He is the richest person in the world: Elon Musk agrees the West is ‘screwed without Christianity’

Elon Musk Endorses Rapper Zuby’s Views on Christianity in the West

Elon Musk recently aligned himself with rapper and social media influencer Zuby, who asserted that the West is “screwed without Christianity.” Zuby, whose real name is Nzube Olisaebuka Udezue, tweeted about the significance of Christianity to his one million followers. He compared removing Christianity from Western culture to “removing the foundations of a building but pridefully expecting it to remain standing forever… All while enemies both inside and outside are trying to knock the building over.” This tweet resonated with many, earning 28,000 likes. Musk, the CEO of X (formerly Twitter), responded with a simple yet impactful, “You’re probably right.”

In June 2023, Musk appeared on Zuby’s podcast, “Real Talk with Zuby Podcast,” available exclusively on X. This episode deepened the public’s understanding of Musk’s nuanced views on religion. While Musk doesn’t identify as religious, his actions and statements reveal a complex relationship with spirituality. During a 2013 interview with Rainn Wilson on SoulPancake’s YouTube channel, Musk mentioned that he doesn’t worship anything but is devoted to advancing humanity through technology. However, in a rare moment of spiritual reflection during the historic splashdown of the SpaceX Dragon Capsule in August 2020, Musk admitted, “You know, I’m not very religious, but I prayed for this one,” highlighting his occasional reliance on prayer in critical situations.

Musk’s acknowledgment of Zuby’s perspective underscores the ongoing dialogue about the role of religion in society, especially as it pertains to cultural and technological advancements. His interactions with Zuby and his candid remarks on religion showcase his multifaceted approach to spirituality and his unwavering commitment to humanity’s progress.
