Sandralight:
I downloaded a money tracking app on my phone and I put any money I spend to the smallest amount and now I know how much I spend on things especially the unnecessary things and this was able to make me cut those things out.
It's really a game changer

Not should be the only reason to attend a church. Social and release stress nothing more or less.

Besides, the reason we are drawn to foreign religion is the same reason we prefer anything foreign.

It is deeply rooted in inferiority complex and white worship.

1. The reason Africans, particularly Nigerians, are drawn to foreign religions can be traced to several factors, deeply rooted in psychological, social, and economic circumstances.

One of the primary reasons why many underprivileged individuals frequent religious institutions is due to their upbringing.

Religion, passed down through generations, becomes hereditary. Additionally, many of these individuals seek financial breakthroughs, hoping for miracles rather than relying on diligent work.

They are often told of ancestral curses that must be broken through prayers, creating a dependency on religion for any hope of progress.

This situation amounts to mental slavery—a powerful tool that effectively keeps people mentally subjugated, enabling their control by external forces.

The only escape from this cycle, for many, lies in achieving financial independence and distancing themselves from these controlling environments. Without such beliefs, many would likely not participate in religious activities.

2. Another scenario is the involvement of religious leaders, who, motivated by financial gain, view religious institutions as a business.

Some hope that their congregations will grow large, bringing in wealth and influence. Without these monetary incentives, such leaders might not engage with religion as fervently.

3. For wealthy Nigerians, religion often serves as a form of protection against perceived spiritual threats from "village people" or other supernatural forces.

They seek safety for their lives and finances, motivated by the fear of premature death or financial ruin. Without these fears, they too might not be as invested in religious practice.

4. On the other hand, some wealthy individuals with questionable means of acquiring wealth—such as through fraud, ritual practices, or other nefarious activities—use religion as a shield.

They believe that, despite their past deeds, the Bible offers forgiveness. In this way, they exploit the loopholes within the religious framework to feel absolved of their crimes, a phenomenon that echoes the historical exploitation of religious tenets by colonizers.

5. For other affluent individuals, attending Church is more of a social or fitness exercise, an opportunity to mingle, dance, and release stress, like Davido's uncle. I like him though.

They may not be genuinely interested in religion itself but enjoy the physical activity and social engagement. The poor, on the other hand, may dance in Church to momentarily forget their hardships, using religious spaces as a brief escape from reality.

6. Lastly, and the most painful one, inferiority complex caused by coercion and oppression from the oppressors to obey or perish. They had no choice than to obey. If na you, you no go obey? You wan die?

A Nigerian man driving the cheapest Lamborghini will be seen as richer than a Nigerian man driving an Innoson vehicle that's more expensive and durable than that Lamborghini.

Why? Foreign things are seen as superior. So, foreign religions that allow criminals to be forgiven so they can commit crimes again is better than Nigerian religions that send criminals straight to 6 feet so that evil people won't exist.

In summary, religious people love crime and evil, yet they complain about crime the most.

If man or woman wey wan rape you smart and get power pass you, you no get choice—you must be f*cked, no matter how loudly you scream and at a point, you'll begin to enjoy the sex and won't want it to stop. That's what Africans are facing.

We're enjoying the foreign sex already and as you all know, pleasure keeps people stagnant or full of regrets. My mom and your mom love this religious pleasure. Talking them out of it will make you look like the Devil.

Haven't you seen a woman who refuses to leave a dangerous and an abusive husband when advised by others? She'll refuse and call them jealous. Why? This abusive man is too good in bed—it's the pleasure and the drama. Which sets of people love drama and pleasure the most? Men for pleasure, women for drama.

I'll tell you a story in my next post of a Pastor that has been sentenced to death.

Ultimately, the driving force behind many people's devotion to foreign religions is self-interest. Whether seeking wealth, protection, or eternal life, it is not love for God that compels them, but the promises of personal gain.

This dynamic can be likened to the psychological strategy known as "future projection," where individuals are promised rewards in the future, keeping them hooked in the present.

Interestingly, this tactic is often used in relationships, where men trap women by promising material possessions or a luxurious future, much like how religious leaders promise heavenly rewards.

Just as women may fall for this trick, so too have men, who abandon African traditions in favor of foreign religions, drawn in by the promise of future rewards.

If African traditions had been upheld, there might have been a stronger foundation of honesty, transparency, and lower crime rates.

But in today's system, built on deception and corruption, people are more drawn to a democracy where lies are forgiven, and religious structures that offer the same type of absolution.

It is disheartening for those of us who have built our reputation on honesty and transparency, for we see the futility in this system, yet remain bound to our principles because of the trust placed in us by others. There is no turning back.

goran3310:
Eh. The only thing left is to strip naked and run away into the wilderness. There you build a house underground and start gathering food and hunting animals.
How about finding an additional job and maintaining your lifestyle?

I was going to hail this thread until I saw the above. Such a beautifully well thought out read the opening post was. All heard all the way through was iLegendd hasn't got time for any girls' phone anymore because iLegendd upped your game. Then you go and ruin it with the above.

Men change and women change too. Situations change for both and both adapt or they just wither and die. Think, dodo. The bird. It refused to adapt and is extinct.

The woman eats the right food, gets the right rest, exercise, etc etc etc and makes certain she doesn't bump her growing belly on calamity as she pushes and screams between her legs from her womb after 9 months. Consequence.

Nice thread, still.

CoronaVirusPro:
If there is one thing I love about criminals, it is that, they have love for each other.

Sincere and upright people don’t even share that kind of love among each other.

Criminals are always ride or die. They promote, support and share companionship with each other. You will never find them criticize each other.
