Africa: Where The People Give Out Their Resources For Mythological Hopes

The wisest man to come across in the Bible was the rich man who walked away from Jesus Christ when the latter told him to sell out all his riches to become a beneficiary of the kingdom of god. As the man walked away, Jesus retorted, “it is easier for camel to go through the eyes of needle than a rich man entering the kingdom of god”.

That is it. Those who live on the sins and ignorance of the people that they are sinless are always threatening with the barbarism of their deity in the name of love. You know hell washes the brain better if not cleaner. Yet the man remains psychologically fit. He realized that to give out all your riches to the poor is not charity. It is foolishness. It is stupidity. It is brainwashing. He saw through it all. He saw the trick, the superstition and ignorance inherent in the claim no matter how innocent the teacher looks. Innocence indicates neither wisdom nor divine knowledge. In most cases, innocence seemingly stems from ignorance and superstition than factual knowledge. It is perfectly imaginable that Jesus Christ was just an ignorant zealous superstitious man in the community of same-minded people deluding themselves in the name of kingdom of god.

Today we know that the rich man in the story made the right choice. Had he given out all his riches for the so-called kingdom of god, he would have regretted it even in his days. In fact, after more than 2000 plus years the kingdom of god, which was at hand as preached by many including John the Baptist, and then later Jesus himself, the very reason the rich man was to sell and give out all his wealth never came. It never came. It was and still is a myth. This rich man would have become a beggar waiting for the kingdom of god all his life. Then probably one of the beneficiaries of his own riches would later be helping him out until death.

Essentially, this is what is happening to Africa. Generally, the naturally rich continent was psychologically bamboozled with the mythical kingdom of god story and its supposed spiritual powers therein. We have become psychologically glued to harnessing the so-called spiritual powers therein in the name of the mythical seek you first the kingdom of god and all things shall be added onto you advice from Jesus again, who nearly misled the rich man with his superstitions, that it does not appear to many that we are being misled. We have been psychologically brainwashed to believing that nothing on earth compares to the glory the deity had hidden for the convinced (brainwashed). Yet every day we are praying for VISA to travel abroad to practically run away from the poverty and desolation in Africa. Our admixture of self-inflicted and imposed foolishness has made others the beneficiaries of our resources. They are now supposedly helping Africa out. The naturally rich continent is equally the poorest and most begging continent on the planet.

Let us have a quick review of the story itself. A supposedly omnipresent god, who talks bla bla bla from the clouds and from mountaintops giving commandments, capable of becoming human by impregnating someone’s virgin wife to be given birth to, and walk around preaching his own message. He had himself or son killed through crucifixion, buried and resurrected after three days and went back to heaven.

All of sudden became super-dumb, super-fatigued and incapable of impregnating any virgin on other continents so could not become a human being to walk around to deliver his own message everywhere again as he supposedly did somewhere. He would rather send some people to go to all places in the world and tell people about him that he was once around and would come again though he was omnipresent. He wrote it in a book called Bible. He found a religion called Christianity. They should belief them. If you believed them, you become a son of god. Else, the father of the son of god tortures you eternally in an unquenchable fire for not believing that story of the son of god. Not only is the story mythical, it is even ridiculous, very and very ridiculous.

Yet Africans swallowed it as true. The chain is fixed. For a whole continent to be bamboozled by this mythical and ridiculous story in the past, and continued to the present only speaks volume of the people. Superstition fits into superstition. We have acquired or are still acquiring all the spiritual powers therein yet cholera and malaria are enough to wipe out as many as possible. Our continent has become the Silicon Valley of Churches with their Prophet CEOs. Just that more than 500 plus years had passed ever since the story came to us. The kingdom of god, which was at hand, never came. It is always at hand. Meanwhile, unlike that rich man who saw through it all and walked away, for us Africans all our resources are now literally in their hands though in our soils.

Our politicians now have to be going for loans. Loans and grants certainly culled from our own resources as we become psychologically glued to mining a supposedly spiritual powers therein. Foolishly, some say those helping us out are practicing Christian value. If you mislead and brainwash the people psychologically, why will not be helping them out with little, as you become owners of their resources.

Up to now, it is not clear to us that this story was but a bamboozling story successfully executed on the continent. Just as they did politically, they trained others to take over. As the politicians are actually forced from all angles to continue coming for loans from them, others were trained to keep ensuring and insuring the superstition. Your now home-trained Priests, Rev. Fathers, Fathers, Pastors, Archbishops, Bishops, Prophets, Evangelists are just doing locally what was done to the continent globally; shifting the mind of the masses off the real problem to a mythical kingdom of god and its supposed spiritual powers therein.

Our problems as a continent and people are real like everyone else. They are how to overcome diseases, hunger and fight off political and economical suppression, repression and oppression. Unfortunately, the unthinking corrupt attitude our politicians compounded the issue. So much so that the masses still believe the psychological chaining story is their only remedy. Meanwhile, it has never been a remedy anywhere on the planet. Had it been a remedy, they will not come for our resources. Let us face reality and start holding those unthinking corrupt politicians accountable. That is the only remedy.

We must realize and be convinced that the lot of man depends on man and not any spirit. It is only with this conviction that the masses would understand the real essence of holding leadership accountable to start with. Religion led by Christianity in Africa is a threat to freeing the African mentally. Do not be deceived that Christianity is a friend of the poor. It is not at all.

Christianity is a friend of poverty, poverty and abject poverty. It is its friendliness to poverty, not the poor that it was generally rejected in thought and action on other continents. Any belief system that convinces the masses that their lot and hope depends on God (or Satan) and not man is essentially ensuring and insuring poverty implicitly. As for the African politicians, they love it that their people believed and are convinced that god and not man would provide their wants and needs.
