Don't accuse a religion when you know nothing about the religion!

America claim to be a Christian country but there is no single country on this planet that is Christian.

For your information the Catholic is not a Christian group!🙂

The group name "CHRISTIANS" came to be due to the teachings of a first century Jewish carpenter called "Jesus of Nazareth"

There is no single nation on this planet today that's practicing what he taught but his disciples are gathered in all the countries around the world practicing what he taught them.

So before you say Christian country try to know the things Jesus who is called "CHRIST" commanded his disciples not what false religionists are claiming?🤔

America is a Christian country, " In God we trust is their slogan " the crusaders under the roman Catholic Church has killed more than our African tradition let it sink.

TenQ:
The first sentence defines a primate devoid of spirituality !

BTW
Spirituality refers to a personal sense of connection to something greater than oneself, often involving the search for meaning, purpose, and transcendence in life. It emphasizes inner experiences like peace, interconnectedness, and values beyond the material world

1 . To be spiritual, You have to depend upon SOMETHING or SOMEONE beyond the Material World for your inner experiences.

2. An Atheist is a lost individual who desire to define himself as one who lacks a belief in existence outside the physical existence or the lacks a belief in the existence of spirits.

He doesn't know that a rational human being CANNOT lack a belief in anything he has an an opinion in.
So you didn't read where he said that be believes in Orisa? Is Wole Soyinka greater than Orisa?

The screenshot below will help you because you obviously don't understand what being an atheist is all about. I don't want to argue with you again, you can do further research yourself. Have a good day.

Atheists are confused set of people the only reason why they claim there is no God is His invisibility so how can they believe in spirits?
Are they now seeing spirits?😟

You can't be self aware and believe in a made up entity.
I disagree! Some of the most self aware individuals out there are those who say they are grounded by their belief in either one god or idea or the other. People who have no such grounding are usually many of those who are least cannons. 🤔🤔

1. Yes! Back then (and even now if seems) people who wish to know if any religion without a book would need to engage the help of one who practices said religion. A money ritualist orisa worshipers is such a person too. 🥱🥱

2. Orisa has nothing to do with how I walk or talk. It is an ideology wholly external to me. 🥱🥱.

2. I should keep quiet about the attrocities that aww associated with orisa worship even in Nigeria??You would like that very much, wouldn't you? Nonsense! 😩😩
You seem to be alienated to what pastors and Alfas do

You don't know much about it, no be everything be book

Which book did Adam read, Abraham the father of Faith and Abrahamic religions, Moses, Joshua.

Which book did Cain read before killing his brother

Noah etc
You will do what you will do no matter what any book says

You do realize that you are merely rambling at his point?🤔🤔

I made it more than clear that so long as anyone can claim what they do is orisa worship, your ramblings mean absolutely nothing given there are no universal laws or principles to help us differentiate orisa worshipers from the so-called frauds. This is simple! 🥱🥱

Shei this man protest during Johnathan's regime when fuel was 170 ,a bag of rice wa 6k when we use to buy 2 eggs 50 naira, 1 round bread 30 naira...today na religion him dey discuss instead to go protest....I stop taking him serious Long time ago .
He also protested against non-recognition of Jonathan as the President during Yaradua saga with the likes of Tinubu, Bakare & co when the likes of Edwin Clark were praising them all the way from their hamlets.

Will you take him serious now considering this revelation? Ode oshi.

I respect you a lot but don't care about your religious beliefs. You said one appeals to you more. That's okay. But it's not all about what appeals to one.

I think that man is better than you in this. He at least embraces the gods of Nigeria, while you, a Nigerian, continue to brandish the gods of your Islamic/Arabic colonial masters over the head of your people, 1400 years on. 🥱🥱
