  1. If you are anywhere in existence you are in Nature.... Anything you use or make is of and a part of Nature No Matter how you modify A part of Nature it is still a part of and made of Nature and remains in Nature. Necessity is the mother of invention. Why would they make something they have no need of? Thanks.....To my understanding all human habitations are in Nature and Made of Nature. Yes it probable would... If I have enough information to say that the out of Africa theory is true. You do not need proof....Just enough information "beyond a reasonable doubt"
  2. Where Are these inventions? Are they in Nature? Not all man made things are artificial....what differentiates one from the other? So the level of modification of a Natural thing make it no longer Natural but artificial? The engineering and architectural designs of their nests makes both plumbing and electricity unnecessary for theirs needs. So humans habitations are in Nature? We are Mammalian and Mammals are Animals No.....We do belong to the Animalia kingdom Our bodies are different..... Yet We are all Living Things. Many Animals Breathe Air/Oxygen and most if not all are Intelligent....So it likely our souls are same though individual and idiosyncratic. Until better more convincing info to the contrary is discovered or made available....then it is True - Out of Africa Theory of Man.
  3. Yes to race as a Social Construct As it is a social construct....it could be either given the expediency of the political nuances of the dominant class of the time. The Dominant class dictates where you fall in the so called Racial Categorization....The Oppressed has no choice in the matter Such individuals will face questions from both sides...One side will be saying they are "sell outs" and the other will be the are "Honorable". Do such individuals exist...Yes - though I would call them black according to my understanding of racial categorization which it must be understood is every changing according to politics of the time. Whether or not some one is white or black is dictated by the dominant class....look no further than Enrico Tarrio ex leader of the the far right Proud Boys. True.
  4. Yes...and Consciousness.
  5. If it's not still in Nature.....do tell where it is? When man modifies Natures it is artificial....when other animals do the same or similar things its remains Natural. Why is that? Wild as in free.. Human habitations are not in Nature? Human are Not Animal? How so? I told it because it's true. No...Just more advance sentient Beings cool
  6. The authenticity or environment of the given place is not in question.....but the Awareness of it is
  7. To my knowledge All the material that mankind uses is from Nature... Yet when a bird makes something....it remains natural Why is it not artificial? Why would you still considered it a part of Nature... Yes it was not made by humans....but by birds - are birds and human Animals? Simply you still live in that which created you....Every part of you is from and of - Nature. Unlike a mother and child you can never be separated from Nature I quote: as usual the Caucasian interpreters put a spin on it to make them seem like "gods who came from another planet". Truth be told we are all Africans They were Beings from outer space with superior knowledge Then you misunderstood....I was referring to the cat in schrodinger's thought experiment - not Time
  8. Close enough. That may very well be.. Call it what you like.....it is the concept and meaning that brings understanding A particular Reality is Real only to those who are in it.....otherwise it remains a Potential.
  9. Yes i do. fine All these man made stuff from where does man get the material to make these artificial stuff? When a bird or wasp make a nest is that part of nature or artificial? No..... in my definition you would be from and a part of Nature. Initially you said this idea was that of the white man now you are a believer in something you thought the white man made up....Pioneer1 who woulda thought you believe in a philosophy you thought was the white man's. I believe they were Africans.....Sag-gig-ga. Please....I won't belabour the obvious. The Idea of physical beings coming from space posing as gods....the idea is not foreign to Africans nor did they get it from white people. This how you find truth....a search for commonalities and recurring themes globally and historically among many writings and artifacts old and new. That is exactly what the do....its call modus operandi(method) - its one of methods use to find criminals How the Criminal does what he did tells you a lot...if the criminal ties a knot in a particular way(similar) to some one having special training then a conjecture can be made as to where type of individual age and even ethnicity - its call Profiling You said I posted something which I do not recollect posting they way you are presenting it....so yes Seriously.
  10. Remember Rachel or was it Nkechi....
  11. Please explain your disagreement? How are you not from Nature ok Ok What is Your definition of Nature? How about aliens from outer space came to earth as gods... Africans founded Sumer/Sumeria/Shinar according to some historians....if that be the case then its African No....That's not what we were discussing - we are discussing that you thought that white people invented the following idea...Now you are saying the Ancients from all races taught this........Thats a flip. I quote: "I actually want to believe that the REAL identity of the Anunnaki were the original Black men and women of that area and as usual the Caucasian interpreters put a spin on it to make them seem like "gods who came from another planet". The general idea that they were "beings/gods from outer space" is where the similarity lies. No you did not....provide the post in context.
  12. Cool We are Spiritual Beings having a Human Experience.....so we are not just humans. I have no issue with that. It is possible. I do not recall having a issue or disagreement with the idea of entering into multiple realities from the dream state. If you are in the dream state....then you are dreaming and in dream reality. Dreaming about multiple realities is different from entering into a reality. True In the African philosophical understanding of a Holographic Universe it is not so much a Projection but more of The same or similar process on a different scale. The Reason they are called Realities are because they are Real once one has entered a specific Reality.....but the attributes of each Reality will often differ.
