so what was ur reaction when all these were happening?

SirWere:
So fucking true. Just last week, my neighbour heard weird noises and Lo and behold, her "Family witches" were pursuing her. Africa is deeply immersed in supersition and instead of education to dispel such nonsense, our "educated" youths do the same! Friggin sad, really.

SUGARBEE:
Africans need to outgrow the fear of

You are Ibo right?
The word Superstition, is it an ibo word?
Someone said something like, anything that has an English name, is in Englishland.
The last time I checked, Once upon a time, Britain was burning their witches alive.
And today, if there's any place in the world that the practice of witch craft is prevailent, is in London. I mean, today with all their technological advancement.
And am certain that they are not africans.

I heard shouts, people were screaming at top of their voices. Young men wielding long whips and sticks and machetes.

The shout grew and cracks of whips followed, painful groans rented the air, not that of children, not young men but old men and old women.

Cries from the old as the young meted out on them cruel treatment of a mindless nature..

Different kinds of relics, talisman and clothes of different colours were taken out from their homes and burnt while they looked on with whips on their back..

What was their crime?

they were accused of being witches and wizards and their involvement in the traditional practice was supposed to be proof of this.

Many of these youths have relics of Jesus hanging on a cross, Virgin mary standing ever pious, pastors smiling in pictures hung on their homes and religious talisman hung on their necks.

Why is it that the old men are accused of being evil for keeping a relic of their own belief but you have yours tied around your neck?

This was a sad event that took place right before my eyes in my home town..

Old men and women were accused of being evil, their homes invaded, dragged out into the cold, beaten and disgraced with no shred of evidence to support the idiotic accusations but mere speculations and nonsensical effects of abject phobia for flimsy superstitious suspicion.

Nobody cared for the evidence of their crimes, no human bone or skull was found on them, no gun was found on them they only kept relics of their beliefs and that automatically makes them the bad ones.

This is the case in a thousand and one places through out Africa not just my home town have seen such mindless idiocy from the youths but the whole of southern Nigeria is neck deep in such imbecility.

Africans needs to grow out of these sheepish superstitions.

Africans needs to stop being Afraid of imaginary foes.

Africans needs to out grow the unjust lynching of old men and women and even little children with the tag of witches and ogbanje.

Africans needs to stop regarding little illnesses to be attacks by demons.

Africans should outgrow idiotic fear of terming owls witches when they cry at night

Africans needs to stop regarding convulsions to be demonic possessions.

Africans needs to stop pointing at rats running about the room to be witches

Africans needs to outgrow blaming an imaginary succubus and incubus for sleep paralysis.

Africans simply needs to outgrow sheepish baseless superstitions that are only products of their own fears and unbalanced mind insecure in their own self.

the hold such simplistic superstitions have on many minds is disturbing, the rate by which violence is being meted out on unsuspecting souls because of insecure unsure speculations and assumptions from a fearful mind is demeaning.

when will we outgrow the fear of abstract things that are not there?

when will flimsy placebo not being dubbed the work of spirits.

when will pastors and men of god stop dipping africans deeper into these superstitions and fears of ancestral spirits and grandma witch craft.

When are we going to outgrow falling prey to cheap con men wielding bibles and roman collar suits accusing an uncle from the village of being the architect of our economic conditions.

when will africans learn one can never change an economic status by praying for it, if wishes worked we all would be richer than Bill Gates now.

when are we going to untangle our minds from such retarding and demeaning beliefs roped around our fears of the unknown or the insecurity of our beings.

If we are going to grow as a people we need to first of all develop psychologically and ideologically and this means we have to shed much of these disturbing superstitions and mindless idiocy and primitive state absurd superstitions has thrown us into..

Anas09:
Pls don't get me wrong, am not making a case for witchcraft. Am a Christian.
But the Op sounds like superstitiion is just an African thing. All am saying is that, these things are done everywhere and not peculiar to Africa.
Am not implying that because these things are done there, we shd do them here.

I believe with time it will get better. You see, this superstitious nature of Africans was ingrained over decades if not centuries and the yoke cannot be shed overnight.

HCpaul:
To say the truth, you are right.
But witches exist o... Hmm... The whole world is controlled by the power of darkness.

And mind you, satan is the brain behind technologies and other scientific advancements.

#Sighs Damn here we go.. how did we get to this

Its quite ironic you just typed this with a phone and used the internet, baffles me how you are quite okay using these handiworks of satan

johnydon22:
No they don't... witchcraft is no more real than prayers working.. these practices, sorceries are all roped around the psychological mindset of both the person practising it and the person afraid of it.

If you start imagining monsters in a dark stairs, you will see that you will tend to fear these imaginary monsters and at the same will swear they are real..

HCpaul:


Sorry for that.

Did you use to read revelations of heaven and hell online?

johnydon22:
You really do not need to read them online, am really not interested in such idiocy..

We see the claims almost everyday, people even write books.. it is no new thing..

dalaman:
Our superstitious belief is actually the reason why we are lagging behind in the world as a race.
