Tempers rose on Tuesday at the venue of the ongoing National Conference in Abuja as adherents of the two major religions engaged in a debate over the dominance of Islam in the 1999 Constitution without any mention of Christianity.

But the intervention of the leadership of the conference saved the situation.

The drama ensued when two Christian delegates representing Christian Leaders, Bishop of Kafanchan Diocese of Catholic Church, Joseph Bagobiri and Pastor Emmanuel Bosun (Ogun State), raised the issue which they described as unfair treatment of Christians and Christianity in the country.

Sometimes I wonder..has religion caused more harm than good?

Seem like the more man evolutes, the more he seems to want to do away with religion.

Hairsplitting. Keep it up. This is just like Apple's deciding to bring about racial uniformity on its smileys - irrelevant, but it looks like a fun thing to do.

Focus on the real issues and let us stop swatting at houseflies.
