Fella, you’re missing the point entirely. Real Christianity isn’t about how loud someone screams, chants, or sounds like a goat in the morning. That noise you’re complaining about? That’s man-made style, culture, and tradition — not the core of Jesus’ teaching.

If you put your cultural biases and petty annoyances above the gospel itself, you’re already not following Christ properly. Christianity is about faith, humility, and love — not judging someone because their worship style irritates you. The moment you let “how it looks or sounds” dictate your faith, you’ve already elevated tradition over religion.

Stop pretending to be a “proud Anglican” while thinking your way is the only right way. That’s not Christian. That’s pride wrapped in nostalgia and cultural arrogance.

Is that different from YHWH, the God of Israel(only)? 🥱🥱🥱

How come when it comes to religion, we are always told what we should believe but never shown where to find exactly that, nor do we find people who in fact practice any of what we are told to think?

2. What you describe is pretty much what all religions do. Every denomination/sect within each religion pretends that among all the many denominations/sects within the same religion, theirs is the only right one.

In Europe, religion isn’t something dumped on your head from birth. Even children are allowed to think for themselves. My own family sat me down when I was about five and explained Christianity, Islam, Norse beliefs, atheism, agnosticism, and everything they could — and then they asked me what I believed. I said I didn’t believe in any god, and that was it. No punishment. No fear. No emotional blackmail. No “you must follow what your ancestors did.”

That’s the difference. I wasn’t indoctrinated — I was given a choice.
That’s how real faith works. Choice. Free will. Personal conviction.

If someone grows up being told:

“You must be Christian because your father is Christian,”

“You must pray this exact way,”

“You must follow this denomination,”

“You must accept this pastor,”

…then that person is not a Christian by choice — they are a Christian by conditioning.

You can’t claim to follow a religion if you never got the freedom to choose it.
You didn’t weigh options. You didn’t decide. You didn’t explore.
You were simply told what you are.

And the funniest part?
The Bible itself says the choice of faith is the single most important decision a human being can make. Yet most people in Nigeria never actually get to make it.

They inherit it like a surname.
They follow it like culture.
They practice it because everyone around them does.

That’s not Christianity.
That’s social pressure wearing a religious mask.

So when you see denominational fights — Anglican vs. Pentecostal vs. Catholic vs. “my pastor is better than your pastor” — that’s exactly why. Everyone thinks their version is right because they were raised in it, not because they chose it.

If you didn’t choose it freely, with information and understanding, then it wasn’t faith — it was programming.

A proud Anglican? I am ashamed on your behalf

1. You are one of the lucky few in the world.

2. Well, Europe is obviously not the standard as far as Religion and Christianity are concerned, as much of the rest of the world believes as the only way. There is literally a competition among the largest religions to claim the largest people in most every country outside of Europe(China and North Korea excluded).

3. The Bible also says a lot of things that Christianity as a religion does not believe in or adhere to. For example, the Bible God declared He is God of Israel alone, yet Christianity says He lied about that. Then, you also have Jesus Christ of Israel proclaiming in that same book that His Father, the God of Israel, sent Him only to the Lost sheep of Israel — the bloodline of the man called Jacob, who was named Israel by the God of Israel. And Christians also claim that He lied about that, too. 🥱🥱

Forgive me if I can't take anyone seriously when they claim to believe in that God and His Son, all while claiming they both lied.

4. It is politics to me — religion is no different from politics. 🥱🥱

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I’ll respond from the perspective of personal freedom, something we take very seriously in Norway.

“Lucky few in the world” — That’s not just luck; it’s the freedom to think for yourself. In Norway, children are often introduced to multiple beliefs—Christianity, Islam, Norse traditions, atheism—then allowed to decide for themselves. No fear, no punishment, no emotional blackmail. That’s the kind of environment where faith is genuine. Being able to choose is what makes someone “lucky,” not the country they live in.

Popularity of religion — Numbers don’t define truth. Most people in the world follow inherited religion, not because they’ve examined it, but because it’s what society tells them to do. Real faith isn’t measured by how many people practice it; it’s measured by whether the person chose it consciously.

Biblical contradictions — Yes, some parts of the Bible seem inconsistent with modern Christian teaching. That’s not the main point. The real issue is how religion is passed down. If someone is told “you must follow this faith because your family does,” that’s not personal conviction—it’s programming. Christianity itself highlights choice and free will, yet most never experience it. Picking apart theology doesn’t fix that fundamental problem.

Religion as politics — I agree; religion often functions as a social or political tool, especially when choice is removed. But freedom changes everything: when belief is chosen, it becomes meaningful. Without choice, it’s just tradition masquerading as faith.

The core idea is simple: faith only matters when it is freely chosen. Everything else—scriptural contradictions, population numbers, theological debates—are secondary. Genuine belief grows from understanding and choice, not inheritance.

Children really don't have a choice when it comes to indoctrination by their caregivers, you know?

