Religions decimate a God-forsaken Africa

[SecularMotion]

The divide between Christianity and Islam has contributed largely to the world as we know it today.

While both these religions – the largest in the world – preach peace and love, some of their adherents have shown strong intolerance of the other, leading to famous conflicts all over the world in which thousands have perished as a result.

But Africa is where this divide is most pronounced and arguably where most violent acts between the two groups have been recorded in recent times. Ironically, neither Christianity nor Islam are of African origin.

In his world-acclaimed and multiple award-winning documentary The Africans, Dr Ali Mazrui digs deep into what he calls Africa’s “triple heritage” of Christianity, Islam and African traditional beliefs.
