| Islam › Re: Boko Haram And Religion by macof(m): 3:37pm On Oct 12, 2013 |
This op is a funny guy, I can't believe you trying to affiliate boko haram with christianity. The boko guys are core muslims, only muslims are bombing terrorist experts. I have never read the quran but I hear muslims hypocriticaly call Islam the religion of peace and I always say to myself "wat peace? All I see Islam showcase around the world is violence" Am sorry to you African muslims but I can't know that something is out of place and keep quite or lie about it. Most muslims I know, won't sit quietly if u talk abt Islam anyhow, they'll jst call boys to beat u up, Christians don't do dat, instead they'll debate with you and sometimes make you see reason with them. Muslim nations have a violent character. Only Qatar and UAE are different. honestly Islam is bad for this world 1 Like |

philfearon: I know exactly What ur religion is all about....But i have to tell u that those things u call gods are Demons and they report to the Devil himself...Some of the demons were angels prior b4 there fall,and God didnt take our their powers...They all{these fallen angels-demons} seek worship just like their Leader,Satan...Who else will they decieve into worshipping them except humans? They found gullible humans like ur forefathers,used their fear against them and made them worship them as gods....No you don't you don't understand anything about Yoruba religion. A few posts above you claim the gods are mere wooden images now you say they are demons. Why changing mind? You looking for any possible way to degrade the religion. And if I am to follow wat you posted here, Jesus is the demon and jehovah is satan, because they are the ones that say u must worship them, it's them that needs ur worship, they found gullible hunans like you and used your fear against you and forced you to worship them. Imagine u saying that Jehovah didn't take out their powers, why so? He is their leader, the big boss himself, satan is just the ambassador taking instructions from your God |

You don't even worship a deas Jew, you worship dust. Orunmila is bringing the knowledge of the universe, and acting as an example to his followers and children. A man cannot die, and resurrect himself after 3days. That makes your god a killer.

obadiah777: well, my belligerent and loquacious heathen friend you are very correct, Jesus was done by man. i believe the letter J only came into existence in the 1600s so therefore what was his name before the letter J was created ?. you sir are indeed correct. the name Jesus is an adaptation of the greek god zeus. he was a hebrew from the trive of juda ( hebrews 7 vs 14 ) and therefore spoke hebrew and hence his name had to have been hebrew. now if we look at what his name represented in english >>>>>bottomline christianity is useless. Your Messiah is done by men. Whether yeshua, yahwahshiwa, Jesu, Jesus, ieosus or anything. I might as well call him dog poo |

philfearon: You are stupid bro...Your religion is worshipping devil yet u are too blind,u dont even know what you are Worshipping.....It's christianity dat is worshipping devil. We don't even recognize any devil *hiss* why do u always show your lack of knowledge? Instead of you too ask questions. I post a link to you, so you could understand what the Yoruba religion is about, but you still swim in stupidity and lack of knowledge. I shouldn't blame u anyway, you are not Yoruba assuming u were I would have serious questions for you. But I would correct your errors because am such a nice guy 1. We don't worship devil, You are not the one to tell me wat we worship, when you don't even understand wat you are rebuking. We worship gods but these gods who take our case before the supreme God. Much like ur belief of Jesus taking ur case before God. You know the truth is that Jesus is your god, so if you accuse us of worshipping the devil because we worship sango and ogun then I'll accuse u of worshiping the devil for worshipping Jesus. 2. This guy, pls try to read and understand things, Ifa isn't a book, it's a divination system. where did you hear dat Ifa has a book? The babalawos are required to memorize the 256 verses of odu Ifa orally. I don't know if by now the babalawo training is done with the odu Ifa written but back in the old days they were taught the verses Orally. 3. The Bible is only 1200 years, Ifa's age cannot be figured out. Ancient Egyptians used Ifa, Ifa has always been part of Yoruba paganism it starts with the Yoruba race and it seems the Yorubas have a connection with the ancient Egyptians, making it even harder to assimilate when Ifa came to existence. Ifa cannot copy anything from that piece of paper |

