The new
evangelical Christianity is a pernicious force in the West dumbing down
the populace in degrees every Sunday. The lack of spirituality here is
heart breaking; it is like watching malnourished people. It is a
mystery how people can subject themselves to such psychological abuse.
People are addicted to worshipping a narcissist, they will do nothing
else. I visit homes and there are absolutely no books in there other
than the bible and vacuous tracts and of course the torrents of
envelopes that come from thieving pastors exhorting the abused faithful
to tithe, tithe, tithe or go to hell.

The real tragedy
is that this dysfunction is being imported to Nigeria along with used
cars and toothpicks. The West can probably afford this shallowness but
we see the effect on a nation like Nigeria. Why are we mimic-people?
The new church of dollars and euro has been part and parcel of the rape
and plunder of Nigeria. Must we live like this? It comes down again to
a rank failure of leadership. Our intellectual and political leaders
have failed to manage the change that is necessary to move our nation
forward.

The new
Christianity has flourished like a plague under “democracy.” What
Christianity has done to black Africa is worse than the combination of
AIDS and the worst wars. What kind of God will allow adults to brand
children as witches and then maim and murder them? As we speak, there
is genocide going on in Akwa Ibom orchestrated by the new Christianity
against children. I say, let’s sweep them off our land. Our children
will smile again.

It breaks my heart
to think that Nigerian pastors are doing this to our people. I say, get
your heads and hearts out of those temples of doom. Build your own gods
in your own likeness. Mimicry is killing our race.

I am deeply wary
of organised religion, because, using Christianity as an example, it
has been an instrument of subjugation and state-sanctioned terrorism.
The so-called holy books are similar in one aspect – they are great
works of fiction crafted by insecure men to subjugate and keep under
control women, children and those that were born different from them
(gays and lesbians). The bible actively endorses slavery and bigotry
against homosexuals.

In the name of
their God and bible in hand, they bound our ancestors with chains and
threw them in the holds of massive ships to be slaves. Whenever I think
of what it would have meant to cross the seas under those conditions, I
want to find someone and exact my revenge. The expansion of Western
civilisation and the creation of mimic-fiefdoms (Nigeria, Haiti, Dubai,
etc) have been built on the backs of the conquered. Let’s be frank, the
yardstick today is the Eurocentric and we are the other. And what is
this nonsense parroted by Dinesh D’Souza and others that Christianity
brought Africa the great benefits of civilisation? At what price? Did
our civilisation not have poets, musicians, art pieces, etc, etc,
before the coming of the white man and his bible? Did they not loot,
bible in hand, our people and artifacts? And what has happened to our
people who are now told they must know Jesus before they enter a fairy
tale? Is my grandfather going to hell because he was unfortunate to die
before Jesus pamphlets came to our village? What has been the
unintended consequence of this conquest? We have lost everything and
all we do is mimic the conqueror. The loss of a people’s language is
the loss of self. Everything gets lost in the translation. They don’t
eat fish eggs, they eat caviar, and they say my people eat termites.
There is no word for termites in my dying language, and we don’t eat
termites, we eat irikhun.

The movement of civilisation has been at the expense of people of
colour. We have been hunted and haunted by the demons that inhabit
their narcissistic God. There is no excuse for what Christianity and
other alien religions have done to Black Africa, none. When Dinesh
D’Souza says that slavery and colonialism were the transmission belts
that brought civilisation to Africa and Asia, I shake my head. In
today’s Nigeria, the Christian God is a loud judgmental drama queen
keeping the “unfaithful” up at night with unctuous tuneless songs. The
weather is warming up here in America and thieving Nigerian pastors
with their jheri curls and fake American accents will soon be jetting
down here to buy designer crap with money stolen from the doubly
dispossessed. Why anyone would tithe ten percent of money they do not
have so that these pastors may live in sinful opulence is beyond me.
What manner of God will allow this pillage? They are all thieves and I
hope they all end up in heaven praising their drama queen. I wouldn’t
want them in hell with me and Fela.
