ESU AND ATHEISTS.

To millitant atheists, I will always point out the adage, Bi a ba nsunkun, ki a ma riran o! While weeping, we should also use the eyes to see!. We should not because we are weeping, totally close our eyes and lose our sight!. In short, there is need for balance, without balance and rationality, you will be no different from Christians and Muslims. If you have no balance, then you are not allied with Esu, you just do things anyhow which does not portray you well. Esu in Yoruba theology provides balance. Esu wants to see what you will do at junctions, how you will negotiate, how you will draw your conclusions, whether you will use your common sense, whether you are smart, whether you are reliable, whether you have good judgement, whether you can be put in charge and etc. If there is something you should have done, but failed to do but you are now waiting for the benefits accruable to those who did the right thing, Esu will laugh you to scorn! You do not have a MBBS but want to practice medicine? Esu will laugh you to scorn!


However, if you are always on top of your game, using ruthlessly your common sense, then Esu will be your trusted ally and best friend. Esu is the favorite of people with common sense.


When President Clinton discovered me via my parents taking me to Adeboye to be slaughtered, he set things rolling to save me. It was his administration that fixed my IT in NAPIMS, NNPC, I had wanted to do the IT at MAKSTECH Nig ltd Ilesa with Prof Makanjuola but someone I have not met till today, a total stranger, not a relative came to offer me a space in NNPC through my Dad's cousin that was a teacher then in Ilesa and I did the IT in NAPIMS, NNPC 2000. When I was there in NNPC, I was tested once according to the principle of Esu. An elderly Engineer, a Chemical Engineer was with my boss, Engineer Gbugu, I was in the adjoining office, then my boss left for lunch, leaving his inner office door ajar and the man also made to leave but came back later, asked my name, I told him and he asked in Yoruba for me to help him get a particular mail that we filed away, he wants to send it to his headquarters in Texas or so and they are waiting for him right now. Now, we file those mails ourselves, me and the secretary and no big deal really in any of them, it was easy to get any mail, since each JV company has a file and everything is by date which the man knows but I figured my boss does not want to give him the mail, so I said I will not be able to help him, I said he should put himself in my shoes, I dont want to fail in the small post I am. He was dejected but made me to promise not to tell my boss which I agreed to. He then left. Later, some corpers were arrested by the NNPC security for photocopying some JV company memos to give to some people! It happened in thesame NAPIMS.


It was later, ten years after, when I became aware of this affair, when I realised I am in this mix around 2010 or 2011 that I realised it was all a test by the CIA under President Clinton and I passed. I was the man, the CIA was Esu. A few more tests and they knew what to expect from me, given any circumstances. This is because character does not change, values do not change. I can not surprise the CIA, neither can Adeboye. They know us well.


So, the CIA is Esu while me and Adeboye are men. I am allied with Esu while Adeboye is being laughed to scorn by thesame CIA because HE IS AN IDIOT! He lacks balance, his dance is off beat, he does not see while weeping.


So in thesame way, while you atheists condemn theology, be balanced, dont go haywire. There are objective theologies, sensible and scientific theologies, of which Buddhism is the most popular. So do not lump all theologies together with Christianity and Islam. People use theology for magic and etc and that is a field of human endeavor.


Do not throw the baby out with the bath water! That would be too bad!
