Humans of Lagos Episode 10

I don't believe in anything supernatural, but my society is always hostile to people like me. 
As a matter of fact, atheists have higher intelligent quotient than the theists.

I am an atheist but I've been duped four times by different religious clerics.

Twice was I duped at the same spot on different days by different Islamic clerics.
The first one collected money with the promise to by a glorious Koran, sugar and salt as tools to enhance prayer for me.
The second one asked me to buy original horny sorry honey I meant to say, and lavender for prayer on my behalf.
Both guys concocted fictions about my life, telling me about a great destiny of mine which I think amused me without questioning them nor reasoning deep about.
I gave them cash to implement prayers for me, while I collect their mobile contact for follow up. 
Now whenever I call their number later on, all I hear is a female genie speaking these lines right into my ears; "The number you are calling is not available..."

The other two incidences happened in the hands of packaged, articulate, passionate Christian clergyman and a woman.
Somehow, they always sweet talked me into buying their 'brand.'
And like a sheep ready for slaughter, I obeyed.

With these incidences, I'm beginning to reconsider my belief, there may be God after all. 
I think the God that could make me part away with my cash even when I claimed not to buy into their believes can also help me become his/her representative here on Earth to part away with others cash.

Now, I shall become a believer, turn to a cleric and then move about delivering good news to all men. It is a cycle.

"I have been duped to rise and dupe others."
