Foly u seem to make some errors
1. Eko indigenes are The Awori people who migrated from Ife during the Great expansion Era, their land was however controlled by bini for a long time before the British came to dispose Benin and make Eko(Lagos) their colony.

2. Oduduwa was never thought by the Ife people to come from Igodomigodo(Edo's former name), they believed he was possessed by the Orisha who created dry land and as come to claim the Ife as his creation.

you know that ancient Yoruba told stories of how Ife is the first dry land created by Orisha Oduduwa

3. The Ooni of Ife would disagree with you, he claims that Oranmiyan went back to Ife after creating the Oyo-mesi made of his most trusted subjects to act as the very first parliamentary system in yorubaland. Oranmiyan had a son who became Ooni when he came of age

Mr President: You're uncouth, untrained and dishonest.

1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:

How does this translate to answering foolish questions generated from the darkest recess of a demonic brain?

You nursed a notion of Bini supremacy over the Yoruba in your heart by your tracing your ancestry to Bini, your bubble is bursted! Unfortunately for you, when the truth reaches the world, you and your co-travellers in your revisionist history would have to accept, either that, you are Oduduwa's children-Lineage Israel, or you are gentiles.

Odu means supreme!

folake, Worshipper of wood and stone!
Dude are high on dog poo?

He never said Yoruba as Bini origin
He only believes Oduduwa came from Benin, personal I don't because Oduduwa is still a mystery

Are u so daft to even think that if people originate from a place it makes that place Better than the new location

Mr President: Israel is a lineage, an heritage. We lost our place due to idolatry, wickedness and disobedience. The ones who refuse to repent will be punished soonest. The ones who repent walk in unimaginable victory.

John 4:23
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Oodua people are an heritage a blessed people.

Who lost their place when they accepted the gods of another man over the gods of their ancestors

And the ones who refuse to repent shall face the wrath of the gods, because it is sin
To self inflict mental slavery,l
To insult ones ancestors
To be ungrateful
To be foolish

Olodumare shall ripe ur soul into different parts and send u to nourish disgusting planets for not gaining enlightenment and seeking truth

Eze Promoe: [color=crimson][b]Well. The protestant churches where does Churches that broke away from the Catholic church because of false doctrine that was been spread by the Pope as at then. That was the general reason.
But there were also sectional reasons for the break away. They broke away because they didn't agree with the pope being the God on earth, because in those days, the pope was taught to be the greatest being on earth, and people worshipped the pope in place of God. There was also a certificate sold then by the pope, which was as the Certificate of Indulgence. It was sold at exorbitant price tag, such that it was believed then that when you buy that certificate, you have the right to do anything you like on earth and still make heaven.

There were other added reasons also, like for the English people, they were not comfortable with priestly lifetime celibacy, their priests wanted to marry because they believed that by doctrine, Aaron was a priest yet he married and had four sons. There are so many issues connected to this.

In the real terminology, a Protestant Church is a church that isn't Roman Catholic.

Eze Promoe: [color=crimson]The keyword there is christianity.
The Romans enforced their own rules into the catholic doctrines because as at then, they were the world superpowers. But the other protestants who knew the truth refused to be part of the false doctrines spreaded by the Romans, so they broke away.
[/color]
Are u joking?
The Romans made the rules of christianity

Payment of tithes dat u do in pentecostal churches were taxes to the the church under the Roman government's authority.

The worship on Sundays was introduced by catholics

Trinity was introduced by catholics
Mary's importance and significance and editing the Bible to claim her a virgin mother was done by the catholic church

Dude Catholics own christianity

Joshthefirst: Jesus himself said that those who do not believe in him are condemned already



Nonsense.
Go on then. There is a difference between being accountable and bearing the consequence. Be accountable for your sins, and bear their consequences Actually, that's what you do when you reject a substitute who Is willing and able to take up just punishment for your sins himself.

In response to the question of why I always speak of hell(I don't speak of only hell fyi, I speak of judgement and mans salvation too)
it is only when a man realizes the filthiness and consequences of his sins(hell) that he values and accepts a saviour who is able to save him.
Fear thats what drives people to Christianity and also what keeps them in it. when theres actually nothing to be afraid of

dalaman: My question to all the juju proponents is this, why is it that every thing about juju is never done in the open, why must it be hidden? We have seen what science has done and every thing about it is out in the open, every body can learn about it, try it and modify it if possible. The same can not be said for juju. Personally I have never seen juju at work, I always hear people talk about it, but when I ask more questions I usually get unsatisfying answers. I really do not believe in all these here say stories because if juju is real then how come the white man was able to conquer our ancestors with their ancient guns and stop them from practising their juju tradition by replacing it with the white man's religion? If bullet proof juju is real then why were we conquered with ancient guns? Why didn't the bullet proof juju save our ancestors? Why didn't we use the juju to make the invaders drop their guns and start farming on our lands because some people claim they have the juju that will make you beging to work for them once you come to attack them. Why can't we use juju to develop our lands? We use science and technology to develop ourselves, why can't we use juju if its real?
not everything about science is in the open, new research are made everyday. more things to understand about the earth and secrecy is very involved in science work at least until a proper theory is achieved

wiegraf: I do know about talking dolls, invisible bullet proof vests and running faster than bolt. They are all....surprise surprise... impossible. Except to, of course, gullible, foo.lish monkeys like you. I hope that's clear. I hope you don't expect no challenges when you make asinine claims like these, else I think you're in the wrong place.

Now, you show me how any of these things are not nonsense rather than claim some esoteric knowledge or you shut up. You may not have noticed that you and @folly have not addressed any single meaningful criticism yet, yes? So, I'm waiting.

