When I talk about religion and its overwhelming insanity; people say I am being harsh! Now you see where you people have gotten to with this Bronze Age instituted Abrahamic God and His religion?Africans are just too much! If religion is not the fountainhead of gross stupidity, then what else could be?WATCH this video and tell me I am wrong about anything I have ever said about this concept of believing without evidence (faith)—and its associated credulity.It’s insane enough to believe that a son of a carpenter was sacrificed by his loving father for your sins despite to existing independent records of this—but to add a different layer of such nonsense, the hovering absurdities called miracles, being championed by the many African Men of God of which Bishop Daniel Obinim is the juggernaut of this enterprise is offensively pathetic.Beyond the Daniel Obimim’s growing popularity and televangelism propaganda which would politically match the position of North Korean’s divine ruler-Kim Joung-un lies this new idea of commercializing ‘Holy Water’—an ordinary water supposedly coated with divine powers which are undetectable and untraceable by any means of reasonable measure.Of course, for a long time, Ghanaian pastors, prophets and con men who are best friends of an invincible God in the skies and occupy a special place on his tall list of creation have been selling different sizes of anointing oil and watee—but for the first time, we’ve seen a TV advertisement of a well packaged ‘Holy Water’ capable of automatically depositing money in your bank account or paying off your debt.Perhaps President John Dramani Mahama needs to be shown this; because we can use it to pay for all Ghana’s debt or use it to conjure money to run our broken and yet religious country without always running to the IMF. It’s ridiculously insane, somewhat an indictment on our true position as sane human beings on the spectrum of existence. Religion grants the unfettered liberty for people to suspend their thinking faculty; the ‘reason’ why a man with a brain would believe that there’s an invincible God up there watching every micro second of his life—or believe that some holy water is capable of paying off his debt or deposit some money in his bank account.It’s pure nonsense but not any worse than believing one person was scarified to pay for the ‘debt of sins’ of every person who ever lived and would ever live by his own father.
