I can see some of me in both of them... So now you are Going to show me were I said or Claimed to be Christian? I see a lot of you in Brotha Bigga.

@ProfDIt was way too much fun .... and challenging to just abandon ship - "A luta continua vitoria e certa"

No...I do not consider myself a christian Do I Obey the 42 Confessions of Maat...yes. Do I uphold and live by The Ten Commandments...Yes Do I try to Imitate the Christ....yes Do I practice The Noble Eightfold path...Yes. In short I try to be True to the Spirit Yes....God is the Heavens and The Earth - Autogenous. True...but not Beyond Recognition. True..I get your Meaning - I prefer Spiritual Traditions...instead of Religion - though the true meaning of(the word) religion is blameless. Acts 17:28 Luke 17:20-21 I recognized the above was not directed at me but at Pioneer1 who is only being provocative and obstinate as I have told him already that I am not a Christian. Pioneer1 and I are now in the Reductio Ad Absurdum Argumentum Phase of our dialogue....We are way pass Meaningfulness - currently drowning in the swamp of Equivocation.

Every continent have Wars.....Ukraine Israel Every continent and race have cannibals.....Jeffrey Dahmer Carroll Cole etc... It seems to me you are a propagandist furthering an Anti-black agenda with no regard for truth or the well being of Africans or Black people.

What does it say? Show me where I contradict? Exactly.

Well what do you think it means? Life is an unfolding, a process of "formation and transformation" that starts before birth and does not end at physical death https://www.encyclopedia.com/environment/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps/afterlife-african-concepts Cool....I understand that you are confused On that we will have to disagree.

The History we reference is proof of extreme Violence...That is unquestionable. Here you are calling the Victims of the some of the greatest historical violence....violent - with no proof. further victimizing the victim Bowling for Columbine (2002) - A Brief History of the United States Scene (8/11) | Movieclips

It Does. Did you read the quote i gave above... Nature and God is the Same....Pantheism Simply....Everything is subject to change - hence the reason we keep Re-confirming our theories thereby growing our understanding.1

Our Rights are God Given....Evil and Racist Individuals denied us our Rights - We fought and won them. Stop it.....One Family or Company in the White community is responsible for 100's of thousand of deaths....so bad it's called an epidemic - and it is on going. National Safety Council | The opioid crisis (2021 Data) The Nazi's cooked Millions of Jews Southern Confederate Racist whites Lynch thousand of Black and destroyed 100's of Black towns throughout the South. Practical committed Genocide on Native Populations. Show or tell me about these so called opportunities? Good for you. I love our Culture...It shines in Music Sports Science Family Entertainment Politics etc Which Liberal Politicians are saying that "we aren’t intelligent enough to make it on our own."? If as you say Liberals do not care for us..........Do You think Conservatives Care about us? I say we should do our own dirty work.... Whose do you say we should do?

So you have no evidence of her saying anything anti-semitic....I get upset when people spread lies You have no Evidence of her " fanning the flames of anti semitism and not protecting jewish students." And it Does.... Its a College Campus where almost all issues from every perspective is discussed....sometimes things get heated Was anyone killed or hurt? Was there any property damage? There is no "also" here ....She is not Guilty of Anti-Semitism Claims of plagiarism....Are at best Allegations and will remain so - No statutory body has been empanelled to find guilt or innocence The Corporation that is Harvard found No Violation or Misconduct....which is tantamount to a not guilty. "Following an independent review, the Corporation announced that though instances of improper citations had been identified in Gay’s scholarship, they did not violate Harvard’s standards for research misconduct." https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2024/1/3/plagiarism-allegations-gay-resigns/#:~:text=Following an independent review%2C the,Harvard's standards for research misconduct.

sorry Gay

Quote one statement of hers that is "fanning the flames" of Anti-semitism....? When and Where did Claudine Day say anything Anti-semitic? Even a Congressional Hearing could not find her guilty of Racism/Anti-semitism or of putting anyone's life in danger.

In my estimation they were both fired over Free Speech on the Israeli-Palestinian issue....Cornel was never given tenure because of his stance on that same issue How do you know this?

Cornel West suffered the same fate for the same reason at Harvard....

Who is.....Who?

