What’s The Best Traditional Deity To Follow? I’m Tired Of Jesus by Kushites: 3:37pm On Jul 28
Any ideas please?

I’m sick of going to church and seeing that white man face staring at me.

I don’t believe that God is white and that He has a white son that I’m supposed to worship.

I REFUSE to be brainwashed by the British.

Can any of you guys recommend a good traditional deity to follow, please?

Or if not, a good traditional priest who can direct me accordingly.

Much appreciated. undecided

Where are you from...
First gị to the village
Speak with the elders who practise the local spirituality of your place
Then make up your mind.

Follow whichever deity your ancestors followed. Christianity and Islam are pure scams

What if you are god? Follow yourself. Same way god came about might be the same way you also came about.

Thanks for this.

But I’m far from the village right now.

I need immediate solution.

I believe my ancestors’ deity was Amadioha.

But I have no idea how to observe the religion!

I’m stuck!

Basically, you now want "you guys" or a "traditional priest" to brainwash you instead?

Pity you haven't decided to wash your own brain yourself. If you did, you'd not "follow" and might end up directing yourself at least.

My suggestion is, read the books (Bible and Quran to start with), yourself instead of going to church to stare at a white face.

Unlike you insolent twerp, I’ve actually done research into the credibility of the bible and Koran, and they are very dodgy indeed, and inundated with fabrications, lies and deceit.

So you can stuff that fake bomboclat up your colonial mentality behind.

I wonder what you mean by "credibility of the Bible and Koran".

Are you aware that Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart is a fabrication, which could be classed as lies and deceit that you can learn from?

That's why I said read them yourself instead of believing what you've been told. You might learn the wisdom of using your own senses like Eve did instead of the ignorance of Adam which kept him in naked ignorant slavery, and you might see through the lie of humans being created from mud instead of in the image of their gods too, which would make you master of yourself instead of a slave seeking a master.

It should at least make you less swift to insult.

You have done research on Bible but you have not done on your amadioha.

You are the one brainwashing yourself.

False Gods cannot give you solace other than to deceive you and then destroy your soul in hell fire.

As a Christian, which you said you are/were, you must come to God in faith and be patient

Your family must have a god or deity they follow before the accepting Islam or Christianity. You need to go back home and inquire. A clue may also be in your surname or even middle name. One of my middle names has Ifa***** as an example so I know, even though my family has been Christians since the 1920s or thereabouts.

Young man, you've never been a Christian just as you're not a Muslim. You're the same Rossiki (with up to 100 variations grin), Tellmeastory, jazzman771, Napata77, Reflect7,etc, who always praises Africa's traditional religions, believes Nigeria will become a world power through explosive population growth that's currently the bane of our poverty, and many other weird beliefs. I "catched" you, abi??

Chinua Achebe was certainly a legendary writer, but I don’t recall him making a claim in Things Fall Apart that he was speaking on behalf of the Almighty, or promising eternal torture in a furnace for those who failed to read his book.

That's why I said read them yourself instead of believing what you've been told.

What makes you think I haven’t read the bible?

I probably knew every verse before you were born.

You might learn the wisdom of using your own senses like Eve did instead of the ignorance of Adam which kept him in naked ignorant slavery

And you believe the story of ‘Adam and Eve’ because……?

Do you have a single shred of evidence of their existence?

You can’t even prove the existence of ‘Jesus’, never mind ‘Adam and Eve’.

Are you aware that by scientific consensus the first modern humans arose in East Africa over 200,000 years ago?

In fact a paint factory was discovered in South Africa recently, complete with evidence of chemical admixture and deep knowledge of chemistry, and was carbon-dated to 100,000 years old.

Google “paint factory discovered in South Africa” to confirm the reports.

HOW DOES THAT SQUARE WITH YOUR ROMAN STORY OF “Adam and Eve”, dated to 6,000 years ago?

Maybe Adam and Eve were the first Europeans, not the first humans.

We know the white race only emerged about 6 or 7,000 years ago. So maybe your ‘Adam’ was the first oyinbo or the first albino.

NOT the first man.

and you might see through the lie of humans being created from mud instead of in the image of their gods too, which would make you master of yourself instead of a slave seeking a master.

I seek no master.

I seek knowledge and truth.

Don’t be ridiculous.

We were all raised to be christians, so of course I know more about christianity than Amadioha.

But I’m looking to extend my knowledge beyond the British religious imposition.

Amadioha is just one deity. Your ancestors worshipped Chukwu Okike. You make supplications to other deities for specific purposes.

If you need Justice, you call on Amadioha
If you need bountiful harvest, you call on Njoku or Ala
If you need healing, you call on Ogwugwu etc

You know nothing. If you did any research, you should have known that England were worshipping other gods before Christianity came to them.

Point: Focus on your amadioha, if you are serious. No need mentioning Bible in your quest.

Thank you my brother. 🙏

What is the most effective way to call on these powers?

Is it by prayer?

Incantations?

Should I sacrifice a hen?

My brother, I asked my family before, and they were looking at me as if I was not okay.

They are too far gone in the church stuff.

I never mentioned the word worship.

African religion is not about worship. It’s a different type of relationship that we have with God and the deities, it’s not worship.

At the heart of every religion the worship of a god or deity. You cannot separate religion from worship. Like you, I gave up on the white man's religion more than 2 years ago.

Never stepped in a church the past 2 years as I realized they are all an elaborate scheme to hypnotize and control members.
