Agames are funny because they are dumb? What is the point of severing their church from the Ethiopian church other than a childish gesture. What will happen to all the Agame priests and church workers outside Tigray? Are they automatically excommunicated? What about the Agame lay people? Where will they go for their spiritual needs?

Whether one believes in Christianity, Islam, Hindu, Yahweh, Judaism, Wicca etc......there is one common Universal strand that connects all these religions- the inseparability of beliefs and 'TRUTH' (whatever the Truth is for each and every respective religion).

And I always wonder if the word 'Truth' has ever existed in Agames lexicon! Here are some 'Truth' from the Ten Commandments. How many of these have been practiced by Agames, as a society, or evern better by their churches?

You shall not kill.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
You shall not covet your neighbor’s goods.


So in the absence of any 'Truth' these Agames hold close to their heart, whether they sever their church from Ethiopia's is meaningless. In a typical Agame way, they're always fluff, no substance!
