NotComplaining:


Want to see a white man talk to God, let him catch a terminal illness.
Want to see a white man invoke demons, stand in his way of success.

You are a blatant liar and you lack commonsense!

Majority of whites will blame terminal illness on lifestyle and health and then go to hospital not babalawo - Africans will typically blame it on witchcraft, juju, enemies and then go for "spiritual healing" and help to fund pastors and juju people.

Most white men have no problem changing careers or looking for alternatives to success, they don't dwell on some spiritual or fetish reasons for lack of success!

Hahahahahahaha

Let's talk about the volume of efforts by the movie industry to paint a not so correct picture of superstitious beliefs(ie withcraft or wizardry ).

On a philosophical note,it is impossible to explain an abstract concept (without any physical appearance)or form as correct or factual knowledge. Arguably, we can only assume to know a great deal of it. This process is limited in metaphysics and Plato cautioned that we must draw a line of distinction between NUOMENA and PHENOMENA;the former is another word for assumption or what existentialists describe as COLLECTIVE CONSPIRACY,while the latter is, according to Plato,correct or factual knowledge.

Take the case of the cloud,normally it is viewed as a white fleecy substance that changes colour but it is ,as a matter of fact and science,the CONCENTRATION OF RAINDROPS.

Does the belief in withcraft assume the form of accurate knowledge as described above or it is movie producers and public sentiments overstretching the truth?

How did we come about such amount of knowledge and information about an inexplicable entity since we agree that it is an invisible realm(Has anyone conversed or even set his eyes on a witch or a wizard?)

In Africa most cultures consider the bird as the conspicuous symbol for witchcraft. You may have heard or read stories in the dailies or caught on the cameras lending credence to this belief. There are questions to be asked. If true why does withcraft takes as its symbol an object of flight and beauty? Ever seen a beautiful garden home to birds of diverse colours,flying across the lush green grass?

In Africa most people will stone a bird to death on the suspicion of witchcraft. As long as I am not invalidating the belief in it,I am going to have to ask us to prove that our knowledge of witchraft is exact and not an over-egged pudding?

This is written to investigate the undue influence African movies have had on our psyche in their attempt go metaphysical,full swing.

I think every culture believes in the existence of supernatural
things. Americans do. Phillipinos/as are worse than Africans in this aspect.

The difference is that only Africans tie their destiny to ghosts and witches. As a matter of fact, Africans embrace anything that encourages mental laziness. Ever wonder why pastors are billionaires in Nigeria? They inculcate the spirit of mental laziness by preaching prosperity through miracles instead of through innovations, inventions and brain work.

You forgot that whiteman created Mirror too, I wonder what the ignorant old woman could have used to see you in the smoke filled thatched hut if oyinbos didn't bring mirrors to Africa in exchange for slaves?

Americans are about the most ignorant populace in the so-called developed world,hence their myopic delusion and warped choice of leaders,i.e,trump.

What the Chinese (for example) think:
http://www.seeraa.com/china-spirituality/

From the posts on this thread, it seems that many wrongly latch on to this as reason for strengthening their belief in the supernatural. Legitimizing your supernaturalism stance based on statistics of believers is very weak to say the least.

Just because many people around the world believe something is true doesn't make it true. On the contrary, the fact that supernatural beliefs, once widespread in developed countries, is now relegated in favour of naturalism via the rise of rationalism being commonplace and the scientific method weakens the case for belief in the supernatural.

True, the statistics of supernatural beliefs is a worthy subject on its own but don't mistake it for proof.

OtemSapien:
And the ghosts were reported to them by who? Check, you'll discover that it's the Christians or Muslims or other religious people that are reporting the ghostly occurences. Actually, people who are dead live on, but they cannot appear physically in our own 3D world here. Anybody who reported ghosts must have seen or come in contact with them in dreams or lucid dreams and not in our physical world, or else the person was hallucinating. I have seen ghosts too, but in dreams and lucid dreams. They can't come into our physical world, else they are no more qualified to be called ghosts but human beings.

Another show of annoying ignorance. Do you know about Halloween? It has its origin in demonism. You will just hide in the corner of your room and be judging what is happening globally. Or you think the world starts and ends on naira land?

lol,oga other use dere witchcraft to developed dere place, but here in Africa we use witchcraft to harm one another, eg here in Nigerian u will see brother killing brother all because of land, G-boys use girls all in d name of making money, or else where in Africa where men use mangu mangu to catch dere wife of cheating, tell me which Western Nations do dis?

EWAagoyin:
There's a saying which states that: person wai never born before no go know how he dey feel to get pikin

Someone that's lucky not have encountered anything spiritual before will find it so easy to type and call people who believes in witches and spirit "backward, illiterate and so on..... Whenever I see them I just look at them like someone who ignorant of his/her environment.


