Religion is the number one cause of the impoverishment of Ghana and Africa as a whole
In Ghana and all black African countries in Africa, people frequent churches in the hope of worshipping God seven days a week and at many times a day. They spend most of their time in churches, praying to God and consulting with their pastors and prophets, same believing that such is the means to unlock the gates of heaven to shower upon them blessings, prosperity and abundant wealth from God.
Most of them have even come to see their pastors and prophets as God who have the power to take them to heaven should they obediently heed whatever they tell them.
Productive man hours are lost for the fact the church members spend all their time at churches, doing nothing that will practically boost the economy of the nation but fill the long dirty pockets of their pastors and prophets.
When a church member is sick, they are taken to the church house to be prayed for. They remain there until they die or their health worsens before they are rushed to the hospital to die. However, when the pastor or their wife or children fall sick, they are rushed to the most expensive, well-equipped private hospitals for treatment.
Many have been in the churches for years praying all the time to see God’s favour but are always poor, if not poorer than before they went to the church. They continue, and are encouraged, to pay their tithes, offertories and dues, by their pastors. While they stay poor and unintelligent, the pastors use their tithes and offertories and dues paid as their personal money to live affluent lives at the expense of the congregation. Is this not stupidity by the church members?
Many a Ghanaian or African by their Christian religious beliefs has been made to understand that the world is coming to an end soon so they will not do anything profitable that has a long term benefit to themselves and their community. They will not have sufficient days or years to live on earth to enjoy the fruits of their labour so why bother themselves, some say.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
