So one question sir/Ma if we were already practicing our African traditional religion before the colonial masters came and introduce foreign religions like Christianity and Islam, are we not committing sins against our own African Gods.
The Christians/Hebrew believe that if you follow any other God except Jehovah and Jesus we are committing sins. Likewise the Muslims too who introduced Islam to us in Africa.
So what makes the foreigners religion and god's so special that we have to drop our own gods and religion for them., why is the majority in China and India not practicing Islam and Christianity.
I come in peace, I pray in Jesus Allah sango amadioha name you guys don't tear me into pieces

MaxInDHouse:


Can you say one thing that the gods of your ancestors promised you after death?

hammed71:

what if your foreign gods were deceiving you of the promises

MaxInDHouse:

I love this question!
What if you're SEEING all the promises coming true? hammed71

STEWpid:

You have not seen any promise come true.

1). You have not died before and come back. Even if you claim so, you cannot prove it brother.
2). If the promise you think you've seen come true is wealth, breakthrough or open doors, other people who are not in your religion also experience the same or even better than you.
3). Majority are Christians or Muslims because they are born into it. Same brainwashing that makes someone behead the other while chanting Alahu akibomb in anticipation for 77 tiny poosies in heaven. Just like the jihad by christian crusaders in the past.
4). Imagine, Nigeria has billions of churches and mosques and are so religious, yet they're so backward in everything and are also extremely corrupt.
Chai..

MaxInDHouse:
What has the gods of your ancestors been doing for you and your ancestors?

MaxInDHouse:


Guy before quoting me think deeply o because i am a Christian to the core and i can prove to you that so many promises the God of Abraham made has come true.

So are you ready to examine them or you're just here to argue in support of the dead gods your ancestors worshiped?

Hammed71, why do you bother yourself so much? We all have our own lives to live. No one, not even the most powerful individual on earth, can deliver the soul of another on the Day of Judgment, when we are all going to be judged according to how we have lived our lives while on this present earth. The righteousness or wickedness of one individual will not be assigned to or accredited to another.

Let me quote this portion of the Scriptures of YHVH Almighty, the one and only true God, the Creator of the heavens and everything in them, the earth and everything in and on it, the seas and everything in them, my Father in heaven.

1 Kings 18: 20 So Ahab sent word throughout all Israel and assembled the prophets on Mount Carmel. 21 Elijah went before the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If YHVH is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him.”

You see, hammed71, the event quoted above transpired at a time when the Israelites had forgotten the one and only true God who brought them out of the land of Ham, out of slavery in Egypt and placed them on the land flowing with milk and honey and had gone after Baal, the same detestable and abominable god of the former inhabitants of the same land which YHVH Almighty gave to them.

They had lost there way at that point. YHVH Elijah to show them their folly and bring them back to the Righteous Path.

So, on Carmel, Elijah gave them two options. If YHVH Almighty is the God that brought them out of slavery in Egypt and placed them on the land flowing with milk and honey, they should follow him. However, if Baal was the same God that brought them out of slavery in Egypt and placed them on the land flowing with milk and honey, they should follow him. But, first, he had to perform a great sign before them which only the one and only true God could and can do. You can read the entire chapter for the gist.

They were to choose between two options:
YHVH Almighty, the God that brought them out of the land of slavery and placed them on the land flowing with milk and honey and his great and awesome Commandments.

Or the detestable and abominable Baal, who wanted to drink, waste and spill the blood of their children, the detestable and abominable god of the former inhabitants of the same land they were enjoying milk and honey, as delivered to them by YHVH Almighty.

No compulsion.

STEWpid:

1). That is because you no longer consult them.
2). They will do for you what you ask them to do.
3). Don't forget that the whites that gave you religion were buying our gods. They only return the ones that gave them trouble.
4). While your religion tells you that your artifacts are demonic, burn them and throw them away, the whites stoles it from you and are showcasing them in their museums; generating trillions of dollars from it ever since.
5). Since the other gods are doing everything for you, yet, you cannot produce electronics, cars, etc. even common toothpick. You still depend on your slave masters for everything.
I thought since both of you are worshipping the same gods, you should be able to do the same?

