Ai. The black woman started out so strong in the logic department, only to have it squashed at the last sentence with the hidden racist card up her colonial sleeve. 😔
The only reason why Africans used to worship different gods, was for the exact same reason the other zombie cults in other parts of the world did.
In simpler terms: A black tribe fabricated a set of answers for what they didn't understand, and attributed the weird and wonderful and inexplicable at the time to a god. Or several gods, for that matter. Then they bullied each other to believe it. Their sangomas and witch doctors were the pastors and priests of today.
A while later - which may be many centuries in African time - another tribe that also created their own god-thing came along, the tribes fought pure caveman style like primitive people do, and the winner's religion became the new default.
Another while later, European nations went to black Africa, bullied them, and then the blackies started believing in the gods of the conquers. Which happens to be either Islam or Christianity.
So, no, race card lady, blackies aren't searching outside the box, they drooled for very long over their own gods. They merely switched to another set of fables because of indoctrination from stronger zombies, and the same happened to different white tribes in Europe over the millenia.
Religious black people, which makes up the majority of that 'race', are still firmly in mental slavery chains.