If you think witches and ghosts doesn't exist go to osun river and kill a fish... The rest they say will be history.

So, what will happen ? You think if someone around d river is hungry and sees a fish in it he won't kill it ? Be deceiving yourself there. Powerful Osun goddess that couldnt help Aregbe pay full salaries. mtcmmmm...

You are not making sense, I am sorry but I have to consider you an ape. Sorry!

But let me try,
The world is now a global village, we eat, drink, buy, conduct business, travel to each other and even inter-marry. It is bound to happen in an ever changing world.

Buying goods from Namibia or China or Cuba has absolutely nothing to do with the religion, beliefs, spirituality of the people involved - it is pure global commerce!

You are very backward person, with your mentality you should not be allowed in civilized societies...I mean it!

BrutalJab:
Only Nigerians tend to know more than their parents and ancestors whenever an issue bout there heritage and traditions are mentioned.

It baffles me whenever I see small children on NL here saying that there is nothing like Witchcraft.
Cos of little education, they believe the Whites are their saviours.


Leave Ignorant Nigerians alone. Even Seun from Ogun state dey claim rubbish. SMH

Did their heritage and tradition save them from being taken as slaves by the whites ? Where were the old witches when their children were taken as slaves by d portuguess? I guess hiding in their covens. Ask Okonkwo about the superiority of the white mans double barrel guns that no priest could stop.

j1mmy:

No you sharap, monkey! You are still confusing yourself!

no need for insult s na...

The whole world believe in supernatural powers, sorceries, magic, tricks, etc.



The problem is some Nigerians, after a little half-baked education, deny these facts out of ignorance and the urge to appear "modern" on the internet.

Rosskii:


That is not true either. Americans spend billions of dollars per annum on consulting spiritualists like tarot readers, palm readers and psychics who help them communicate with their dead relatives. They even have TV programmes televising it! In fact Africans are the ones dropping all those things due to Christianity and Islam.

New Orleans is the headquarters.

The Problem Of Local Litrate Africans Like You Is That,They Only Depend On Others Peoples Discovery. We Are In The Age Of Discovery,mugu Try Discover Something And Be Useful To Your Ghetto Street Atleast.
By My Own Spiritual Discovery; All Knowledge Produced Today,were Transplanted Into A Tree By God; The Tree Of The Knowledge Of Good And Evil. And Adam Ate And Became Wise. Today It Brought Inventions. It Was All Spiritual. Primitive.

kennygee:
Witchcraft is the ability to manipulate people in a way that is pleasing to the manipulator.

It's not until you use jazz.

Very nice definition.

Witchcraft is simply Manipulation.

Making people do what you want through unwholesome but non criminal methods.

When Peter was advising Jesus, saying, master no you won't die, Jesus looked at him and replied, " GO THEE BEHIND ME SATAN "..

When people force their beliefs on others it is simply WITCHCRAFT.. It is same way they use to impose wicked wishes on gullible people.

Anything someone does not do willingly is NOT acceptable to God. Jesus emphasized this repeatedly.

Hollywood Celebrities and musicians practice it. Watch the kind of things they put in their music videos.

Even if white people believe in "ghosts" and all, I still do not give a fvck about all the crap....Until I see the ghost myself....why must some peoples belief influence my sense of reasoning?

NPComplete:
Paranormal belief is different from paranormal paranoia.
How many of those Americans do you reckon kill innocent birds because their dumb arse pastor said so?
How many of them do u think see an animal they can't name and begin to shout like they just saw a ghost?
How many of them do u reckon believe their grandmother is behind their failures and drug habits?

It is one thing to believe in the supernatural, as a matter of fact, you can hardly be religious without believing in the supernatural and since most Americans are religious it is only expected they believe in the paranormal too, but it is another thing to constantly believe the supernatural are around u everywhere and are out to hurt you. Americans don't explain everything away with the supernatural as a matter of fact, they welcome scientific investigation of such things. But these backwards asshats in Africa will just say "it's not everything science can explain" without first trying to explain it with science and blocking every attempt to investigate it because they are comfortable in their delusions.

This thread is another failed attempt at justifying the pervasive proclivity for supernatural paranoia that is currently gripping Africa and fueled by fake pastors.

Fail!!!!!

This is one of the problems of half-education. Someone told you that
your grandma uses a mirror to view you in the city and you accept it
without question.
How are you in any way different from paranoid cavemen?

CzarChris:
The word witchcraft isn't African in origin, is neither necromancy. Infact in summary, Africa dey learn work when it comes to the other side.

The world slavery is not of African origin, neither is ritual nor murder
but I doubt you want to be subjected to any of those or actively
participate in it.

A practice or belief is wrong if it is irrational, right or wrong doesn't
depend on where it originates.
