    Crass stupidity. Our voodoos never help us in any way. Shouldn't we try something else?

  • Kpenyigba Kwesi 8 years ago

    You are right!! Voodoos have eyes but do not see; have ears but never hear, have mouths but never talk. All this is premitive stupidity. We should abolish them and only believe in God.

    At worse heaven and hell put checks on human behavior. Let just say it is all about superstitions without God. Here wisdom is being place on human behaviors towards each other for self cognitive check ups. You dig.

    Getting on your kneels and praying for your so called "GOD" invented by the white man doesn't make you intelligent either. Wake up from your sleep, there is something called POSITIVE TRADITIONS AND CULTURES, libation pouring ...

    All this voodoo the Europeans came with their large ships and took us captives to the new world and subjected us to rape, robbery humiliation and kinds of inhuman treatment.

  • kululu 8 years ago

    Christianity or Islam also could not undo what voodoo couldn't do. this is why you must know that you are on your own in this journey. Religion cannot help anyone but put a burden on your mind

    Religion is pure man made nonsense

  • Afrikikoman--Abiding in Salvation per 8 years ago

    So that you know the differences of spiritual issues and where they come from. Mine spiritis with Salvation of the Savior Mesiah, the only trye way to the Kibgdom of God as the bible says.

  • Afrikikoman--Abiding in Salvation per 8 years ago

    Love, maybe Faith as in believe or hope. Lest your are in hell. The choices are yours. You have a will. It is not just Africa, but all over the world. Times are approaching to the end times.

  • zamfara 8 years ago

    No west African 'religion' involves ancestor worship. This statement is a fallacy created by early European missionaries and often mouthed by ignorant Africans.
