GC & Religious Articles | We Are Not Going to STOP Writing on Religion

God

 

I have received several emails from some readers asking that, GhanaCelebrities.Com should not write on religion as they find some of the views offensive.

First of all, I think the essence of free speech is having the right to be offensive—and as such, being merely offended by an article because of your individual sentiment is not enough strong reason for us to discontinue writing such articles. What about those who enjoy reading and discussing these articles?

Secondly, GhanaCelebrities.Com publishes a total of about 70-100 articles each week and out of these many articles; we usually have a maximum of 3 religious articles. Therefore, those who find these religious articles outside their taste can easily skip them—and enjoy the other many articles. We file all the religious articles under RELIGIOU so you can easily spot them.

As the Editor of GhanaCelebrities.Com,I see no reason why a person with about 80 articles to choose from, would still opt for that single article he or she finds offensive. And proceed to suggest such an article should not be published without taking into consideration the others who may actually enjoy reading the article.

Again, religion (especially Christianity) has become the biggest topic of discussion in recent years, and where I live, countless high profile debates are organised regularly for various intellectuals and religious people to discuss religion. It is therefore reasonable that we offer a platform for such discussions too—so that those interested can enjoy the debate, learn new things and help in displacing some of the misconceptions.

Lastly, if any of you think the religious articles we publish are somewhat biased, nothing stops any of you from sending us your non-biased views on religion as a readers’ mail and we will gladly publish that. All the same, we have writers on both sides of the river, writing for and against religion. And we take steps to ensure there is a balance. We also welcome your views for publications if you really have a case…

Whatever it is; religion is one of the most interesting topics out there today—and we do not want to be left out of the ontological discourse.

For those who cannot have their faith questioned or scrutinized, I would plead that you do not read the religious articles—just concentrate on those other articles you find interesting.

We have not stopped writing on the various other topics. We just added some few more which has not affected our work in relation to the other topics.

I think an open minded person can hardly be offended by legitimate arguments and questions! We have diverse readers who should all be catered for…

  1. you mean GC will NOT stop writing about Christianity not religion cos u ve never written about budhasim or any of the rest.
    You can jab all you want about Christianity, you are not the person to change my fate. I chose to be a Christian on my own and that I’ll forever be.

  2. Satanists invented Atheism as a way they could attack Christianity without receiving the brunt of any retaliation. It is a false flag attack. True Atheists plain don’t care what other people believe. They feel it is a waste of time to discuss it. So the only Atheists attacking anyone are actually Satanists incognito. Satanists hate God and they rebel and seek to sabotage humanity as a way to attack God. For if God is with us, then who can prevail against us? Therefore, it is Satan’s #1 strategy to fool man into leaving God’s side. They don’t care whether you join Atheism or some other religion so long as you quit the one that brings you closer to God. They just want to steer you away from a personal relationship with God. You can sit there and write “we won’t stop writing about religion, ” why only Christianity, why not Muslims since you mentioned “Religion” and who is we, aren’t you the one writing it choose your words carefully cause you will surely be judge one day thinking you will make allot of money by writing all this bull…….. Just remember ” money is the root of all evil”

    Just saying Bye and for those who are supporting him, but will be in church on sunday praying for better days your days are numbered

    • If it’s not a me me me article, it’s i’m smarter or i’m open-minded article. Open-minded to only what suits him and what he thinks it’s the way of life. If you don’t see his point, you’re not open-minded. People are only good on paper but when you see them or they open their mouth, you’ll be plainly disappointed. I have many atheist friends but they never question my Christianity or anything because hey, we all do what suits us best.

    • Am sure Chris has been educated with ur comment although his arrogant self wont agree.Very well spoken, You have done your part to educate, its up to whoever reading to learn or not.
      I cant believe someone whose mom did her whole best to raise him in a christian family will grow up to be this bitter about that religion.
      When Chris grows,he will learn.

    • EH?! Atheism has no link to Satanism whatsoever, it’s simply a belief that there is no such thing as God, or indeed as Satan. Speaking here as an agnostic, I’d rather you didn’t shove your views on possibly fictitious deities down other people’s throats.

      • Satanism is a form of Atheism, and not vice versa. Atheists can believe in what you said, but not consider themselves Satanists. Some people don’t even worship themselves. Some believe it is just a basic disbelief in God, the term “satanism” is used by two very different religious philosophies. There are those who believe in a being called “satan”, who is the enemy of God, and they attempt through magic and spells to control this being and make him work for them. These would probably not be considered “atheist”, because they believe in a spiritual world and powerful beings that are like “god”. Satanism is also used by an atheist religion. In the Bible, satan’s fall is credited to his desire to make himself more powerful than God. This type of “Satanism” worships man and self rather than “god”. It believes that man is running the universe, and that there is no god. They use the name “Satanism” to show that they are placing themselves above “god”. So whether Satanism is related to atheism depends on which version of “Satanism” you are discussing mate.

        • Eh? Atheism is also ademonism. Atheists by definition do not believe in any form of devil. Likewise, active Satanists usually do believe in God and wish to subvert said God’s will and agenda. However, there are some groups which call themselves Satanist simply to draw attention to their rationalist atheist message while not actually believing in any kind of deity or devil.

  9. Keep writing! I will have you know that Religion is not synonymous with Christianity so if you claim you will not stop writing about Religion be sure to write on the other elements of religion. Like most of the other comments I dare you to write about Islam and Mohammed like the way you do about Christianity. So Mr Open minded keep writing…looking forward to that article Mr free speech!

