Renowned Afrobeat singer, Seun Kuti, had in an interview with Hiptv revealed why he doesn’t subscribe to the belief in God as commonly understood.
In the interview, Seun rejected the notion of a God overseeing humanity and passing judgment after death.
He said his belief does not align with the concept of a deity orchestrating the creation of the world.
Seun questioned the concept of ‘ a creator of the world” especially considering the substantial suffering and deprivation endured by the world.
Seun suggested that while there might be something beyond our understanding, his own beliefs do not align with the traditional narratives depicting God in the manner commonly portrayed.
“I don’t believe in God. I don’t believe in the concept of this guy watching everyone’s, and he will judge you when you die.
“I don’t believe in the concept that people believe in God. I don’t believe that there is something responsible for the creation of the world.
“I mean, who wants to create this? If someone actually created this, are we supposed to be giving the person credit?
“80 percent of human beings are living in hunger, and we are supposed to be his most prized possession. There is something, but not the way we are told that it is.”
