Nairaland Christians And Hypocrisy by BeansAndBread(m): 12:36pm On Sep 27, 2018 |
Good day everyone, This thread is not to malign Christians but to state the what's going on in the real world as well as Nairaland. I've been a guest on Nairaland since 2011, but decided to join the forum in 2014 due to things I saw in the Religious Section against Islam. We thank Seun and other MODs for creating a separate section for Muslims as this has helped and protected us a little from cusses from non-Muslims especially Christians. I'll talk about the real world, I'm a Yorubaman from Kwara State. And we've been victims of oppression and deception by missionaries. Now note that I'm not directing this to Yoruba Christians but the missionaries some who were British and few Yorubas. Islam in Yorubaland dates back to as far back as 15th century according to some scholars. Yorubas started to embrace the religion since the 16th/17th century thereby making them one of the oldest Muslims in Africa. In fact Islam is older than some worship of traditional gods in Yorubaland, and I can state for a fact that Yoruba Muslims are the majority. I know I know, some Yoruba Christians would dispute this fact. Lemme break it down for y'all, the only states with majority Yoruba Christians are Kogi, Ondo and Ekiti states. Muslims make up the majority in Kwara, Oyo, Osun, Lagos and make up 50% of Ogun State if not more. The vast majority of Yorubas in Benin Republic and Sierra Leone are Muslims, so let's not deceive ourselves here. When the missionaries began spreading Christianity after we were conquered by the British, they used all sort of vices including deception and force. I'll give an instance with the north, the main reason why the north lacked and had bad feelings about western education in the early days was due to some antics of the missionaries. One popular example was when the Colonial government sent the missionaries to Zaria in order to teach the people "latinlized" version of Hausa rather than the "Ajami" version, when the missionaries got there, they changed their position and then decided to pick the 3 brightest young men from the city. Their aim was that, if they were successful in converting them to Christianity, they in return would bring the rest of the city into Christianity. The people discovered this and sent them out, this isn't the only way they tried, however, I'll leave that for now. Unlike Northern Nigeria, the missionaries were extremely successful in their quest in South West. They quickly removed the Ajami scripts the Yoruba Muslims used in writing and proselytized a lot in Muslim areas. As I said earlier, I'm from Kwara State and I know first hand what the missionaries did here. During the days of my dad, a distance relative of my dad who was already a Christian and worked with the missionaries and had connections in one missionary school in Igbaja, Ifelodun. The school's name is ECWA secondary school. The man convinced my dad to apply to the school but my dad applied to it alongside Offa Grammar school which was government school. My dad got accepted into both schools but his uncle who was a missionary and a preacher refused to show my dad the admission offer from Offa but only showed him that of ECWA. So my dad had no choice but to attend the missionary school and didn't discover that he was offered admission until many years To be continued.... 2 Likes 2 Shares |

This thread is going to be light. I'm aware of everything op said. And we got someone (usermane) who said they (Christian terrorists) moved on. But in reality they didn't. Their terrorists masters killed the heck out of ijebu people and paved way for Christian missionaries. After they achieved their aim {by bombing the day light of ijebu people), and of course, Yoruba generally, and handed their Bibles to us (you remember those small sized New Testament bible) in high school?. Then, they said their old God had renounced violence. That's why they forged New Testament to portray their "peace" initiative. Fact is, they aren't peaceful one bit. They are just smarter than black skinned Africans. 3 Likes |

Following... BeansandBread, let me share something with you. When you open a thread like this, be prepared for counter inputs and pressure to derail the intent. You must ignore both those for and those against your point until you complete what you brought in to sdhare. After you complete, then you pick the baddest of your opponents and thrash him/her with your facts and truths. If you keep replying to moles you will never finish the information you want to share.
