He speaks absent thought or basic human responsibility, contradicting himself and sometimes re-contradicts his contradictions. Neither his poetry, Atheism, agnosticism, opinion, fables, lies, understanding, or knowledge can fix society. He is, in fact, a sickness of human society, who rather contributes to the problem than providing solution. What that hell!

I'm going to say something alot of you in this comment section will not like but we need to have this discussion. In Bob Marley song tittled REDEMPTION SONG he sings "emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds" Alot of religious Africans have lost their damn minds and refuse to face the reality in front of them. Whether it is JESUS, ALLAH or Jehovah you worship if that religion doesn't empower you throw it away, its useless. Before I proceed I want to clearly state that my frustration isn't with the religions Africans practice but rather how we practice it. Nat Turner read the bible. He was a Christian but also a slave and when the time came to fight for his freedom he didn't hesitate. The Haitians in one voice called on their African Gods like the Almighty Ogun..the Yoruba God of War and he answered they call as they battled the French for their freedom in the island of Haiti. Today we have a lot of Cowards..bloody spineless cowards who choose to hide their cowardice behind religious piety. That's the problem we have. Wake Soyinka is speaking the truth and we have to ask ourselves..How can we worship the same god our oppressor and colonizers worshipped?. Aren't we all God's children? Aren't we all equal in God's eyes?. Where was our "mighty father who art in heaven" when his demonic spawn from Europe descended on us. Where was he during slavery?. Where was he during the genocide in Rwanda?. Where was he when France was assassinating our African leaders who really wanted the best for us?. Where was he during Apartheid as The True South Africans were being oppressed in their native land by Dutch scum they had once welcomed and shown hospitality? Where was this "loving god" during Jim Crow, Lynchings, the destruction of successful Black American neighborhoods? Where is our father now as Africans are being brutalized in Libya or beheaded in Saudi Arabia? Hmm? What about the DRC being ravaged by the Ebola virus, where was Christ? Where was Christ when minions of the UN went into Kenya and sterilized 500,000 black girls? Where was he? Before you come preaching to me about the "love of Jesus". You must first show me where and when he has ever shown us love. How and why should we crave love that has never and will never be given to us. Right now the genocide of Black Americans at the hands of police in the U.S. is only getting worse where is this "powerful god" you keep telling me to worship? Religion has robbed you of your ability to think. Don't ask me to submit myself to something so dangerous...a religion that doesn't empower you is dangerous and useless.. Let it go!!!!!!!

It is not religion that causes intolerance. It is intolerance that uses religion", The leaders of such movements are using moral and religious language as a cloak for evil and irreligious ends",religions are not the causes of evil, but they do naturally share in the general moral state of the societies in which they exist".Any organized human activity can be corrupted, the corruptions of religion, although highly regrettable, are less harmful than the corruptions of secular ideologies of Atheism Nazism, Leninism and Maoism all claimed the support of science. In addition most religions have within themselves a powerful critique of evil that all by human are capable of.

True and real Christianity is not the bag of an out show. God and His Christ Jesus do/does not work in partnership with the Devil. yes ' though today many religious Christian leaders are mix representing Jesus Christ and their followers are be mix inform about God's purpose ... .

Wole Soyinka blames religion for the "troubles it causes", but he should really be talking of the trouble the churches cause because of their differences with each other and the bigotry, homosexuality, pedaphilia and greed of the church. Religion is direct between the person and God and there IS no trouble because the church plays no part.

Wise and hilarious at the same time

Brilliant!

For most of my life, I was completely disillusioned about region until early 2016 I had a powerful vision and God revealed to me the essence of Human creation, the reason for it, as well as the expectations. Religion is primarily a tradition and spirituality is a personal relationship with your God. I spoke about my Visions in three videos I put on KZread titled God spoke To Me 1,2 and 3. It is very sad that a lot of people shy from the truth and gravitate towards noise and flamboyant characters. God have mercy on us all and the people of FAITH should continue to pray for Humanity.

Waooo what a talented being. Some of his views is more on theocentric psychology. Free positive thinking without the complexity of religion. The human is microcosmos and actually need any religion. Every thing is present in humans with little development they can create or achieve anything. The religion was brought by unseen beings to slow the scientific development of humans. Religion don't profit the followers but only the leaders.

Know your self was said by the Africans who live on the Nile river and develop Africa way of thinking that spread know your self Africans

God is A spirit and, you on't find truth about God in religion. but in Spirit. so it's ok not to believe in Ghost or spirits or anything you don't see with your eyes, but it's only foolishness to say they don't exist

great content keep it up!

always fun to watch😃 😃

Jesus Christ came and changed the religious laws of Moses, and taught only love and self realisation. He said God is love and is inside of everything, also if god is in you then you have no limits as to what you can do...Jesus couldn't teach freely as he could be prosecuted so he taught the in parables.... The day he said it as its he became a target 🎯 for the religious leaders. He said I and the father are 1 and I'm the son of God.they knew if this guy continued his ministry they won't get the financial and status benefits they do have that time.we are created in the image of God and we are children of God..that gave us the privilege to do whatever we see fit,hugly intellected than other creatures but same as all creature.like I said God is love and it dwells within you.if you have God/love in you then you won't be able to hurt a fly talkless of your fellow human being. If You realise the God in you,you'll do no wrong, you'll only spread love unconditionally without seeking for love from anyone since you are the manufacturer.... God is love, he gave us all the wonders of the world without charges.... The only the we owe is our flesh, our body is a loan given by mother earth and we must pay back when she asked for it..theres nothing better than paying that loan consciously and with gratitude... Tick tick says the 🕒 with every breath you exhale you're paying your dept until the very last breath, why not make the most out of life by realising the God in you? Liberate your mind and then exist here on earth gracefully.

Great mind!

Man means Mind and Woman is the womb of the mind. She is our most inward reflection. We must go thru her in mastering Self. For she is I and I Am her. We she wins man can not lose in it's most natural sense. We see this understanding with the bees and ants. Al man must learn to do is Be and it is. No theological show and tell or theatrical showcase of good vs evil. Dare to Be Self, which is connected to The All and All.....

Nothing but the fact!

Nobody has the authority or the gift of infinite knowledge to call spirituality benign. I understand people taking issue with the way religion is organised and the conduct of the people who follow it, but is not something that can be completely discounted from the human experience in such a flippant way.

thats a good man ,, all round .

any colabs anytime soon?
