That has always been the case with black man long before the coming of the white man & his religion.
Babalawos & juju priest have always exploited the gullibles. & presently most of those spiritualists have upgraded & repackaged as Pastors, Prophets, Imams etc just to remain in business.

So the problem is with the black man & not necessarily religion.
100% correct.

No don't compare them i guess for babalawo and juju prist are still better from the angle of not everyone likes to go for it and which will prompt you to work harder and stop false believe of marine spirit disturbing your progress in life.....

But for the white religion almost 90% of population fell for the scam ...
So i think they are different concepts for comparison undecided
You are not much experienced from your writeup

But we have religion in other developed Countries.

Our problem is misinterpretation of religion.

No true religion encourages corruption
No true religion support prayer without hard work
No true religion support ritual killings
No true religion support yahoo


If we truly practice RELIGION, Nigeria would have been a better place
Do they carry like gala for heads like Nigeria? Nigeria is the most confused black race in the world

How can you go to church on Sunday and steal at work on Monday? Is that religion?

He’s right. I’ll pray for the talents to remain and eventually manifest.

They told us to pray to God (not saying it is wrong to do so) while they worked hard at stealing the land all over africa....They set up Imperial College, London where imperialism (organized criminality and theft) and imperial strategies e.g. calling africa 3rd world or blacks "monkeys" to make them think less of themselves is studied and at the end of their atrocities they pray "God save the queen"- british island savages....

Google "Indian Residential Schools Canada" and you will see the role the catholic church played in colonization....

Prayer is the master key...that unlocks all doors.

But you have to put some effort in opening the doors.

As much they are facts based and biblical, our MOGs must learn to preach 'balance' in all these.
They will not because majority of the so call men of God are after what they can get from you.........they are the pulpit bandits/scammers

Check my language.... I didn't use force. I said some effort.

Can you open any door without a little push?
