Renaissance & Inculturation

This created platform, starting flawy as it is, is born out of a strong uncontainable passion regarding the need for intellectual discourse, rational appreciation, and authentic actualization of our Catholic faith. 

From the great deposit of knowledge bequeathed by our cultural ancestors, and in line with the great faith of our spiritual ancestors, it is hoped that an authentic proclamation and actualization of our one and holy Catholic faith, in synergy with our cultural roots, would be derived.

I have realized the necessity for this sort of work if we are to recover and retain anything of our cultural heritage, even though, I am well aware of my great lack in the actualization of this vision, which I am personally convinced is the chance for the sole survival and purification, not only of our faith but of the destiny of Christianity in our nation as a whole. 

Faith becomes more meaningful when culture is properly rationalized and actualized, especially for the sake of the young and posterity. 

I owe a big appreciation to a brother: Segun Babalola, whose concern about the future of the Yoruba nation has gingered up in him, the creation of an intellectual correspondence regarding the socio-cultural renaissance and survival of the Yoruba nation, and from whom I have borrowed a cue regarding the setting up of a platform of intellectual discourses.

While my personal inclination is different, because it is borne of my conviction that, the survival of Christianity in our land, depends on a well-lived our Catholic faith and spirituality in line with the development of a well-lived and purified culture, it bears a somehow similar drive from Segun’s passion for Yorubaland.

This platform, therefore, aims at gathering people of similar concerns that would think, dialogue and take action with the aim of harnessing and purifying truths from the deep deposit of our cultural ancestral patrimony in other to better arrive at the great Truth as it abides in our One, holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.
