Multibillionaire Elon Musk demonstrated his understanding that the factor that differentiates the West from the rest of the world is the positive influence of Christianity on society. The statement was made on his social network, X, in a comment on another post on the subject.
Rapper Nzube Olisaebuka Udezue, known as Zuby in the United Kingdom, made a post in which he stated that “the West is absolutely screwed if it loses Christianity”, and added that he formed this perception over the years, and that a more robust explanation It would take an entire book.
In response, Elon Musk made a categorical statement: “I think you’re probably right.” Two years ago, when he gave an interview, the businessman stated that the teachings of Jesus bring wisdom, citing as an example the idea of forgiveness, which basically boils down to “treating people the way you want to be treated”.
Rapper Zuby is the son of Nigerian parents and was born in London. A Christian, he argued that removing Christianity from Western culture is like “removing the foundations of a building but proudly expecting it to remain standing forever.”
If the logical unfeasibility of the proposal were not enough, the rapper highlighted that this attempt takes place while “internal and external enemies try to tear down the building”, in reference to the powers of the Eastern world and lovers of anti-Christian ideologies in Europe and the Americas.
In the post, Zuby went on to compare the West’s historically dominant religion to its “immune system,” and said that the presence of a Christian majority in the West served as “a form of herd immunity” that benefited both Christians and non-Christians:
“You cannot simply have a cultural and moral vacuum. This goes against the laws of human nature,” the rapper added.
In reaction to comment by Elon Musk, the rapper limited himself to saying “amen!”, as the businessman’s interaction made his publication attract worldwide attention to his reflection.
I think you’re probably right
