Philosophy of Religion among Bidakho

Abstract

The receptivity and practice of foreign religions in Africa is the source of socio-cultural and spiritual disintegration of African spirituality, communal existence, both relational-participatory and interdependence metaphysics. The resultant features of this disintegration are religious conflicts and persecutions, divisions in the families, break down in morals and values, promotion of vices and separation of the dead in the afterlife. This expose applies process philosophy to unearth bidakho’s religious spirituality as the best alternative to foreign religions. It is a qualitative article that applies phenomenology, critical analytical and rational methods. This article demonstrates that bidakho’s religious spirituality is the best because it unites people, respects environment, promotes morals, virtues and communal existence hinc et nunc and in afterlife. This article is a viable source of information for students, both scholars of philosophy and religion and social policy makers.
