Yes, I believe in Christ Jesus. I believe there's God because I've experience a lesson learnt from God himself. But without going to church or taking church serious, why I study my Bible at home and avoid wrong doing. Will that be okay? Remember it base on the topic Sir! There is no place where JESUS said you must go to Church to be Saved! The purpose of church is to have fellowship with fellow Luke minded brethren and to edifying one another! It's also to help those who are weak in faith! Not Everyone can stay without the Church. 1 Like |

the Europeans and Americans that stopped going ti school dont feel the necessity because they have people helping the country to develop but in Nigeria and Africa we need young people to go to school than worship centers because we are still underdeveloped, we need the young minds to depend on themselves than depending on God because is not coming to help the continent, we will help ourselves. Oga, going to school and church are not mutually exclusive. That is the point I am making. I am a firm believer in God and the church, yet it didn't stop me from completing my education. At the peak of British civilization, it was largely a Christian nation. Same can be said about many other Western European nations, even America. Yes, we will help ourselves but we don't need to stop going to church to do that. Most people spend less than 2-4 hours in church every week out of 168 hours they have in a week. How come church takes the blame? What do they do with the remaining 164-166 hours? |

Oga, my point to you is that no part of the world is perfect. People may have the good things of life in the West but doesn't necessarily mean they are happier than their African counterparts. There are rich people who suffer from depression and endless crises in their homes, while some poor people are living in peace and tranquility. Peaceful life is beyond the material things we can see.
What the governments of the US and European nations are doing don't summarise the lives of average citizens of those countries. Whether America is able to steal from Venezuela or not has little or nothing to do with the quality of lives of average Americans. There is no documented proof that Americans were happier 30 years ago than they are now.
"Instead of going to school, we are going to church..." What kind of rubbish talk is that? Did anybody tell you they couldn't go to school because they were going to church? Schools are open from Monday to Friday while churches are open on Sundays. Has anyone been denied of going to school because of church?
Today, there are many Europeans and Americans who no longer go to school (beyond secondary or high school). Many of them don't even go to universities anymore yet at the same time, they don't go to church. How come you're linking poor education with going to church? the Europeans and Americans that stopped going ti school dont feel the necessity because they have people helping the country to develop, but in Nigeria and Africa we need young people to go to school than worship centers because we are still underdeveloped, we need the young minds to depend on themselves than depending on God because is not coming to help the continent, we will help ourselves. |

With my personal Experience, Observation and inner conviction, I think I dont want to be part of any religion again. This thing is truely an opium of illusion meant for people who cant take their destiny in their hands and for a sheeple masses.
Despite withdrawing from religion I found myself even having a better moral compass which I cant explain. We are throwing away common sense, hardwork and universal principles to leave in illusion. At the end of my observation I have come to the conclusion that its what you do for yourself that counts more.
When I see poor people dying of hungry in a country which have the capacity to be the global industrial hub I know we have throw away common sense, Nigeria biggest investment to South Africa is Religious buildings (Church) while here in Nigeria the South Africans brought us MTN, DSTV, SHOP RITE e.t.c which employs thousands of people and gives profit to our Investors inventing in the stocks and shares of those companies I realise religion is lack of common sense.
No amount of religion can make you succesful without application of common sense.
No amount of religion can make your marriage succesful without application of common sense and consideration for your partner.
No amount of religion can a nation grow and prosper without application of common sense, productivity and good policies.
At the end of it I think am leaving religion, its not worth it. Even uprightness and moral comes from a person inner conviction and not because of religion.
