Which Tribe/Ethnic group in your opinion, first started the concept of a divine force or Gods

Hello dear friend.
You mean to Africa?. It would be a very difficult question ...
I believe that since the existence of the first man, is this the belief of a "something" higher. A "something" when it was cool blessed rain, or "something" that scared when there was fire ...

Following Ptolomeus' reasoning, it would be Africans that started the concept of God since people say that civilization started in Africa

Yeah, right. I agree that life began in Africa.
I remember the story of creation recounting the Yoruba, which actually preceded Orisa at men on earth.

As for historical times, a historical version states that Oduduwa (the patriarch Yoruba) have migrated from the north and would have been established in Ile Ife. But the existence of a war of Oduduwa against a neighboring village would indicate that we had people in the surrounding areas.
It is a very complex question, in that play historical components

hmmm stupidious question.

In my personal opinion, the concept of God came around at the same time when all the tribes in the world were formed and reached their composite stage. it was already developing when we were at the ape-like stage, i am sure. .

sharing 99.9% DNA with an ape does not make a man to suddenly grow tails and jump up tress likes the ape you claim to originate from. Dinnousers etc are form of life that have gone into extinction due to climatic changes

you are talking like an illiterate an. Evolution is a gradual change, a slow process. This world is extremely old, so there was enough time for it to take place. not like your bible which claims that the Earth is only 6300 years old. Our Mother Earth is nearly 4.5 Billion Years Old!

it took time but we slowly evolved, just like other creatures. if we took your bible seriously, then dinosaurs wouldnt even have existed, since according to the bible, everything was put on this Earth as it is.

Evolution is Biology whether you like it or not. Everyone in this world had ape-like ancestors, including you. and why should i talk about muslims separately you are all made up of the same sh.it..

Are you agreeing that all gods/divine forces are man made? I tink it's impossible to answer your question though, because records don't exist about this information.

oh no not at all. the reason I created this thread is to prove a point that all Tribal/Traditional Pagan Religions are divine, since:

-they do not have any man founder

AND

-most have similar underlying concepts, even though their adherents have never met each other in the history of mankind, which is a miracle/strange phenomena in itself.


these are unlike the monotheistic abrahmist religions such as islam, christianity, monotheistic judaism who were founded by men (moses,jesus,muhammad) and who copied each others ideas (jesus and muhammad).

How on earth do you expect anybody to know that? not even scholars dedicated to answering such question have any answers to it.

The evolution and traditional religion are not contradictory. The white man is not the owner of evolution.
You mix things. You entered with a single intent (assault) and pori that reason you do not understand.
It's a shame so much meanness.

Let's see:
I hope I can explain.
According to the Yoruba worldview, to Ori (personal destiny) will be allocated a Bara (physical body) before coming to earth.
That Ori (personal destiny) is itself a divinity. However, for this target can be met, that Ori is accompanied or covered by a particular Orisa, Orunmila well.
If we understand this concept, Orisa (or strength or power to Orisa) is also within us ...
That is partly a response to your question dear friend?
I would like to know the opinion of a Yoruba regard.

not exactly, but YES i understand you. it is a basic Pagan concept explaining the connection between the material and Spiritual realms. yes very true. The Ori or what you say is the Spiritual driving force within us.
