My comment: I am fine not singing Die Stem, actually, I expected - TopicsExpress



          

My comment: I am fine not singing Die Stem, actually, I expected it to be abandoned after 1994 and had no problem with that. But I also, as an atheist, I am not comfortable asking god to bless Africa. Whose god? The Christian god - it seems. That, too, is exclusive and a form of separating people - a kind of Apartheid, if you will. Africa, like any other continent, does not need some higher beings blessings, but need people who behave ethically, work hard, take responsibility for their own actions, people who do not surpress others, do not take bribes, are not corrupt or motivated by greed. Good people have to make this country work, not god.
