    Very true, westerners separate the negative from the positive, without knowing that they are both together, another thing that most of the westerners need to realize and free themselves in letting go of the belief in ""satan"", its time to be logical and understand that the "devil" doesn't exist, only positive and negative energies that we created with our characters, our intent. our belief, what we are constantly talking, thinking and doing daily, our behavior!!¡¡ is shaping our destination in life...!!!
    'See God created everything in 2s, like;
    Women/Man,
    Yes/No,
    Up/Down,
    Right/Left,
    Day/Night,
    Good/Bad,
    Life/
    'For that reason we should always love and respect everything that is in the existence of our beautiful and benevolent universe, everyone and everything is connected, we all become one {☝🌍} by you believing in a devil thats tempting you or watching you, you are creating fear, fear doesn't exist only in your mind, fear only will bring illnesses and catastrophic situations into your own personal magnetic field, free yourself from thinking in stuff that is not serving you in a healthy spiritual energy path, be a logical thinker..
    Free yourself!!!!
    Empower yourself with our wise, beautiful and benevolent universe......🌍

    As a theologian, I can confidently say that we have a lot of oral traditions that can match either of the Hebrew or Greek works. We are closest to the Hebrews. As Hebrews are best known for economics, analytic physics and philosophy, we too can make giant leaps in science if we could pholosphize on the traditions of our common heritage as Yoruba. Thank God for this woman and others dedicated to the reconstruction of our cultural self!

    Ifa is a method of divination evolved under the Yoruba religious system (Much as you have the IChinq in the Bhudist, the Urim and Thumim in the Jewish, the Tarot in the Wicca and so forth), it itself is not a religion but a system of divination. Used in the verbal sense, 'to d'afa' means to cast the lots of Ifa (Under the Ikin system, the lots traditionally consists of dried Palm Kernel nuts).
    In the light of recent technological developments Ifa though mathematically binnarial is more akin to quantum entanglement wherein matter (Corporeal) and Ideas/thoughts (incorporeal) and so forth exist in a singularity much like saying 'Aiye' which could refer to matter whilst also referring to antimatter.
    There is no deity nor religion called Ifa (though the eerindilogun system is often used during idolatory rites).
    Ifa is a physical representation of an ancient yet effective quantum system of divination.