  13. The phenomena of the Physical Universe in its entirety. I Do not recollect doing so. I am not backing away from anything I said. Like I kept saying its not theories from white philosophers. Is that what you do? Like Giving white people credit that rightfully belongs to Africans. Excluding "time not existing" which we have yet to ascertained where the idea originated in this thread...and St Germaine. All the others are African and Ancient.....And I have shown that. cool I have made my assertions.....Not to be confused with your misunderstandings of New Thought philosophy and Transcendentalism both of which are white philosophies now called New Age all of which is built on African and Asian philosophy. Cool....so the idea of alien beings coming from another planet to earth as so called gods is neither new age or white contrary to your assertions. As we just heard the same or similar story from the mouth of an African Shaman. You have yet to show where I said that.
  14. The way in which Reality is Created in this Physical experience is Shared in others words on some level of Consciousness it is agreed upon. It is a limitation Constructed through agreement so that Physicality can be experienced. It is now accepted that theoretically time travel is possible....if true the sequencing of time is no longer sacrosanct. On that we will then have to agree to disagree Yes Overlapping realities is being aware of Consciousness existing in two of many of its realities. As Above so below is African and has been around for thousand of years...said to be coined by Thoth an Egyptian (God) As above so below is a basic description of a hologram Please acquire the book "Stolen legacy" by G M James Fractals are also African....see below A blend of both,
  15. Yep....the code status class and style all part of the gangster life. Gangster are all classist elitist and down right hypocritical to be honest....but somehow they are fundamental to many communities - go figure. They are people you respect but should hate...why maybe because of their daring bravado as black males in a white society that should have them running scared. I have seen them make the man(police) back down/back up....More Huey than Malcolm - and to me as a kid on the streets that was some shit
  16. True.... No honor among thieves is true....undeniable true. The Code is real.....every rule can be broken It's a tricky subject...but before you judge please realize the following. The Right of Conquest, The Doctrine of Discovery and Letters of Marque Are Laws....Which Are Fundamental to European civilization - Straight up gangster All Dynasties Emperors Kings Queens Aristocracies and Nobilities started out as gangsters. It's Cops and Robbers on steroids.....You got dirty cops and Robin Hoods in them dere streetz.
  17. True To me there is a difference between thugs and gangsters....Gangsters have a (street) code - Thugs is the law of the jungle. Hence the reason why initially I said they were good for the community.... to those families in the community that they hurt or destroyed - how could they be good?
  18. Cool Maybe "Good for the community" was a little strong.... Yes but for different reasons Yes....But they can't or don't just sell this poison to any and everybody in the community. Not Important but Respected. yep
  19. The Original Uncle Tom is Misunderstood because of the propaganda surrounding his story...Todays uncle Toms are sell outs or worst the bought in(honorable whites) Black Gangster who I grew up around were good for my community....of course because the broke the law the were considered bad. Thugs and Sell out are despicable human beings and to me are the lowest scum....good for no one but themselves and the Ones doing the buying(Predominant society) Rarely does a gangster impose on your world.... The actions of thugs and sell outs often do... The sell outs do not kill you...but they tell your enemies how to kill you Because their actions does not directly ends in death does not mean their actions is not one of the chief determining factor that resulted in deaths. Gangster mostly kill others in the game/business. Yes they sell poison....that results in death and destruction - on some level it is the users choice unless you subscribe to the Pusher man theory. I grew up among gangster and if you rob any one in the neighborhood without permission...you are going to suffer Yes many gangster turn snitch... NWA....what are referring to the Prison Industrial Complex
  20. I think we were referring to either Dinosaur Bones or Schrodinger's cat
  21. Disagreements are healthy so long as Honesty and Respect abides......Growth Happens Debating is fun....support for ideas we hold is Satisfying - which is fleeting I can tell you this about debating with racist....they tend to be full of insults of racial kind and personal attacks rarely anything substantial, meaningful or factual. After that they change their name and come at you again with the same thing from a different angle trying to ensnare you with your own words. Nobody is truly wrong....its just where they are on the learning curve - we learn more from our mistakes than our successes. True You are a little bit of both i suspect. I be li eve. Sounds like a typical life in the West Our life paths and experiences are different. You are a worthy opponent....
  22. Can't say i remember it though many of the characters seem familiar....its intense
  23. Look up all the definitions in the dictionary/encyclopedia. What is Yours? It surely does. Neither have mine.. Fine I can accept that. The Only reference I remember is that "Time does not exist in dreams" and if it does its not the same way it does in Physical Reality. Ok so which of these are new age and which are not African?....you never said. The only one above I would say is New Age and European...is Saint Germaine. Time is a Mental Construct....Eternal and Everlasting as in Timeless existing outside of time.....is not a New Idea and is African The Anunnaki maybe the same or similar Beings as the Nommo or Chitauli of the Dogon. To some historians the first great Rulers and Civilization in what is now called the Middle East were African The Following is the Testimony of a Zulu Sangoma
  24. True....unceasing prayer and worship. Sadly I used simple gematria to decipher your numbers.....but it seems you used another layer of code or Hebrew gematria did not get it as you said.....Dedication is Required
  25. True...it must it always has. You into numbers 13 1 20 20 8 5 23 7:7-11
