shervydman:

I tell u,bro.........I wanna be an atheist too,but people will just look at me as if I'm the DEVIL

Not just how people look at you.
How will you handle the local airlines that operate at night ?? especially if you live in a place like Edo state? ......e be like say u dey underrate your village people o.
Like Shervydman said, it is not practical in Africa.

DonnieTheGreat:
Also, the belief has to be strongly defined, grounded and definite. So the rain example might not necessarily hold. But yeah you are right religion is broad thats why it does not make sense at all.

Well that was just a straightforward simplistic example, we could expand it to say people who believe that it will rain every day of the year 3000 belong to a religion. They might need a lot of strongly defined belief systems possibly not rooted in science.

TayserMahiri:


Believing.... Not believing is another thing altogether. It is the precise opposite of anything to do with believing. However, if the atheists gathered in someplace like a church or something to worship their lack of belief, maybe they can become a cult and eventually a religion.

true, but
Atheist have a strong belief that there is no God. Atheism is not a religion but it's a definite belief that no supreme power exists. You are confirmed in this belief even though you don't know if that supreme power exist or not just like religious people.

Agnostics don't have a religion nor a belief. Atheists have a belief but not a religion. Religious people have both.

freshest4live:

Yes o, l've tried being an atheist several times but l keep repenting, it just seems boring in this African setting.

Especially when u know the kind of village you come from.
Nor take some kain village people play oo

How busy is Edo Airways?

Lionessza:





Hahahaha i better you are.



They do but not in high numbers , my uncle did a West African tour last year he enjoyed the variety of cultures there . I think we don't see much attraction because you guys don't market your beautiful side by that I mean places one can visit and enjoy .your department of tourism needs an upgrade

Yeah sadly,
Tourism in west Africa asides ghana is a serious mess. blame it on the oil.once the oil dries up am sure we'd step up our game.

Maduawuchukwu:


Lol. That's true. For u to be an atheist in Africa u have to have a strong grounding or reason for it. If it is merely to be contrarian the troubles of the underdeveloped world will humble you. My attempt at atheism stopped when I had problems in school.

You had to locate the nearest deliverance centre i guess?

TayserMahiri:

Hahaha. There are usually traffic jams at night oo.

Bro, atheism is a luxury only 1st world citizens can afford. If you live in Africa. You need Jesus to save your ass. (I used to be an atheist myself. But its not practical in Africa.honestly)

You need to be Western to think logically.

DonnieTheGreat:


Yeah sadly,

Does Ghana really have a fluorishing tourism industry? I dont think they do.
Gambia and Cape verde have the best tourism in West Africa.

DonnieTheGreat:

Bro, Wole Soyinka is an atheist. He has a Noble Prize award. But he his an outlier. Am not saying its impossible.

But considering the various difficulties an average African child has to face. You need some sort of support mechanism(Religion) to cope with the stress.

All Civilizations start with Religion. Because religion helps you cope with stress. There is a reason more than 2/3 of the world's population is religious. its not being a sissy, its just being a history buff. (If you need examples i would gladly oblige)

Christianity and Islam are non African per se. I think you should definitely decolonize your mind before we can have any meaningful debate on religion.

TayserMahiri:



hahahahahahaha thats a lot of traffic

Many Africans or should i say most are very diabolical and fetish. And i don't see this going away any time soon.
Atheism can only survive and compete with islam and christianity, but it can never survive in the midst of fetish and diabolical individuals.

TayserMahiri:


I'm not delusional, if I give you a list of Tz artists who have migrated to kenya to boost their career, you will be surprised. No kenyan artist would bother relocating to tanzania for the sake of their career.

But this doesn't change the fact that the Tanzanian entertainment industry and entertainers are more famous outisde East Africa? Does it?

Nowenuse:

Definitely not most. Say a good number.

Tanzania's entertainment industry is a kid in comparison to kenya. Media can really skew facts on the ground for those outside like you.

In 2015, Kenya's entertainment industry made more than KSh189bn. Nigeria made Ksh 418 bn while S.A made double that at Ksh 884 bn. Tanzania's was not even worth the study done by PwC.

wait, wat tourism does Ghana have

I don't know about PH. Ondo state alone has so many top notch specialist hospitals. The past governor really tried.

It looks like your planned cities are not planned at all..... how can a city lack free public amenities... The top notch hospitals you are saying are most probably private hospitals which are majorly out of reach for the common citizen. In Mombasa there are also specialist hospitals but the public ones are majority best.

MOMBASA VISAL OSHWAL PUBLIC PRIMARY SCHOOL
1. Free education offered to all students
2. Free laptops & tabs to all pupils
3. Free books & learning materials to all students
4. All co-carricular sports amenities provided free by National Government.

how can S.A make more than Nigeria . I swear I don't know wat S.A is singing ooo

Well maybe piracy affects the entertainment industry in Nigeria than in South Africa, that may just be one of the reasons why.

There is a difference between quantity and quality. You guys make a movie like every day, your artists also release songs literally every other day. S.A on the other hand make quality things that take time to produce and in the end earn them a lot of money. There is also a lot of piracy in your country and less of that in S.A

Lol, this quality and quantity thing is getting stale.Out of the quantity there are many qualities, if you think it's easy, try quantity let's see.

More of an agnostic

what ?? agnostic belief that there is a big power rulling the univers but not the gods of actual religions , atheist they belief only what they see, measure and exist

Whether Agnostic,atheist or religious i think we need rules to be followed....hev noted guys today have this tendency of not caring the fck much..like i can do what i want an don care attitude.Mother nature has a way of bring back the Kama shiity .hope its not tool late for humanity......(Am a programmer c,c++,c#,f# ,java php ruby vb.net an beautiful python an one thing i realize as a programmer you gat follow the syntax (rules )otherwise bugs will always pop up in your code..rules dude rules (an i think too much democracy is poisonous for Africa... just my thought )
