Nigerians are said to be one of the most religous people on earth.. This raises many questions in my mind, some of which are in a way related to the present circumstances in this country. I'd like help in answering some questions, I've really been beleaguered by them. So my fellow learned Nairalanders, your opinions please. No bashing or insults allowed.
1. Does a total belief in the concept of an all powerful and infinite God, limit our mental capabilities?
2. Does it make us lazy, taking our thinking back to the stone age era, in which all phenomena were seen as the work of the gods?
3. Even if we have understood some of science and nature, and believed that its the work of an all powerful God, then what next? Sit back and relax?
4. How do we relate our belief in God to with that in Science?
Please I'm no atheist.. On the contrary, I'm a strong theist. I'm just thinking out aloud. Maybe answers to these would help boost my faith and solve a few problems in Nigeria as undeniably our problems are mostly psychological.
