My Post on Normalisation, Faith and Social Change Was Removed

A thread about two lesbian couples playing football together appeared on NaijaWorld’s front page. I commented that normalisation is a normal part of human society, but my post was removed. In the passage I shared from my fictional Book of Universal History, I argue that many beliefs and practices once considered unacceptable can become accepted over time. I also question religious ideas of divine anger, punishment and fear. My main point is that people give power to beliefs through repeated acceptance, storytelling and propaganda. I believe people should think critically rather than be controlled by fear.
