Poverty is why many people are religious and churchy. When these same people relocate abroad and see that their prayer requests are easily met in their new locations, they lose their religiosity.

Religion is a reaction to poverty. Faith is a more reliable judge of Godliness. That is why after salvation, Christ taught more about wealth. Because without wealth, your spiritual health is at risk.

Poverty alters your perspective. You make enemies out of innocent people. You blame ancestral curses and village people for your poverty, when in fact the problem is your location, which is overpopulated and underfunded. And fear of enemies, rather than love for God, drives you to church

Exactly, most people don't worship God for been their creator but because of worldly things hence the reason most rich people don't care about God and how they live their life

Religion is made for Africans,
one religion teaches people to kill for 72 virgins.

while the other is bent on making people poorer,while their religious leaders gets richer,buy private jets,build expensive schools that more than 70% of the donors can't afford to send their children to.

He is rightly not right on this. It's not poverty that is driving Nigerians to churches, but fear of the unknown.

Before you can beat this guy in a debate, you have to work hard or bribe all the judge with a reasonable amount of money that those judges can't reject...

This man is good all rounder, is just that sometimes, he meddle into what he's not suppose to meddle in...

He just said the plain truth...

God bless you Nigeria future president wink

This is very true, poverty is why most people go to mountains and every church service, that is why in developed countries they don't carry religion on their head like Nigeria which is the poverty capital of the world.

Where's the lie?

The way Nigerians flood Facebook posts on prosperity these days shocks me.
"Amen", "I claim it", comments left right and centre

And they'll chew up anyone that makes the mistake of telling them to stop dreaming and get to work

Yes I agree with you but u are haughty and that will be your fall if you don't change..people go to school to acquire knowledge of this life ..u see some reading books up to phd level just to gain higher level of knowledge of the world ,now children of God keep going to church to continue to learn of God and eternity cos eventually that is the supreme reality of our existence and reality ,blessed is he who thirst of righteousness for they shall be filled..the hunger for God is the only reason the saints of God goes to church ,nothing else because God gives the earth to human beings both good and bad benefits from the world but eternity with God is reserved for only people that loved God and worshipped him in truth and in spirit

True. So should religion be scrapped away in Africa in order for it to grow and develop ? If you're on a tight budget and in need of a gaming laptop, check out my signature for the link to an ASUS core i7, 2gb nvidia graphics 17inch laptop for sale.

But no where in the other religion does it say give your resources to others if the people giving actually looked into their own books instead of allowing some interprete for them

He may be right to be honest...

Here you don't see white people going to church regularly on Sunday not to talk of weekly program...

Only the elderly usually attend Sunday worship...

What we Africans are looking for in church with multiple prayers has been sorted by the government

Constant Electricity
Good roads
Access to medical
Abundant jobs
Security
Good free Education for kids

What else?
Now as a white man, when you have access to all this...you will believe you don't have buisness attending church on daily basis...

Tho they are religious and they pray daily...they only do that in their house...

Re: Poverty Is Why Many People Are Religious And Churchy - Reno Omokri by franchasng: 9:26am On Sep 15, 2021
Absolute truth.


Give most Nigerian Christians financial empowerment and they will stop going to Church.


Many Nigerian youths become born again as soon as they finish NYSC in their effort to bribe God with fake righteousness to get a good paying job, once they get the good job and start earning heavy salary and acquire luxury cars and apartment, they remove their Church cloak and activate clubbing, partying and fvcking mode cool



Same applies to Nigerians looking for Visa to travel abroad; they turn overnight prayer warriors doing 90 days dry fasting, but once they secure the visa and travel abroad, hehe, they turn to atheist telling you how no God exist and spending all their time doing overtime at work to buy latest Gguard to attract Cardi B grin



That's why despite having the highest number of Churches and Mosques in Nigeria with over 90% of Nigerians forming religious and righteous, Nigeria remains the world capital of corruption, wickedness, bad government, worst governance and home of crimes and terrorism cry

Sure, 1, they are idle, 2, they believe so much in miracle, 3, they believe someone is behind their poverty or any other obstacle they have encountered in life, even headache.
I as a case study, since I left Nigeria in 2016 as a result of Buhari's effect, I have not been to church up to 10times, infact I only go to church at every end of the year, while I was a regular in Nigeria ( full time Dunamite)
