I believe in
God.
I believe in
my country, Nigeria
I believe Nigeria’s
outgoing First Lady was spot on when she wailed ‘There is God o!’
I believe Nigeria is presently not a country many Nigerians are quite proud of,
except for a few Martin Luther King Juniors who yet have a dream that ‘one day…’
I believe in
creationism. The Universe is too ordered to have begun from a chaos which
itself had no cause.
I believe in
freewill
I believe
much of the evil in our world is because man has this freewill to choose to do
good or wreak havoc.
I understand
agnosticism and I can relate to it
Atheism, on
the other hand, I think is the height of arrogance which of course is ignorance
inflated.
I believe in
love, romance, you know? That universal stuff that entire music genres are made of?
I believe in
living life to the fullest which, for me, means discovering and pursuing that
purpose beating inside your chest.
I believe in
laughter, loving life and having fun.
And yes I
believe sex is fun and it was God’s idea. Yayyy!
Sex, I
believe, is most fulfilling (emotionally and spiritually) in the context of marriage
(regardless of how many times I have personally done contrary).
And speaking
of marriage, I believe it should be between a man and a woman.
By the way,
I believe in Jesus as Christ.
Therefore I
am CHRISTian.
Yet I believe
much of organized Christianity has been, and still is ‘anti’ Christ. E.g. The
Crusades, The anti-abortion crusades in America, the violence towards and
resentment of gays and lesbians globally, etc.
I believe
homosexuality is not just a sin but an abomination before God.
Yet I
believe God loves homosexuals, strippers, porn stars, etc, just as much as He
loves me.
And who says I
can’t have an alcoholic drink because I’m a Christian? I believe it’s the preachers
(most of them) who say so. Have you ever wondered why Jesus’ haters called him
a ‘winebibber?’
However, I
believe no one (Christian or not) should get drunk or high, or permit
themselves to get out of control even if it’s now trendy to be ‘turnt up or what!’
By the way, I
believe Korede Bello has a right to praise God.
I believe in
one undivided Nigeria.
Handover
approaches and the ‘people’s General’ has nothing to fear. Nothing but his
four-eyed senior colleague from the state whose name rhymes with palaver.
I believe
exciting times are right ahead…
And I’m excited!
