There are many ignorant things on this continent. The more backward a place or country is, the more ignorant things people cannot understand.
There are countless things in this place that normal people cannot understand.
Especially in a country like Nigeria, which is superstitious about witchcraft, many different Christian sects are also very powerful there.
Those people can even be described as crazy, because in this continent, there is such a superstitious term as "witch boy".
This tragedy is entirely the result of the expansion of Western churches of different sects in Africa and the competition for believers. The locals lack education and often blame ominous people for unfortunate events that occur at home. Children who have no resistance become
The scapegoat.
In some countries and regions on this continent, more and more children are regarded as witch boys possessed by evil spirits. As a result, they are beaten, tortured and even brutally killed.
Many years ago, African women and the elderly were the most persecuted by witchcraft, but now children have become the biggest victims.
Most of them are boys around ten years old, mostly orphans, street children, children with albinism and children with disabilities.
Some ignorant locals even believe that pouring gasoline into their eyes and ears can drive away evil spirits! More and more children are being forced to drink pigeon blood and oil to ward off evil spirits.
Continuous war, civil strife, extremely uneven urbanization and poverty are the main causes of this phenomenon.
Some poor families even kick their children out of their homes on the pretext that their children are haunted by witchcraft. In many places, exorcising witch children has formed a complex and profitable economic chain.
Not long ago, there was a news report about a child sleeping on a felt in a hospital covered in blood and ants, staring at the wall with no hope of life.
Because the priest claimed that he was a possessed witch boy, his superstitious father poured strong acid into his mouth to exorcise the demon. He struggled desperately and the acid splashed around, destroying his face and eyes. He died a month later.
This kind of tragedy is really just the tip of the iceberg on this continent. It is conservatively estimated that there are thousands of children on this continent who are persecuted for this every year.
Of course, there is also a more cruel reason. If there is one less person in the family to support, it will reduce the burden on the family. Therefore, children who are abused or killed as witches are often the children's family members...
The main culprits are the churches! Those God-believing bastards!
This kind of ignorance is rampant on this continent, and it is indistinguishable from the conflicts and disputes between churches.
Due to the expansion of churches of different denominations in this area, there are too many and fierce competition. Pastors of some churches even adapt to traditional African superstitions and establish authority by discovering the magical powers of witch boys and attract local people to believe in them.
Use this despicable and shameless method to achieve your own goals.
At least half of these cruel incidents involve Christian church pastors. They take advantage of the poverty and low cultural level of the local people, charge fees, and use cruel methods to exorcise witch children.
I really don’t know how the God these people believe in would despise them if he knew about it?
Oh...no, the God they believe in will forgive all the evil things they do, as long as they pray.
Some of these poor children were disfigured by their mothers pouring corrosive liquid, and some had their skulls cut off! Some even had their fathers drive nails into their heads, and some were buried alive by their cousins!
In this place, the church is very powerful, so no one dares to resist or disclose the identities of those people when they are persecuted, for fear of retaliation.
Moreover, the people in these churches are so shameless that even if they have done evil things, they will not admit it. They say that they only pray to exorcise demons and will not use cruel violent methods.
It is these sanctimonious guys who have turned this place into a hell for many children!
Those priests who use these perverted methods to exorcise demons will also say that if the child is not tortured to death, it proves that the exorcism is successful. If the child dies, then he is dead.
Anyway, the locals are ignorant and superstitious. No one will be detained or deported by the police for this kind of thing, because they all believe that this is a normal thing.
At this point, this continent has formed a very terrifying chain of interests.
Those perverted pastors will use this method to make money, and the evil things that happened to those poor children are not just that.
Children who were abandoned because they were witches have also become the targets of people with ulterior motives abroad.
How many countries do people come to this continent to find ways to obtain human organs? Things like corneas are very valuable.
There are even more perverted countries, such as Japan, because some perverted people there like to eat... and some poor children will be captured alive and put on freighters bound for Japan.
These things are so dark and terrifying that it's unbelievable.
In addition to the ignorance of the local people and local poverty, there is another big reason, which is the abnormal psychology of today's people.
Is there anything that people today can’t do?
As long as there is profit, there is nothing that no one dares to do. As long as there is buying and selling, there will be killing. This does not only exist between humans and animals, but also between humans and humans.
For the sake of profit, many people no longer regard human beings as human beings at all, nor do they regard themselves as human beings.
These people who will do anything for profit are simply devils.
Calling them devils even exalts them. They are not even devils. Because even devils will not do things that persecute children...
And on this continent, there are so many such devils that the number of them is unclear.
Think about the luxurious life of the popes of the church. Does this have anything to do with everything they originally believed in?
Obviously not. These people who have reached the central power no longer believe in those bullshit doctrines! They just need to make believers believe it.
And what they have to do is use the trust of believers to get the benefits they want.
To put it bluntly, in this continent, all religions are fucking crooked. Only those relief societies that consider the people here and those institutions that really help the children here are their gods.
Those bastards who hang on to God's head but do devilish things are a group of people who should be cut to pieces.
In this huge circle of economic interests, Lai Wen is also involved.
Of course, he definitely has nothing to do with the church, nor does he have anything to do with the pastor. These things are basically things done by those bastards in the West.
The things Lai Wen does are also related to organs. In this circle of interests, Lai Wen doesn't feel how dirty and despicable he is, because he believes that even if he doesn't do these destructive things, there will still be others.
Do it.
If he thought about it this way, he felt that he was very noble.
He may even feel that if he does it, he can save the lives of those poor people, but if someone else does it, those people will not even be able to survive.
But Lai Wen never thought about how the child would live after he deprived him of his cornea.
Is this any different from letting someone die? There is no difference at all.
But even so, Lai Wen was still very determined not to let go of the huge benefits involved.