Let me just reiterate, baboons like you deserve no, absolutely NO respect for perpetuating your unadulterated drivel. If you were extracting the useful bits from this, just as secular xtians use 'love thy neighbor' and ignore the rest, it would be a different story (admirable even), but alas that's not the case.

And if you think my not knowing the intricacies of your nonsense amounts to anything to me, well, you may be confused. I don't know those of Islam or xtianity as well, and I'm quite proud of it. Again, I'm not going to waste my time on your drivel, get in line. Wtf do you think are?

Mr President: I dont care what esu is, folake.

idolatry is the reason the Negro (Yoruba inclusive) is cursed by The Most High God.

Lemme give you a bone to chew folake

Ol\ODU\mare, ODU\duwa

2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
That means The whole earth is cursed by the most high God for Idolatry.
Every religion or spirituality practices a form of Idolatry

And besides the Most high God never asked anyone to worship or not worship. He rules his heaven and have left men to rule the earth

Christians dont even know the Most High God, you think u worship the most high God but u dont, u worship Yahweh

wiegraf: No, don't waste my time with you pure, refined dross. You deserve absolutely no, I repeat, NO respect. When you can confirm your claims then I'll take you seriously. Else, join the queue. I still have to read the koran fully, as apparently I cannot dismiss it as utter nonsense until I read the whole book for myself. I can't dismiss any claims that are obvious nonsense it seems. Actually, going by your mo.ronic reasoning, nor can you, see?
Will u just shut up when u need to?

You know nothing about the topic of discussion you are just acting foolishly to talk badly about something u know nothing about.

Atleast find things out for urself before putting it off.

You dat doesn't have a moronic reasoning, wat do u know about wat wat u are debunking? Pure ignorance is wat u are showing.

Read ur Bible carefully, research, read about the history of the church and christianity, visit certain worship sites.

A lot of people have been revealing the conspiracy of the church for centuries.

And where the catholic church flaws, the whole of christianity does because christianity owes its existence to catholism

caseless: we had d same argument with one of friends last time. The issue is, we shldn't throw our weight behind any 'armchair survey' conducted by an individual like this particular one. If u break it down well, u'd see what i mean. E.g, take asia, the most populous continent, with most populous nations(china and india). In china, islam is second after bhudism/chinese religion. In india , islam is also huge. Then, come to africa and u'd see that frm north to west africa, it is mostly islam-drawn. East africa, central africa etc, islam have significant presence here. I never talk of middle east first oo. America and europe whr u say belong to xtainity is whr most of the atheists of over 1 billion are. They are millions of muslim in europe too. So how xtainity take get 2.1 billion?
Guy don't compare Islam with christianity abeg

Christianity is surely around that number.

And Buddhism isn't Chinese religion. It's just practiced widely in china

Hinduism is even more prevalent in India than Islam.

Islam only has mouth in from North Nigeria up to the middle east and with exception of Israel and India

NeoTesla: Before any mention of Paul or Peter going to Rome, the disciples of Christ were already called Christians at Antioch (Acts 11:26). Consequently, Rome is immaterial to a person's Christian status. Jesus Christ himself has already given us the way. Many Catholics I know try to suggest that the teachings of the Catholic church supersede the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Lol do not deny ur brethrens in Christ

Catholism was founded by Paul, and Peter is even regarded as the first pope

Original Jesus wasn't a Messiah of salvation for the world, he was honored by his apostles as Messiah of the Jews
Catholics have re-edited the Bible to seem as if dat was Jesus mission from the beginning

Jesus failed to be the Messiah of the Jews and in a bid to use a living man as a figure for brainwash and political influence the Romans re-edited the books of certain early Christians, some were even working for them.

Why do u think Peter and Paul fought? Paul was leading people away from wat the prophets Jesus preached. Paul was claiming wat Jesus never claimed.

Read ur Bible carefully and stop being a toy to ur pentecostal pastors

Right now I am watching TV, champions TV to be precise. It's a church TV channel owned by "Champions royal assembly"
My aunty goes to this church and she's even there right now

Deliverance moment begins and a vampire claims to posses a young woman. The vampire spirit got into her through Watching Vampire films eg. Twilight, Underworld, True blood, Vampire dairies etc.

The lady has been addicted to vampire movies and she actually became a vampire through the demon that began to posses her.

It also says there are 4spirits in her and they all come from the Marine kingdom

Joshthefirst: accepting Jesus makes you acquitted before the judge since he has borne your punishments for you.
Good deeds can never balance up bad deeds. I've said this before. God is a judge. You cannot be found guilty of commiting bad deeds and use good deeds to try to bribe him to enter into heaven.
Christians should Borne their punishment for demself, u cannot commit a crime and expect someone else to pay for u. Be accountable.

Accountability is not a Christian quality, u always blame satan for leading u to sin(when satan doesn't even exist)
You beg Jesus to wash it away and pay for ur sins.
such disgusting fellows

men like Hitler and Osama could surely make heaven. It takes 3 seconds to accept Jesus.

Commit all the sin u like now but just remember to accept Jesus before u die.

You Christians are really spoiling the world

Psalms was not even written by one person, David, Solomon and many others contributed to the book of psalms in the Bible.

However Moses is not one of them.

The deal of Christians bidin to the law of Moses is saddening, it is pure mental slavery, and self neglect.

These laws in the book of Moses is for the Israelis so if you are African u have nothing to do with the law.

Even if u serve the God of Israel (through Jesus) over the God of your own land, it still doesn't bind u to mosaic law, u have no covenant with Yahweh.

And the Israelis don't even believe in Jesus, so wats ur stress with their law?
