I totally agree with you on this one. I have always known that the religious doctorine that says we should seek spiritual solutions to all our problems is actually stiffling knowledge growth in africa.

I beg to differ with the author of this article on the pathogenesis of the religious intolerance in Africa. The fact that religious intolerance has a long historical and seemingly intractable nature, and has been ubiquitous ever since there was a place known as Africa, may need us to examine the problem from another perspective: bibilical.
I will premise my comment with this text: "He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil" (John 3:8).
Religious intolerance is a sin, and a crime against a segment of society.
Sin can be traced to the devil.
"Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity (sin) was found in thee" (Ezekiel 28:15).
Kicked out of heaven because of insubordination, "wanting be like God" (Isaiah 14:14), he decided to be an enemy of God and man (when created, Gen 3:15).
"And there was war in heaven: Michael (Christ) and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him" (Revelation 12:7-9).
In Eden God gave an injunction to Adam and Eve they "...may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it... lest ye die." (Genesis 3:2-3).
The peace and heavenly favor of the unfallen holy pair (like that of the second Adam when he came to our world) had aroused the hostility of Satan. He made it his determined purpose to make them sin, lose their Edenic home, and be like him. He succeded by causing Eve to doubt God's word, and believe in the contradiction of God's word.
"And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil" (Genesis 3:4-5).
The temptation was about a posture of a relationship to the revealed word given to Adam and Eve, the truth about creation and the conditional injunction versus a posture of relationship to the sophistry (a faulty reasoning) of satan, a fallen foe.
The temptation and fall of Adam and Eve teach us to develop a relationship with revealed bibilical WORD, and stand our ground during temptation, religious intolerance included.
Religious intolerance will always be here, and it will head towrds its climax as we approach the closing scenes of the earth's history. God wants his children to be faithful to his word. He has promised he will destroy Satan and his children.
"For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch" (Malachi 4:3).

I don't know how some people think. How do you believe religion is causing lack of development. My prayer is that the God which you discard will open the eyes of your understanding to know that greediness of Africans and lack of genuine love is dragging Africa backwards not religion. If we have God fearing people in Africa we would not face what we face. If few so called politicians have sympathy for their fellow brothers and sisters they will not in the case of Ghana steal 80million dollar worth of Gold for the whole country to themselves, give 50million dollars to one person without a written note. We should stop blaming Religion and think about our greedy and selfish life style. It is always I, me and myself. Wicked people. Look at the roads we drive on, electricity in our cities, our water supply. I am using GHANA as an example. God has blessed us with all resources possible to make us happy. Don't blame Christians and Muslims. Blame your corrupt administrators. 2Chronicles 7:14; Read the Bible that is a manual for human living.Think Right.

In spite of all the above, since everybody on earth will die and not live to see the end of the world as we have been coerced to believe we would see and partake, the act of who goes to heaven and whatever,is completely nonexistent.
There is no need to engulf oneself in a religion, cuz they're man made.
Religion of any kind, I mean, all of them are orchestrated by man. A god has nothing to do with what goes on in this sinful world.
Otherwise, this god, as the almighty,
the alpha and Omega, omnipotent and all the admiration man has been forced to honour, worship, a creator of the earth we've been told he/she is, would have prevented all the atrocities going on, in and around every facet of our world's existence, especially sick innocent children, starvation and diseases, disparity in race and wealth could have met his sympathy since we pray to him everyday of our lives makes it clear that, no such thing exist but simply, a figment of our imagination.
There have been a never ending problems of the world.