Righthussle:


It's hard to believe that in this time and age some people still believe those lies in storybook like bible and Quran.

MaxInDHouse:


Guy i asked a question what his god has done for him you're talking about what the society can do as a whole do you know the difference between personal and societal problem?

HeatSeeker:



I am sorry, but this is unbearable.

THE FOREIGNERS CONQUERED YOUR ANCESTORS.

This is the only proof needed to reinforced the idea that their God is SUPERIOR. Their God gave them access to better knowledge and technological know-how that made it relatively easy to subjugation you.

If African deities were formidable, they would have protected their worshippers from foreign invaders and chased them away. But no, they didn't and couldn't; who wants to worship a dead god?

STEWpid:

Chai..
Why should you have such backward societal problems when almost everyone is either Christian or Muslim??
Because society is the people!!

MaxInDHouse:


You have not answered my question.

Now let me put it straight to you if you can answer:

What has your ancestral gods been able to do for you that you feel the foreign gods have not done for their worshipers?

STEWpid:

Whatever we summed up as god is only peculiar to the people and culture.
You can't be a Muslim without dressing like the Arabs and answering their names. Same as Christians.
That is why today, a Nigerian name will be Abdul Malik Ibrahim or Jeremiah Mishael - YOU CANNOT EVEN IDENTIFY SUCH PERSON AS A NIGERIAN OR EVEN BY THEIR ETHNIC GROUP!!!
Whatever our god has done for us is peculiar to us and whatever their god has done for them is peculiar to them.
The gap in societal growth and development between our society and theirs is not because of any god but because of gregarious and serious efforts by the people.
Meanwhile, those who brought those developments are neither Muslims nor Christians.
Chai..

MaxInDHouse:


Obviously you're not fit to answer the question because i ask a PERSONAL QUESTION but you keep on taking it to SOCIETAL LEVEL.

If you know anything your ancestral gods has done for you PERSONALLY that you feel foreign gods has failed to do for their worshipers let me know.

Meanwhile the title GOD connotes SUPREME BEING so there's no God that can make any country or nation improve that largely depends on the ATTITUDE of the people themselves the only thing a God can do is maintain peace among those adhering to the words of such a God as their supreme being but for a society where people worship numerous gods NO GOD can help them to improve!

Blazebond:
Many christians and Muslims are deluded,they are so stupid that they know nothing about themselves nor want to even know anything about themselves,as a Christian you are following Christ not the Jewish culture,you are following Christ alone, Christ did not say you should worship or follow other Jews or Israelis he said you should be like him and worship GOD so why are you now worshiping the Jews today and following their cultures,same as the Muslims whom have totally rejected their cultures and followed the Arabic ways of life,why are you all stupid,you have been brainwashed so bad that you have no single sense again, JESUS CHRIST died many years ago for our sins and made it possible for all race to have access to GOD so HE is no longer the GOD of the Jews alone HE is now the GOD of all person's who want to worship HIM, as for the Muslims na una know una own story because nothing concern me and una Muhammad because I nor know if una Muhammad totally brainwashed all his followers to ditch their culture and follow his but know this,as a Muslim,your founder was an Arabic man who came from the land of Saudi Arabia countries we all call Arab countries today ain't Arab countries,they where all people with different cultures and practices,it was the violent spread of Islam by Muhammad una prophet na em erase those people culture.as for the Christians of today when dey smart anyhow thinking say them go fit change my culture to Jewish culture ehn,una dey mad well well,I am a Christian but I am not a Jew,I have no business with Jewish culture.

STEWpid:

The foreign gods could not tell their worshippers the truth because it was handed over to you by deceit to conquer and brainwash you.
YES.
Growth and development is largely based on the attitude of the people.
Are you now saying that the christians and their god could not initiate good attitude that will bring better growth and development all this while??
Then what's the benefit to the Nigerian people?
THAT IS WHY YOUR POLITICIANS ARE SWORN IN WITH BIBLE OR QURAN WITHOUT ANY FEELING OF GUILT TO STEAL AND PLUNDER THE NATION INTO FURTHER MISERY BECAUSE THEY KNOW NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.
THE NATION WAS HANDED OVER TO THEM.
THEY ARE THE "ELITE SLAVES".
