Default The God of Africa and the African God

According to my Grandfather, "God is an African". I wanted to know so I asked my grandfather during my twelfth birthday whether "God is black or White?". My grandfather replied "some gods are black and some gods are white but the Almighty God is an African since we are Africans" He continued, "The Almighty God has no color, no race and no gender and that makes Him the Almighty (Onyame)"

What do you think? Do you agree with Grandpa?

If God is bounded by race and gender, then he cannot be Almighty. If God is bounded by color then he cannot be Almighty. God has no race and He has no gender. One thing I will point out here is that, there is no African God and there is no American God. There is no Muslim God and there is no God of Hindu. God is one and God is the same God for all.

there is no God.

I'm not an atheist, but if at all a concept of God should exist it should not be a human like anything.


We are all a part of the universe. Animals, rocks, water and we all depend on each other in some way. None is better or worse than the other.

The universe is ONE.
To me there is no GOD. There is only everything.

Everything connecting as ONE.

No God has no race, because GOD IS NOT HuMAN. God is anything.. is everything..light, african, asian, rock, tree, oxygen, sulfur, sun, space, vacuum, everything that exist even that that does not. And it is all connected to form the universe. If you want to call that God; fine.

Africans need to stop being controlled by religion. But well at the end of the day lets just hope it brings more good to them than bad.

well, God created everything but God is not just anything. God is a being in itself and God is "SOMETHING" and not "Nothing". I do believe in God. I do believe that there is a being out there who sees all things and who provides for all beings and who is the all-powerful and all-knowing. For there to be something, there must exist what it takes for that thing to exist. There must exist what it takes for me to exist. God
