A Nigerian Religion Blends Christianity with Islam

It’s not always that you hear the shouts of “Hallelujah!” and “Allah Akbar!” coming together in the same sermon. Yet this is exactly what his happening with this little cult in Nigeria, which has an almost 50-50 division of Muslims and Christians (not to mention a lot of indigenous religions) living in its borders. Is this the possible birth of a new religion that can unite the great divide in world faith? Or a local social curiosity brought about by the co-existence of two competing monotheistic religions in the same realm? The answer may not be clear, but the story of Chrislam is certainly interesting. Don’t miss!
