Another serious incident involving a Murokore pastor (EDIT: original link seems dead: try here). Religion has been used to oppress people for so long. Religion has been used to explain why the colonization of Africa was necessary. Religion has been used to advance the beauty of Apartheid. Religion has been used to enslave black africans and force them into a life that still has negative effects until today. And religion is still used to extort poor Africans. When will this end? Maybe not tomorrow, maybe never.

No wonder why there are so many pastors and fighting each other (even though they say or are said to use the same book in their preaching). No wonder why they are born everywhere everyday in the great lakes region. They get too much money.

News from Rwanda and Uganda alone are shocking. One day is a pastor who defiled young students who are to go to school in order to put the holy spirit in her body, another day is a pastor who uses electro-shocks to prove that he is in direct contact with the holy spirit, a new day comes with a pastor who impregnated a girl younger than his own daughters, another day is a pastor from South Africa trying to fool us by proving the innocence of the rapist pastor without even waiting for the trial to conclude … the list is long.