philfearon: Paganism!...Paganism! Paganism!! The way satan has confused folks eh! Damn it!1. Satan doesn't exist, at least in my life and Mt religion he doesn't-so absurd to believe, an angel would rebel against God. No one is capable of rebelling against God, it's impossible 2. Christianity is really making ur brain rotten, how is using technology, embracing another man culture? 3. Everybody is a child of God, there's no such thing as only son, that's something for dogs to believe. I am a son of God 4. Where have you noticed me painting my paganism? This guy has a low IQ. Have you seen me denying paganism? 5. So I don't need anything to mediate with God? Hypocritical fool, wat do u do with the dead jew called yeshua? If you say I don't need gods to reach God, I believe u because even Ifa supports dat, God is already in us, we just need to grow in spirit. But the same applies with the dead Jew, he is dead and gone, he has even forgotten that he promised to come back(dats if he ever planned to come for lame brain Christians of this generation or any generation) 6. The Devil you know doesn't exist, and Men are the rulers of the world 7. Tradition and culture is a pair, every ethnic group has both. So if u are too loose headed to figure that out you had better back off 8. Can u explain satanism? because I knw u still don't understand paganism having read through this thread but now explain satanism.let's see why you call paganism satanism 9. Pls Wat religion blinds the worshipers? Answer: Christianity. one principle of christianity is to believe without doubt, exclude intelligence let your Bible think for you. Is that not sheepish? We buy rams and cocks to sacrifice but isn't it us that eats the meat? Did you read what I wrote about animal sacrifice on this thread? Am sure you read nothing, even if you did, you understand nothing, your brain is poo and you prove me right over and over again. wait a minute, does your God not collect animal sacrifice? he even requests for human sacrifice, or you don't really read your piece of compiled paper called Bible where you God instructed Israelites to make sacrifice of all kind to him,and am sure if he could ask Abraham for human sacrifice, he would have asked so many people which the compilers of the Bible refused to add 1 Like |

philfearon: So i lost everything to the Jews right and European masters right?have u ever heard of Orisa Ibeji? Am sure u haven't. They are a pair of the same entity, responsible for twins. There was never any record of killing of twins in yorubaland, although banishment was a regular punishment. When the Orisa came to earth as the twin children of Osun and Sango, the people thought badly of Osun and in order for her not to lose her place she banished them herself, but her rival wife Oba took care of the twins and they were a great blessing to the Yorubas since then twins have been cherished in yorubaland, and the time alaafin kori banished his twin sons calamity befell him and his throne until he died-a punishment from Orisa Ibeji. Ever since then it became part of our culture to call twins Taiwo ati Kehinde after the names of Orisa Ibeji. All this happened over 700 yrs before European contact. So I wonder where u got ur information that the Europeans stopped killing of twins in Yorubaland. The way u think am stupid to believe this religion is little compared to wat I think of you for believing christianity Ifa doesn't do phone calls, Ifa is high in omnisence and omnipotence. I use a cell phone cause it's technology, I use my money to buy it, using European technology doesn't make me slave to them, it's unlike u dat behave like dem, and life to die for anything they tell u. Yorubaland has been producing it's own clothes before European contact, Wat do u think Adire and Ankara is about? Abi it's ur masters dat gave us material to use? We have been making our own dye in many colors, and mixing materials to form a blend for over 1000 yrs yes they are huts made with clay, irons and bamboo but they are usually done according to your status. go to Ile-ife or Ilesha in Osun state you would see nice huts done in different patterns, size and comfortable conditions all according to status of the individual. Again this is technology, the internet and phone is jst a new aged advancement in science it has nothing to do with religion, or submission to the will of men And times without number Pagan 9ja and I have tried to explain our religions to you but you Christians are too dumb to understand- wooden images are idols nt gods, gods are spiritual/natural forces that take charge of the universe under the instructions of the supreme God. The wooden images are made by men but these gods are made by God, we worship the gods, bow and place sacrifice in front of the idol knowing that the god is nt physical but use the idols as a physical item to feel at ease, Imagine worshiping something u can't see u have to make something u can see to represent him. it's like a case of you being apart from your loved one, maybe ur wife but you use her picture to make u remember and think of her, you feel more at ease just seeing her face though the picture. 5 Likes |

FOLYKAZE: What exactly is Yoruba religion?the Yoruba religion is driven by the teachings of Ifa and worship of Orisa. I believe u knw this na, why ask again? Anyway it's the spiritual belief of the Yoruba people, seeking help from the orisa, offering sacrifice and praises to them in the hope of maintaining a relationship with them so as to gain assistance in life. However Ifa says Ori is wat we should worship first before any Orisa. Ori knows us more than we know ourselves, that is why achieving knowledge and keeping balance is essential for connecting with our Ori. These are the major principles of the Yoruba religion. |

Ifa is a system of divination, a way to seek and find knowledge, Ifa deals with life in relation to the spiritual. So Ifa is definitely nt a religion |
