In a powerful statement challenging long-standing misconceptions, a public commentator has offered a different perspective on traditional deities, asserting that they are inherently peaceful and not as fearsome as often portrayed.

 

Speaking candidly, the individual pushed back against what they described as “decades of misinformation” that have painted traditional spiritual figures in a negative light.

 

*"Contrary to all the lies they sold to us for decades, deities are very peaceful,"* the statement read.

 

They further emphasized that these spiritual entities do not interfere in human affairs unless provoked, debunking the myth that they are always seeking vengeance or causing harm.

 

*"They will never look for your trouble if you don't look for theirs,"* the speaker added, reinforcing the idea that traditional deities function within a moral and spiritual balance that must be respected rather than feared.

 

This viewpoint comes amid a growing cultural reawakening and interest in African spirituality and traditional belief systems. Many cultural advocates and spiritual practitioners have called for a reevaluation of how these indigenous faiths are discussed in modern society, especially in contrast with narratives that emerged during the colonial era and were reinforced through media, education, and religious teachings.

 

While some critics remain skeptical, arguing that such deities have historically been associated with fear-based worship, others are beginning to revisit these spiritual systems with a more nuanced understanding, often separating mythology from misunderstood traditions.

 

This statement adds to the ongoing conversation around cultural heritage, spiritual identity, and the need to reclaim and respect traditional belief systems without the lens of fear or distortion.
