When I visited Zimbabwe last year I was shocked at the number of churches which have sprung up everywhere. Even the traditional churches have become more radical and extreme.   Taking a bus from Harare to Bulawayo... there was a prayer before the journey begun and have also heard most business meetings now start with a prayer in some reputable companies.  Gospel musicians are increasing and are making big buck. Mapostori which have always been shunned for their strange beleifs are attracting record numbers.

Why is this the case? You simple need to look at the devastating economic indicators. People have turned to religion christianity in particuler. But the radical practise of christianity by some Zimbabweans is a cause for concern.
Many are spending so much time attending church meetings instead of doing productive things.  if you were to spend a bit of time doing a self evaluation of yourself, you will not a need religious leader to tell you what is wrong with you and why you are not succeeding in life. As Karl Marx said religion is the opium of the masses.  Why are Zimbabweans clinging so much to a religion which was used to colonize them and enslave them. The whites themselves know it, that is why you can count the number who go to church.


Our origins are not known and people are still trying to look for answers. The Genesis fairy tale is just what it is a folk tale, with no evidence........If your God was there why is it that you are scumbags of the world with unimagibale suffering, whilst the heathens prosper in the world your God made..... s

I think it must be you, Zenzo2 pictured being beaten for promiscuity, am I right?
Though it may not be you being beaten, your post really tells us what type of person you are. A devil worshipper that thinks wealth and money can save. A dirty minded person that enjoys nudity. A lover of gossip and violence. A first born among the daughters of the devil.

Repent and believe the gospel of Jesus Christ and be saved.

Islam, Christianity are not African religions. Our ancestors have lived for many years in harmony with the enviroment and prospered. The problem with christianity is that the religion is not african and there are lots of holes in the theories proposed in the so called holy bible.

1. Adam and Eve were the first humans and got told them to multiply. So along the line people commited incest.. will you sleep with your sister or cousin today? why not that is what your bible say...

2. You sing hymns in church about white as snow, but has an average african seen snow?

3. there are too many denominations each saying they are right..... but at the bottom is competition for money...

4. why do you need to pray to something you can´t see when you have two hands to work and change yourself.....

What a Shame!!!!!!!!!

Pendu you can not condemn a person for not believing what he has not seen. That is human nature,exactly how God designed us. It is through such interrogation of ''facts'' that humanity has progressed to what it is today.
Jesus says none will believe except those those the Father draws to him.
Most of us believe because we have witnessed more than just the word. Lets pray for the Zenzos.
What he is saying is what every westerner says and believes in. Only God can convince the world of hHis existance.

I did not condemn any person here. What I said was a direct response to what she wrote. What she wrote tells us about what and who she is. What I did was to just clearly expose her. Ask her, if she is honest she will tell you that what I wrote about her is correct. But she being of her father the devil, she will just like her father lie. There is no truth in her.

We are christians, because we have free will brother, that was given to all man by Jehovah, God the creator. We can choose what we do, although all decisions have a price at the end of the day.

If you are all christians and so and so..... who is then commiting all the corruption, rape, murders, infidelity.. all kinds of things we read from our newspapers daily..... What in fact do they teach you in your churches and does the church help pay your bills?

I have no brains imagine.
Back to the topic the Westerner was a mere vessel of globilising the Word.
He obviously saw the way it can pacify the masses and oppressed that. But the
Word is still the Word and the westerner  will be judged accordingly.
My issue was with Pendu who seems to condemn the author for this thread
yes this is how many people view religion the world over. Its our duty as Christians
to make bring them to the Word and God will do the rest.

God is a spirit and cannot be encountered in the temporal. God cannot be conjured up as He does not reveal Himself through your natural senses i.e. feel, touch, smell, hear, see. You have a spirit man even though you don't even realise it and its pretty obvious that what motivates your cynicism is ''another'' kind of spirit which is not of God. In His might and power, He has been graceful enough to make us free moral agents even though He created us in His wondrous image. That means we are able to either accept Him or reject Him. Just understand this, whether you choose to accept or reject Him, you'll face judgement like everyone else including satan who seems to be the controlling spirit behind your hostility towards God Almighty. You need His grace friend.

Thats a gross error of understanding. You have a mocking spirit. You belittle what you lack knowledge of, just like Goliath.

What development are you talking about? On whose planet?

Go set up your own system elsewhere this one is already spoken for by God whether you like it or not.

It must be you and your trappings of development.

A time will come when you will need God, if it has not already come. Make sure you seek God now whilst you are still able before the deceiver who is feeding you those lies destroys you.

Matthew 13: 13 - 15
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.