2. Even your idea of faith is as sold to you by religion and not necessarily the truth of that which is outside of religion, you know?

3. This has nothing to do with Biblical contradictions but solely the fact that all of those religious ideas including Christianity DO NOT align with the teachings and doctrines found in that book called the Bible. Again, we are talking of a God who established Himself as God of Israel —He never proclaimed Himself the God of Nigeria, nor God of Norway, God of America, or even God of Babylon or God of Rome.

In the same manner that the Greek Gods cannot be claimed by the Romans, Mexicans, Nigerians, etc., as theirs(even though we know very well that the Romans did make attempts to do exactly), why should we then accept that people from other people can legitimately claim the God's of another people — blood descendants of Israel — in this case? It makes no sense!

4. The template for religion is tradition— religion and tradition are not two different things, actually. And even when there is freedom, it does not keep religion from following along the traditional and political template that underlies it.

Repent from what exactly?
The fact that you believe in repentance does not mean others have to be subject to your belief system.

Are you off your meds? What the hell are you talking about and, don't you dare respond to me with ChatGPT.

Nnamdipapa,

You’ve been barking at shadows and tripping over your own echo, so let’s turn up the clarity and the heat:

You jumped at me unprovoked, shouting “ChatGPT” like a man startled by his own reflection. Meanwhile, your posting history reads like the diary of someone scavenging for relevance — recycled scandals, bargain‑bin gossip, cassava panic, tribal chest‑beating, cheap politics, and whatever else you can fling to stay visible.

You call me unoriginal while your threads look mass‑produced by an overstressed copy‑and‑paste key. That isn’t insight — that’s intellectual poverty.

I’ve lived a life you can only comment about from the sidelines — military service, discipline forged under pressure, and advanced degrees earned through sweat, grit, and competence. Everything I claim is documented, traceable, and verifiable. Nothing about my identity rests on anonymous noise or digital theatrics.

But don’t mistake your loudness for strength. Your habit of lunging at strangers doesn’t make you bold — it makes you transparent. If anything about me confuses you, verify it through legitimate means: live confirmation, documentation, or whatever professional method you can manage. I’m not the one hiding behind a fog of performative outrage.

If my presence rattles you, scroll. If you want dialogue, act accordingly. If you want clarity, pursue it properly.

Attacking me at random won’t raise your standing. It only shows the cracks you’re trying so hard to cover.

And since you seem to crave theatrics, let me leave you with this:

A wolf does not flinch when a crow squawks. I’ve crossed storms that would fold you in half argr. So if you insist on shouting at the sky, remember — some of us were forged in colder winds.

—Son of Fire and Frost • The Truth Given Teeth • Freedom That Cannot Be Caged • Wolf’s Kin

And like I keep telling many others — if you truly doubt anything, you can simply get on a video call to confirm it. Every time, people go quiet when it’s time to face the truth.

Why are you triggered by a simple admonition to be more ethical and original? I honestly don't get the reason for your long tales of woe.

Nnamdipapa:

Nnamdipapa,

Scrolling through your posts is like watching someone collect headlines and call it wisdom. Every topic — from kings in Ghana to tribalism, marriage drama, and overpriced cassava — reads like a performance designed for attention, not insight.

Take your own words about Eze Chukwudi Ihenetu in Ghana: you warned Nigerians that installing a foreign king would “affect every Nigerian,” stoked fears about tribalism, and lectured on how “the youths are already out for blood.” You analyzed protests, videos of broadcasters kneeling, and alleged land grabs — all while positioning yourself as a voice of morality.

Then there’s your post about tribalists and hypocrites. You spent paragraphs attacking anyone who doesn’t “take a stand” for their beliefs, lecturing Igbos, Yorubas, and Nigerians about consistency, loyalty, and ethics. You demand others live in the regions they support, “practice what they preach,” and prove their integrity. Yet here you are, attacking me — a stranger — for supposedly “copying” or “lacking originality.” You rail against hypocrisy while hiding behind your keyboard, spouting moral grandstanding from IJEBU-IGBO.

Your words expose you more than me. You lecture on ethics, unity, and responsibility while your own life is spent provoking strangers online. You claim to despise hypocrisy, yet your threads are full of sensationalism, fear-mongering, and recycled controversies. You rage about tribalism in Ghana and Nigeria while projecting your own insecurities on anyone who challenges your keyboard throne.

I am no stranger to accountability. I am ex-military, educated, and my achievements are verifiable. You don’t need to take my word for it — a video call is enough, just like I’ve offered to others who tried to provoke me. Like them, you’ll find excuses rather than face proof.

Your keyboard lectures are empty. Your posts are loud, but your actions are silent. I walk with deeds and verifiable history, while you hide behind screen names and outrage.

I am son of fire and frost.
The truth given teeth.
Freedom that cannot be caged.
I am the wolf’s kin.

You can howl at strangers online all you want, but reality does not respond to your forum theatrics.