Where you see death...I see The Transmutation of The Tree. Yes there is a lot we do not know.....Death is a Transition. endorses such a view claiming that “Those who are dead are never gone: they are in the thickening shadow… they are in the wood that groans, they are in the fire that is dying… they are in the forest, they are in the house, the dead are not dead”. http://mojaafryka.weebly.com/life-after-death.html I see no difference....Nature Created God or God created Nature - Nature = God No ...since in this case you have failed to make the distinction between He said and what You are saying. It was always a Theory Change is the Only Constant....Theories Laws and Facts are subject to Change

I have seen no such Proof African Spirituality God = Nature No...You are confirming what was said by him. You quoted Hawkins: Each time new experiments are observed to agree with the predictions the theory survives, and our confidence in it is increased; Yep In the sense that it is not final. cool

I have only told the truth....just not all of it - for some truth is only tangential. Nature is Always Life Giving and Supporting....Humans Mostly see Nature as Positive Lightning does not "Take" Time Life or Sight anywhere? If so Where? Life can only be Transformed and or Transmuted The Life of the Tree has been Transmuted into various.....Micro organism, Flora and Fauna Death is One of the process of Nature....Change and or Renewal. Yes Sir..... if you say that "I am black" then you have confirmed my assertion. That is you Confirming It is a part of the scientific process to continually and repeatedly confirmed theories Ok Then that is you Confirming that "I Said I was Black" There is no confusion on my part....Repeatable Confirming Theories is part of the Scientific Process. .Hence the necessity of Repeated Confirmations....from other sources and schools of thought. Not to worry....I Am Patient You cannot handle that......Whilst science tries to be discrete - Scriptures deliberately obfuscate.

That what I have to add will not change any of the Facts Germane to the case....The difference is inconsequential. Some times more than One meaning....nuanced We covered this Already here is "was actually killing living things.....which is a natural occurrence in nature" Now you confusing Parlance(how we use words) and Meaning. Lightning cannot take....Lightning Strikes Life is Energy....Life can not be destroyed or ended only transformed. No its semantics...plain and simple - let's venture down this rabbit hole of semantics and parlance Where did the "lightning" take the tree's life to....? Where is the Life of the Tree Now? Exactly If you say I was or is black...Then that is you confirming my assertion that i am black - that is you saying i am black if you say that i say i am black...then that is you confirming that i say i am black - that is you saying that i said i was black yes true Yes Never said they were....but context is essential You can....but most people want confirmation

They differ only in degree....it is not a miscalculation. Your own post and definition agree with where I stand on the Issue... Do not confuse semantics with accuracy.... The Tree Gave its Life....To support Life You are Confusing Sophistry and Semantics as Scientific Inquiry. If you accepted and restated that I was or is Black ......Then you have Confirmed my Assertions of Blackness. Fact: In science, an observation that has been repeatedly confirmed and for all practical purposes is accepted as “true.” Truth in science, however, is never final and what is accepted as a fact today may be modified or even discarded tomorrow." https://ncse.ngo/definitions-fact-theory-and-law-scientific-work

True... They both convey the same General meaning - which sufficient. Yes....False equivalence - A part is not the Whole Men are are part of Nature. Then it Life Giving. But they mean the same in the context of Scientific Theory

No Regrets....Always is Good and mostly or tends to is just as good. Then its Life Supporting. The exact words are not there....but different words taken in context means the same. The Quote from Hawkins: "Each time new experiments are observed to agree with the predictions the theory survives, and our confidence in it is increased; "

Yep.. mostly or tends to.....is good enough. Go back later and so how many living things are benefiting from that single tree death....some are unseen. Nature concerns seems to be with.....Life. I have no problem with his definition as seen in one of our earlier exchange Proven Accepted and Confirmed until....Disproven On 12/23/2023 at 2:51 PM, Pioneer1 said: We shouldn't just go around accepting things ONLY because we haven't found a better explanation...yet. frankster said: Yep...... that is the idea.

Maybe not....but it is always Life Giving and Supporting True It wasn't the First and it won't be the Last....Life continues, out with the Old and in with New - Change is The A Universal Constant Well Yes....But were they - chances are their Genes continue on. As Human we should.....The Greatest Good to the Greatest Many. Like how a Three D printer works...Adding Layers and/or Subtracting Materiels - Stacking. New Research Confirms 'Out Of Africa' Theory Of Human Evolution "New research confirms the "Out Of Africa" hypothesis that all modern humans stem from a single group of Homo sapiens who emigrated from Africa 2,000 generations ago and spread throughout Eurasia over thousands of years. These settlers replaced other early humans (such as Neanderthals), rather than interbreeding with them." https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/05/070509161829.htm What SAys Ye now?

Nature tends to be mostly Life Giving and Life Supporting. Really.....Disaster come Disasters Go Big Little or Other - Nature continues On Depends on how they are Stacked or Positioned Theory. Look at the meaning of Theory you yourself posted.....it says Accepted Well yes it is a guessing game...in which experiments are designed to test those guests/hypothesis The Longest-Running Evolution Experiment Patricia Wittkopp - Evolution in Black and White: How Fruit Flies Change Their Spots and Stripes
