The Nigerian Church Pandemic & How To Solve It by NaijaSatanlst: 5:07pm On Oct 19, 2021 |
Christian or not, let's face it. Nigeria has a church problem. It seems everyone is "called by God" to lead the flock. In every street, there is always a church. These churches come in all sizes from the absolute behemoths to the average shop. Since Nigerians are really into superstition, it is not hard to see why churches are big business in the country. The economy is not doing well, and the poor people believe that the person who can save them from poverty is a god that is foreign to the African continent. When you have a grip on the church, you have a grip on the people. You can take a look at the US evangelicals to get a full picture of what I am talking about. In order to solve Nigeria's church pandemic, the government needs to step up and fix issues in the country. There is a reason why Nigerians become less religious the moment they leave the country and land in a better environment. Churches should be made to pay taxes and any church that tries to evade taxes, should have the culprits (like the pastor) jailed. Regarding the fake pastors, the government should arrest anyone who makes claims of performing "miracles" like angels sending money to bank accounts or the lame walking. Because it has been proven time and again that it is just fraudulent and drama for the camera. The earlier we start doing this, the earlier we start advancing as a country. |

NaijaSatanlst:You want government to arrest anyone who claims to perform miracles on what legal grounds? The earlier we start.... has government arrested all the politicians who have also made claims of performing miracles - including campaign promises that were lies from the start or are you simply out targeting those you hate in this? |

Kobojunkiee: On the grounds of fraud. There is a reason why miracles only happen in churches....on TV... you know |

NaijaSatanlst:Who is the one complaining of fraud? You or those who claim to have indeed received miracles?. |

NaijaSatanlst: THE ONLY MEANINGFUL THING I WANT TO ADD IS THAT YOU'RE NOT MAKING SENSE. For your information my data subscription for an attack is still valid..... |

Kobojunkiee: Those who watch the pastors and their allies perform "miracles" on people and think that what they are watching is 100% real and not a staged something. |

NaijaSatanlst:I don't understand. You weren't actually defrauded in anyway but you wish to have them charged for fraud? E be like say way too many of you no get better thing do for una own life be this. Not that long ago, I too lacked belief in any God and I never spent even a second of that time doing any of what you do here as my days were always booked with things to do, places to go, books to read etc.. |

Kobojunkiee: Making claims of a miracle is fraudulent. I hope you understand |
Re: The Nigerian Church Pandemic & How To Solve It by Kobojunkiee: 6:38pm On Oct 21, 2021 |
NaijaSatanlst:You claim no miracle took place but there are 1000s who claim it did. So how do you prove this fraud? . |
