This is the beginning of a study that the author hopes to pursue more in the near future. It discusses one small but important and controversal aspect in the area of indigenization of the positive religions in the context of Africa. By positive religions here, reference is made to those religions that trace their origins to the teachings of some great religious innovators who spoke to the organs of divine revelations and deliberately departed from the traditions of the past.
