Scholar8200:Dr. Livingstone, Stanley or someone...I never got their names This is an excuse written by a European sympathizer, but it capture what happened The Saylor Foundation 1 Why Did Europe Colonize Africa? The 1880s mark the beginning of the colonial period in African history. Missionaries began to focus on the large working class with the goal of bringing spiritual salvation to the workers and their families. The bible was made available to workers. Due to their large successes, missionaries began to look beyond Europe. Missions were established all over Africa. Missionaries did not serve as direct agents of European imperialism, (lie) yet they drew European governments deeper into Africa. In their efforts to preach Christianity, to bring western-style education to Africa and to ingrain monogamy in African societies, missionaries often felt threatened by warfare within Africa. Hence, missionaries called on European governments for protection and intervention. (AFRICA WAS FIRST DIVIDED INTO "PROTECTORATES" THE EUROPEAN POWERS referring to areas they "protected". The same protectorates were handed to CROWN companies to commence exploitation of wealth, before being finally called "colonies".) In Malawi, for example, missionaries encouraged the British government, through a series of letters, to put down the slave trade. (Nevermind that the British government was a slave trader) The British government intervened in the 1880s. Yet the motivation for Great Britain to send troops and become involved in the region was not really the lingering slave trade in Malawi. Great Britain was concerned with the presence of the Portuguese in Mozambique. The letters of the missionaries merely served as a convenient excuse to enter the region and establish British interests. [center][/center] |

gatiano:Bro, freedom from slavery is highly desirable but not to be sought from the devil! Did Awo and Zik etc seek Nigeria's from the devil? The point is that they sought help from one that has no free gift! Eg we all know what happens to those who seek wealth from the devil! 3 Likes 1 Share |

muafrika:Kindly show exactly how Dr Livingstone fulfilled the charge in the op! Now, 1. Who sent Dr Livingstone to Africa? 2. What motivated him to leave the comforts of his place? 3. Were the protestant missionaries sponsored by the Govt or autonomous missionary boards or themselves? 4. What motivated Livingstone's efforts into the deep jungles? Answer these with references and not prejudice! William Carey came to know of places in India through the publications of an secular explorer and Carey saw the spiritual need/condition spurred him to seek to take the Gospel to such places! Now will it be just in a court to hold that the explorers went to pave way for the missionaries? NO. Vice versa. Besides, prove by exampes one or two protestant missionaries that had the power to call their home country govt for protection/ to send armies to protect them!!! (if this was possible, John and Betty Stam will not have been beheaded in China (or Japan). In fact from the story of Adoniram Judson in India, we see that the explorers and/or exploitative foreign govts made the work of protestant missionaries more difficult. 1 Like 1 Share |

So the Haitians sticking to their ancestral belief system of Vodou is devilish? So you even know what vodou is? or you based all your idea about vodou from movies and vampires movies. Haitian did not serve no evil or devils, when they sticked to what was theirs, they whooped everybody's behind, their problem again began when they began accepting jesus who couldn't save himself as the tales go as their personal saviour. They are now in terrible shape ever since. Who in the hell told you Awo and Zik go independent thru fake ass, hair touching shoulders, dead hair jesus. They had to show the dead black people walking that they were christians, They were not. christianity is bondage; Mathematically you can never use bondage to free yourself from bondage. Do you see how Awo's wife was laid to rest? does that look christian to you? Scholar8200: 1 Like 1 Share |

Yes you are right. One protestant now wants to build a stadium size arena for a church. protestants are much worse. The era of killing of indiginous people of the earth had already be completed by the anglicans, catholics and the likes. The protestant churches are there now to milk all indiginous economy dry out of their livelihood and resources. Preaching to the people that know no better love in a very hateful world, hope and salvation without seeing and loving self first. Christianity is the worst of all religion in the last 6000 years. It has caused more death in the history of the earth of ver several million years. Scholar8200: |

gatiano:This is not the focus of the thread! You can open a thread for that. can we have proofs? And who do you mean by 'everybody'? Thanks for coming out in full colour 'fair one'! Besides show me ANYTHING in my post that suggests remotely that they got independence by prayer!!! Indeed, the hard core of hate and prejudice against Jesus and anything having to do with Him were covered by a thin ice of a claim to fairness; at this point, it errupted to the surface!!! You are not alone though, the Pharisees shared your passion. Now 'fair' one, how does this have to do with my last post? Answer, your malice ran over unexpectedly! And how does this connect to my last post? Did I say Awo was a Christian or that he fought for independence through Christ? 1 Like 1 Share |

