Low Turnout Of Teens In Churches Nowadays. by RedCentaur(m): 9:15am On Jan 30, 2022 |
I just came back from service. I'm a Catholic, back then in my teen years, I do see alot of turnout of young people BTW 10-20 yrs of age. But these days, it seems they ve left this church of a thing to the older folks. What could be wrong? 24 Likes 4 Shares |

Are you kidding me? And yet the church buildings were getting fuller by the hour, so who's making up the numbers? The elderly ones? Maybe you're speaking of the Western world but certainly not Nigeria, except the issue is with your church because it's an aberration, not the generality of the reality on ground, because Nigerians churches are filled with youths. Fact! Except you're speaking of many them not being truly saved but church attendance? That doesn't fly for me. God bless. 55 Likes 1 Share |

RedCentaur: maybe they find the catholic church BORING and they have moved on to more groovy and swaggalicious church where the pastor has benzes and porsche and plenty fancy suits to inspire the youth to MAKE IT. They will also be able to meet girls in juicy sexy curvy outfits there and make connections with their fellow teenage guys who sag their jeans, wear earring and paint their finger nails. dem no get time to hail mary again. dem want that sexy usher called mary to hail dem when they meet in church. they got tired of reverend spraying holy water when people like odumeje is spraying dollars. 297 Likes 25 Shares |

Teens are pro-Pentecostals now, or not doing church and staying online on Sunday morning. Teens are fleecing from Catholic and is mostly because of their unchanging, crude, unmodern and old orthodox doctrines. Teens now are born as recent as 2005, hard for them to warp their head around 1,000 AD Doctrines. 53 Likes 3 Shares |

The children are getting wiser and smarter than you adults who fail to think for yourself that religion is nothing but a bondage meant to cage gullible ones.. Modified: about 4 months later this graced frontpage.. .. Our famous Nietzsche is challenging humanity to assume the throne that they have already made vacant and he is reminding everyone of the responsibility involved in doing so...He is calling you all to become greater than your theistic imaginings..to become real rather than being slaves to an invented creature created to shield humanity from the crushing realisation of the power and potential they actually have... God is dead...God remains dead...And we have killed him..must we ourselves not become gods simply to appear worthy of it? 30 Likes

superCleanworks: True. Mostly found in Pentecostal churches of winners and salvation ministries. Teens are fleecing from Orthodox Church like Catholic, Anglican and Methodist. Now a church for the oldies. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

Ebubu: That is because the Pentecostal are offering them what they want. Nowadays, teenagers don't wanna sit and just listen to sermon without something else to make the service more interesting. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Perhaps they're not fully convinced about the religion their parents handed over to them. I attended the meetings of Jehovah's Witnesses last week and the youths are fully prepared to go out to preach and teach as usual. Do expect them at your doorstep soon! 9 Likes

They don't want to remain in a place where they'll be told the Truth. They want to be in a denomination where they'll be given a lot of motivational quotes.... A place where they'll dance till they get tired.. A place where they won't be told about Eternity.... It's really bad. That's why I'm insisting that no church should change it's doctrine for any Man... If they want to go.... They should simply go Cc mynd44 Lalasticlala 21 Likes |

Not only teens. also we adults. Churches in Nigeria is more like a scam now. I now see pastors as businessmen whose source of income is their members. The way these pastors mention seed, seed, seed everytime will make you think they studied agricultural science in school. I am a businessman too so I see them as fellow hustlers. 34 Likes 3 Shares |

Nigeria, an over religious nation yet a nation where unimaginable evil happens from the North that barbecue people in the name of Moe Ham Made to the brown roof Republic that commit incest, rituals and all sorts of Internet fraud to the South that are working asidously providing oil to keep the nation afloat to the Easterners that are angrily developing every part of the nation within and outside the country. How will u see anyone in church? If not for the angry evening newspapers that make up multitude of church attendance. 7 Likes |

The younger generation is less gullible than the older one, that's why. Only the gullible ones fall for religion which is a man made scam. Young people now have the audacity to ask questions that our parents were too scared to ask. I mean, white and arab folks can't just write some literature and hand it over to us without nobody questioning it's authenticity. To me, the awakening is a good development. And I'm now beginning to believe that our traditional beliefs may not be as bad as they painted them to be, the problem is that we were not given the chance to evolve and refine those beliefs to suit modern ideologies. I can't find a place in my heart to forgive Africa's invaders sha. They messed us up too much. 14 Likes |

Most of these churches are fashion centers and avenue to show off. It's better to pray at home than to go to church and feel oppressed. The way pastors will now start announcing the major stakeholders In the church sef nawa. 16 Likes 3 Shares |
