Critical Thinking: A Panacea for Personal and National Rebirth

- December 05, 2023

By Ogiri John Ogiri. I do not intend to provoke, by this piece , what philosophers would refer to as a conceptual crisis.Hence, I have decided to evade any academic attempt at a conceptual definition of the term "Critical Thinking" in order to focus on practical areas I think we should use it. ( You can consult Silvano Borruso's The Art of Thinking published by Paulines Africa in 1998 for more on Critical thinking) Over the years, I have observed, of course, through personal interactions and pen contacts with some Africans particularly Nigerians, that Critical thinking is an area dreaded and avoided by many. Yes, critical thinking, the type that can dislodge and expunge from our minds, false religious beliefs and restore our minds to critical consciousness and bring about a fundamental change in what we believe, how we believe and the way we do things, is avoided by most Nigerians. Many believe that, there is nothing we can do, usually ending by saying "...

BACK-TO-SENDER IS NOT A CHRISTIAN PRAYER

- July 03, 2023

Anyone teaching or praying back-to-sender does not understand Christianity. Evil/satanic forces exist. Human beings employ the services of satanic powers to do harm to other humans. These are absolute facts. Believe it or leave it. Consequently, a Christian should pray against evil forces. Jesus teaches us that in the "Our Father" which is a deliverance prayer because it says, "deliver us from evil" (Matthew 6:9-13 & Luke 11:2-4). Paul also gives us a clear teaching on praying against evil powers (Ephesians 6:10-18). A very wrong but ironically famous way of praying against evil is what has become known as "back to sender (BTS)." It simply means the evil another person sends to harm others should go back and harm the sender (the person who sends it). BTS is famous among Christians and even some clergy pray it and teach and lead others to pray it. All of that is the result of ignorance. Back-to-sender is against the will of God and a contradiction of J...

Know His/Her Genotype Before Getting Intimate

- January 27, 2023

By Ogiri John Ogiri. When meeting for the first time, most singles talk about a lot of things. They ask several questions and talk about many things. But there's one question most singles neglect at first meeting. It is that bordering on genotype. Many think that the question on genotype can be saved for a later date when they become more Intimate. I disagree with this. I believe that the first question to ask in a relationship is " what's your genotype?" If there's any trace of "S" in your genotypes, call off that relationship. It's better to break now and be happy later than to get married and be sad forever. Yes I'm aware that there are some men of God who usually tell some people to pray so that God can change their genotypes. Ignore them. It's a scam. It's a dangerous trap of faith. It's going to ruin your happiness in marriage. I understand they try very hard to mesmerise you with that " what God cannot do doesn't ex...
