The advent and approach of colonization and Christianity condemned
the African traditional religion and culture as paganistic and
backward. This created issues of bi-culturalism and
bi-religiousness in personal and religious identity that the church
needs to address. For those living in most post-colonial countries,
there is the existence of deep psychological and spiritual scars
that need healing. The Western Christian rituals in use in most
African mainline churches exclude any traditional religious
rituals. A new pastoral theology of care and psychodynamic
understanding of integrative consciousness is needed in these
contexts. A pastoral care-giver with integrative consciousness
(possessing an awareness of both the traditional and Western
worldview and/or integration thereof) is required to address the
psychological and religious identity conflict existing in
post-colonial contexts such as Zimbabwe.