  10. So Chris blocked me because he can’t stand the truth ! We all know the only religion you talk about is Christianity !!!

    You blocked me from commenting and you talk about free speech and fairness.

    Why don’t u talk about your religion too (Satanism).

    Christianity is the only Religion you write about because; John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

    Chris, the Bible identifies those who say there is no God as fools. They are fools because the evidence of God is everywhere. Let me shout it in your ears again ! YOU ARE A FOOL ! May the Almighty God forgive you. Fool !

    Psalms 14:1 The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that does good.

    Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

  11. Chris we all know your religious articles are deliberately obnoxious in order to get the comments rolling in. And if all article fails to stir the readers, Voila, religion savesthe day. See am even commenting on this one

  12. if you are not writing about your ‘high and mighty’ self then you are complaining about, oh I don’t know, everything! you say you have the right to offend people okay fine, that’s your thing I guess. for me I think you are a bully, you bully Christians, you blaspheme against God, you throw petty jabs at Ghanaian celebs perhaps because of your own insecurities you have. I don’t care if you get offended because until now I never knew I had the right to intentionally offend people because some law tells me so and not my morals. also I believe that atheists are also hypocrites. read below

    Why do atheists celebrate Christmas and Easter since both of these holidays are to honor the Christian “Jesus”? Why are most people (including the atheists) going into debt to buy “Christmas” presents? Why not totally ignore this holiday by going to work and carrying on, as usual? Don’t you think it’s a bit hypocritical to join in the festivities when you clearly abhor their very reason for being? The excuses that “everybody else is doing it” or “I have no other choice because my place of employment is closed on Christmas” aren’t valid….The fact is, if you in any way partake in the festivities, then you are a hypocrite because you’re catering to the Christian belief. Take action at your place of employment and INSIST on your right to work during Christian holidays, because you, by God, are atheist!
    maybe you still celebrate the old concept of Christmas because u believe in pagan gods? tssk tssk

    • If he’s not writing about his ‘high and mighty’ self – with his short height. Pardon his show-off ways. He didn’t know he’ll be where he is now…..it’s self-esteem issues. Don’t believe what people write or say about themselves – they try too hard to be noticed.

      • Chris wants to be a celebrity so bad !!! Have you watched any of his videos ? I mean this guy can’t even speak English fluently. His command of the English language is so poor. He dares to blaspheme about the Almighty God. Jesus has forgiven you cos He says You know not what you are doing !!!!

        I told him to keep to writing and not make videos of him speaking and he blocked me from commenting on here.

  13. I can understand that coming across such articles would seem offensive to many. After all this is an African entertainment website and what is the likelihood of coming across an born and bred Ghanaian that is atheist/agnostic or just brave enough to pose certain questions about a Christians belief and faith. At times I do find most of the articles on GC about religion hard to read and digest, although what I have come to realise it there are certain questions and discussions that as believers it’s important to hear and be confronted with. The easiest part of a believers faith is have that faith and having people around that agree or disagree politely. I don’t feel much can be learnt from this. As human’s when offended or pushed with uncomfortable questions it can either shift your faith or make it stronger. Stronger in the sense that there is a need to know more about your faith and be stronger in your knowledge and understanding of your relationship with God. I feel that though I have much to learn about my faith and religion I stand strong in what I believe and though being pushed to the wall with such intensely disagreeable articles is uncomfortable it has made me want to learn more least I stand up for myself and fellow believers. I can imagine that it is be such a delight for some non-believers or atheists to watch a believer shudder in fear or anger in response to seemingly outrageous questions when in fact some of the questions can be answered with ease, confidence and as I’m sure God would prefer, guidance. I have watched many a debate between religious scholars and atheists/agnostics and what I am always humbled by is the way pastors/priests/deacons are able to calmly, confidently and eloquently defend, debate and offer their position on their belief and their religion. This is not with the aim of changing, capturing or ‘recruiting’ a non believer but they themselves show that this person is living the life of a true believer. One with less judgment, anger or disdain for those who disagree. This REALLY isn’t our job as believers. If you are content and happy in your faith such articles cannot shake or move you, it should merely be a chance to allow people to see what being a believer, committed Christian means. It’s like the way a so called racist police officer knows he can anger a black man in his BMW 7 series when he stops him for the 8th time that week and he gets arrested for punching the officer. If a black man knows the law he will proceed with confidence or go about his business. I come to realise that this is how a confident believer should stride through such challenges of this nature. Being angry and offended is the easy part. I believe the annoyance and anger could be due to fear that there are some questions that need to be asked but I believe such questions are potentially a reason to come closer to God. This could genuinely be an article!! Ha! Remain Blessed.

  15. Is it that you’re ignorant about the word religion cuz to you religion = christianity ONLY..Im sure in your search on Christianity you found phrases that tell you how MERCIFUL GOD is.. And at the same time how JUST He can be. He is a LAMB and also a LION of the tribe of Judah. I keep warning you..you dont wanna see His other side..it will be better for you if you were not born..biko!

  16. Chris cannot write anything negative thing on what he thinks about Mohammed, if he does, this website and all his other website will be shutdown as soon as they see it. Muslims have the best hackers alive and they will mess you up if you talk ill of Mohammed. Christianity is such a calm religion, that is why this website is still alive. If he likes, he should dare write about Mohammed and see if this website won’t go offline for the rest of life. I like Chris, some of His views make sense but man attacking God and Christianity ain’t cool.
