Mr. Intelleshual.

British government in connivance with Anglican church used Roman Catholicism to control the Igbo tribe.

Once I read it in a book I am biased to believe (regardless of facts) it must be true.

A001:

Okay, you now agree GB sent missionaries to Africa because you stylishly avoided this fact earlier to show that GB, who sent missionaries to Africa, weren't interested in the religion of the colonized.

A001:

This is what's expected of a slave of Yahweh, the local god from Israel introduced to and enforced on your ancestors with a whip.

A001:

Dumbo. Show me where I stated the highlighted concerning catholicism in any of my posts. Brainless debtor.

The fool must be among the shallow thinkers that think the Britons funded costly missionaries to Nigeria because they love the Yorubas and for charity purpose.

Simpleton!

nihilistjnr:


I can only shake my head.

There is a Redeemed church in almost every country in the world. Is it the Nigerian Government that is opening Redeem parishes everywhere?

Mr man, apply some logic na?

If your position is that there were British Missionaries in Nigeria, I have never disputed that, and in fact I was the one that first discussed missionary spread in Nigeria.

If your position is that because the Missionaries were British, then they were sent by the same Government that was heavily restricting them in Nigeria, then bruv...

The British Government in Nigeria under the man who literally created the country and whose girlfriend gave us the name, was actively focused on preventing Missionaries from penetrating too deeply into Nigeria.

Lord Lugard even said with his own mouth that he believed Islam was better suited to Nigerians than Christianity because it allowed for polygamy and felt more like an indigenous religion for us.

So the logic of Christianity setting us back makes no sense at all. If anything, the colonial rulers clearly felt that Christianity was enlightening us too much

Today in Port Harcourt Obi just threw the entire Labor Party candidates under the bus. He only cares about his own position and the others in labor can go to Hell. Same problem he had in APGA

Android17:
You are arguing that governments institutionalize religion to control the denizens. Someone challenged you by demonstrating how within Nigeria, Roman Catholicism pervaded the Igbo nation and even made them more insubordinate to the British colonialists. You disagreed by using the blanket term "Christianity" to cover for the gap in your logic whilst forgetting that British missionaries who were almost entirely Anglican, could not have been responsible for spreading Roman Catholicism or any religion especially when it was counter productive to what the colonialists would have needed to subjugate their colonies.

So if the Igbos became predominantly catholic under British imperialists, it is nonsensical to blame the imperialists for their catholicism.

With Wike support for Obi today, the pattern is becoming clearer

Wike will achieve Tinubu goals via Obi as proxy. Wike being a self confessed Tinubu man cannot sell Tinubu candidacy to his people but can lock out PDP. Wike gets to support a popular candidate, increasing his popularity whilst simultaneously writing enough results for Tinubu to balance out the National aggregate. I expect all G5 governors will follow the same pattern

Obi now becomes the Buhari of SS and SE, battle ground now shifts to the North where Tinubu will hope to get the Governors to write him in enough votes such that SW will tip the scale

Atiku now needs to go Uber religious and Uber regional to get the power of Aboki numbers to overcome all these coalitions against him

raumdeuter:


I am sure some candidates in Rivers spent money to purchase form and are doing grassroot campaign for Obi, Yet Obi just came and threw all of them under the bus

I only care about myself, all the others following me can go and die. The old order of PDP and APC can continue everywhere as long as I get my own ambition

Same thing he did to APGA, he finished 2 terms instead of helping the party to expand he jumped immediately to PDP

Ramdeuter, which one be speech renovators again?

Leave my shirt abeg

A001:

Before you make a fool of yourself further, show me where I told you that GB established Christianity in Iboland.

Omo ode. While the Great Britain that brought the Anglican doctrine into some parts of Yorubaland, Portuguese missionaries introduced catholicism into Iboland.

Whether Protestant denominations or Catholicism, it's all Christianity, and the religion was a key aspect of the campaigns of colonialists in Africa as many historical facts have shown.

The religion that spread to the Igbos during the colonialist rule of GB was Roman Catholicism. If your argument is that governments usher in religion as a subjugatory tool, does it not follow that GB ushered in Roman Catholicism to control the igbos?

Of course, to make your vacuous argument even slightly tenable you have to throw a blanket over Anglicanism and Catholicism. The only major issue that pokes out is that pesky word called British which no sensible person will ever relate with Catholicism. But you are not a sensible person so. . .

OasisX:



Northerners..... why?!

A001:



I see you're among the so-called enlightened people that saw English dresses and English language (without looking at the content of what's said in the language) as signs of enlightenment.

If not, you wouldn't have echoed the childish sentiment of some people that equated anything European as signs of enlightenment and anything African as backward.

This mentality reeks of deep-seated inferiority complex and self-hate.

They're whites and look like angels and our lord Jesus Christ, and their religion, language, and ways must be pure. Na that childish mentality made some Africans sold out their people for just a mirror.

Lols.

A001:
The Age of Enlightenment, also called the Enlightenment, was an intellectual and philosophical movement that dominated many parts of Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries with global influences and effects.

However, Africa didn't largely take part in this great revolution in thinking, one reason why the region is backward in every human capital index. The continent is still in a dark age.

A001:

I'm not well versed in the history of my lineage.

nihilistjnr:


But you LITERALLY started this conversation by saying Africa was backwards because we did not participate in the European Age of Enlightenment.

Your positions lack intellectual merit, which is why you've ended up arguing against yourself in less than 10 posts