Lol @Christianity is bondage, and you can't fight bondage with bondage. Something is seriously wrong with the Muslims. Christianity is bondage? Gatiano, pls defined bondage, give examples and lie Christian laws and Islamic laws side by side. With this we can ascertain who is in bondage. All the atheists on this forum, were born in Christian homes ( I can't say they were Christians), they had the choice to accept or reject the religion they grew up to meet. Today, they are here reviling Yahweh. Most of them have declared openly to their folk that they don't believe in the existence of God. And they are free, working/walking about. Does this apply to Islam? Can a Muslim reject the existence of Allah and still be living in his community, among his family members, working/walking and talking, as in still alive? My dear Gatiano. Do you know how many Muslims will drop Islam and religion entirely if the death penalty over Apostasy is removed? Why do Islam force people to remained in Islam? Is it to count number of how many you are? or to use that as a tool to intimidate? There's Apostacy in Christianity. Pray tell how many hands, feet, heads have been cut off because people rejected Christ. And, don't even go mentioning Catholicism and their satanic acts, they weren't and still do not represent Christ on earth. 1 Like 1 Share |

The mohammedian religion too, has the canal mind of christianity. It just a lesser evil of both. How many did christianity kill? are you serious? 1492, there were about 700 million indiginous and red indians on the american continent. There was only 4 million left after 200 years. What about the Black people of the oceania, Papau new Guinea, australia, new zealand etc. All the African lives lost within the last 500 years All the Black people been displaced and murdered who were the real inhabitants of Northeast Africa (middle-east). What the deaths of the non-christian eurpeans at the hands of christians? Give or take, we are seeing over a billion lives taken within a short span. analice107: |

gatiano:Prove that figure with credible references! Look the white explorers were not christian missionaries! In fact Pennsylvania was named after William Penn, a Protestant Christian who was very courteous to the indigenous Americans http://digitalhistory.hsp.org/pafrm/doc/william-penn-kings-indians-pennsylvania-october-18-1681 Read the letter a Christian business man (not missionary) wrote to the Indigenous Indians in America (not Africa). Note how he dissociated himself from the cruelty of others from where he was coming from. Once again, note that this was not a missionary but a christian business man wanting to help resettle the brethren who were persecuted 1 Like 1 Share |

Yes he was courteous to the Red People of that western continent after they have killed them all left 4 million very light-skinned children who don't know much. Just like in Africa, They kill the the wise and the old, leaving the children to be trained in their dubious ways. You need the figures? do some of your own research too. Scholar8200: |

-The islands are a series of specks with the Andaman Sea on one side and the Bay of Bengal on the other. Only 38 of the 550-odd islands are inhabited. They are thought to have been populated by some of the first human migrations out of Africa. The Jarawa were totally isolated until about 1998, when some tribespeople began to emerge from the forest to visit towns and settlements created by several hundred thousand ethnic Indians, who now vastly outnumber the tribes, encroaching on their land. The Jawara have resisted civilization, famously shooting at helicopters with bows and arrows during the Boxing Day tsunami of 2004. Although nearly 6,000 people died in the tsunami, most of the aboriginals survived because oral traditions passed down from generations ago warned them to run for high ground from large waves that follow large earthquakes. The Indian government adopted a policy of isolation for the aboriginals, requiring permits to contact them. But what Ray called “friendly interaction” is resulting in “inculcation of undesirable knowledge and habits as well as injection of race impurity.” Therefore, Ray said, the isolation policy has failed and “if the current policy and treatment continues, it will not take much time for the total annihilation of the Jarawa entity.” The bolded is catchy! When you follow your traditions, You'd fare better. The hindu religion people of casting system isolated them thinking they would turn up into neanderthal, they were mistaken. http://assets.survivalinternational.org/pictures/732/ind-jar-tf-385_article_column.jpg 1 Like 2 Shares |
