immediatly translate into adopting
their education system.

Firstly, once we understand how we got the education system in the first instance then our viewpoint should be enhanced.

Western Education was the first tool used to introduce the toxic ideology known as the Abrahamic religions. And for almost 500 years, the only books available to us was either the Christian bible or the Quran as all other books and literature present at the time were aggresively and continuosly being burnt, confiscated and or desecrate.

Both Christianity and Islam used these same tactics, they would teach their language specifically in order to teach their malicious ideology that says love the people that are enslaving them at the time.

Nowadays, Western Education has a huge and systematic bias to the African.

What happens when a young adult is being taught that all their heroes are supposed to be foreigners.

Create a system of education that is fit for our purpose and cease the continuation of the current system that has a counterproductive curriculum.

Create a system of education that uses our secular history at the core of its delivery.

The aim here is to eventually swap our local languages with the foreign ones and use them as the basis of our systems of education and literacy.
Re: Why Is Africa The Poorest On Earth Despite Been The Most Religious? by Amujale(m): 12:32pm On Feb 24, 2020
Foreign History.

Again following a brand new and fit for purpose educational systems, African secular history are the proper ones for us to incoporate into our curriculum.

A good understanding of history ought to defeat poverty due to the fact that things that are oblivious to us before will now become available to us.

For instance, the African is God.

Once one can accept the fact that the African is God, that many of our parents are great people that one must defend their right to exist with all our hearts and minds, then that ought to translate into a positive boost into one's vicera.

The ideology that supports the potential for you and I as being limitless.

What makes you say that?

The Abrahamic religions are based on a combination of fakery and falsehood.

Most of the countries you state above are heavy peddlers of the Abrahamic religions, as in they are beneficiaries of the program that is currently enslaving the mind of our people worldwide.

The Abrahamic religions are olden days tools of enslavement and are the number one cause of the attempted destruction of countless civilisations, thanks to spirited and dedicated historians, history is able to withstand all those past set backs.

Now is not the time to applaud evil, but is the time to dust ourselves off and crack on from where our ancestors left off and use all our experience of modernity and begin to work towards fulfiling all of our dreams and their expectations.

1) The Abrahamic religions.
2) Foreign Education.
3) Foreign History.
4) Foreign Language.
5) Unfair Trade.

Everything you listed here comes under:-
1. Language
2. Education
3. Religion.

Example; history is using LANGUAGE to give EDUCATION about the past.

On unfair trade, its important you note that right from the colonial days, European colonial empires created unfair business treaties between themselves and their colonies in such a way to forever rip-off the natives. Unfair trade deal is just a continuation of that and its being maintained from generation to generation by having the system of education create elites to sign them. This article shows the origin and how the unfair trade deals were laid since colonialism https://www.africason.com/2017/11/how-western-nations-laid-foundation-for.html

Recently, I believe you must have heard of Ivory Coast president, Allassan Quattra, being easily convinced by France to go all out against the wish of other ECOWAS member states to sign off and peg the proposed new ECO money on the Euro, at a time when you'll think he would embrace the opportunity to disconnect his CFA and monetary system from France. He still sees France as his lord!!.

Once the system of education is changed, a new type of African elites would emerge within the next 40 years. This's the BIGGEST threat facing western establishments. The system of education we have today, among many things ensure that African people remain unconscious of history in order not to know anything about our bitter past experience with the west.

The reason religion doesn't impede success in those countries is because the religion they have evolved through their voluntary participation in nature.

Europeans knew what they were doing when they created Christianity.
Arabs knew what they were doing when they created Islam.

But, in Africa, Christianity and Islam were imposed on us. When someone imposes religion on you, it does the opposite, which is create disharmony, corruption, poverty, etc. That's the difference.

Totally agree with your summation.

Yes, heard about the proposed ECO and EU disasterous and treacherous deal.

Given that their neigbhours are against such policy, its totally shocking that any African country would think of stooping into such levels of treachery.

Its completely mindbogling, the notion that countries would even be thinking of releiving themselves of the right of responsibility on their own legal tender, stinks of greed and treachery.
