Ofcourse. And on top of that, they seek to save their children from a lot of THEIR bad Karma and debt by having done most of the dirty and bloody work to establish the racist system themselves. Kind of like how Joe Kennedy engaged in all types of illegal activities so he could generate enough wealth to give his boys John, Robert, and Ted good educations and political connections. That way they could keep and expand the wealth legitimately without the risk of violence, incarceration, or social disgrace.

If he did intend to insert the "not"....then that statement would be more correct, but it would make little sense in the context of our discussion because nobody has even suggested such.

Infact..... Some make the claim that most religions themselves came from White racists. If you look at the "religions" most people of color (Africans, Native Americans, brown Asians) were practicing before Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Zoroastrism....most of them practiced traditional "ancestral" religions. All of them were similar to eachother despite being thousands of miles apart. As soon as Caucasians arrived in their lands, before subjugating them they usually introduced a new religion to them while demonizing their traditional religions.

ProfD Agape love would resolve the problems affecting human beings. Lol....are you sure you support "agape"? That's a religious term.

Troy Does this suggest that things are predetermined? Honestly, I'm not sure. You'll have to ask those who believe in the prophecies of the Bible whether they believe things are predetermined or not. However from a non-religious point of view I would say that it's easy to make VAGUE predictions by studying the history of humanity. Sounds like further proof. Not really. Because many if not most of the prophecies that religious leaders point to in the Bible are very vague and general. Like..."Right before Jesus comes they'll be plenty of war". or...."Right before the end of the world they'll be a lot of Earthquakes and diseases". They have that on the planet right now, yes....however they had that on the planet 100 years ago also. Infact, when has this planet NOT had war, Earthquakes, and diseases in the last few thousand years? I’m curious @Pioneer1. How many prophecies were made, roughly? Not sure. Can you describe three of the most impressive (impossible to predict) that have been fulfilled? That's the problem. I don't know of any prophecies or predictions of the Bible that were impossible for humans to predict that HAVE been fullfilled already. The only prophecy of the Bible I'm thinking of right now that would be almost impossible for a human to predict would be the return of Jesus. ...and that hasn't happened yet. I keep saying "yet" because I don't know the future and the predictions of Christianity, Islam, and other religions may very well take place in the future. So I won't write them off. But I'm not going to sit around doing nothing but wait on them either.

Mutually exclusive is a statistical term describing two or more events that cannot happen simultaneously. It is commonly used to describe a situation where the occurrence of one outcome supersedes the other. For example, war and peace cannot coexist at the same time. This makes them mutually exclusive. Are you saying that in your opinion a person brought up by Christian parents cannot accept Christ? Or that those who accept Christ could not have been brought up by Christian parents?

The issue is.......... Most if not all of the so-called prophecies of the Bible concerning the "end of days" has been fulfilled. They've BEEN fulfilled for centuries. Yet Jesus hasn't returned.

ProfD You also made a good point that despite winning that large sum of money, the brother probably won't get to enjoy it because of his physical and mental condition.

richardmurray Why more discreet? So many black people in the usa talk about speaking in code. Why? 2 major reasons: 1. So as not to reveal your plans and goals to your Enemy 2. So that naive AfroAmericans and those who are supposedly standing on the "sidelines" like Asians and Africans don't get confused about who the real racists and bigots are. As I said before, White folks know how to practice racism collectively without having to "organize" to do so. They ARE organized....but they don't have to constantly TELL eachother to organize and rally themselves together like so many of our people have to constantly do. So they can start an organization without the word "white" or build a community without the word "white" in the name but most of them will automtically know this organization or community is for them and their interests. With most AfroAmericans..... If you don't literally put the words "Black" or "AfroAmerican" in the title....many of them will walk right pass the place or organization not thinking it's for them and take no interest in it. But then the problem is if you explicitly label it "Black" and for Black folks; then White racists will point out how Black folks are openly being racists and how Whites could never get away with labeling an organization or place as "White this" or "White that". I liked how we used the word "soul" in the 60s to describe our food and music instead of describing it in racial terms.

Ok. That's your right and I respect it.

ProfD If you ask most religious people, they'll tell you it's part of the "grand plan". They don't get stressed out about it (unless it happens to them directly and then most of them put their religion to the side and human nature takes over) and in some cases they LOOK FORWARD to more war, disaster, and mass casualty. They'll tell you that all of this was "prophesied" to take place and it's building up for either some messianic figure/savior to return and make everything alright or for the end of the world to take place and everybody lays down, a trumpet is blown, and everybody gets back up to be Judged. Ofcourse, this hasn't happened yet....... Plenty of death and destruction but no messiah or savior floating down to save the planet yet. But they still believe it and think it's right around the corner. The interesting thing is the generation that believes this gets old and dies out and a NEW generation comes up believing and preaching the same thing. It's been like this for the past couple thousand years. Napoleon said that RELIGION is the only thing that keeps the poor from rising up and killing the rich....lol.

🥴

I'm glad to see more African nations are deciding to introduce their own currencies instead of trading and doing business in dollars, Euros, and Francs. I'm not sure if it even needs to be backed by gold.

I think the key is for the RIGHT PEOPLE to start loving eachother. There is a lot of love going on in this world, but a lot of the WRONG people are getting the love that they don't need. At my job we just had a situation where there was a couple working together. The woman was a good worker and actually got her boyfriend that job and he kept fucking up and instead of blaming HIM she'd blame the company and management for "picking on" him. He either got fired or quit and she walked right out of the door behind him....over "love". And it was well known that he was both physically and verbally abusive to her. Love the RIGHT people.

Well, if you're planning on going "to sleep" and not waking up.....then you better HURRY UP and apologize for all of the insults and nasty things you'd said to me over the years! You don't want to try to make your way to that "upper room" with all of THAT baggage weighing you down! Hurry up and apologize! It's not too late! Make haste! Run swiftly!

Sad to hear about our brother passing away like that. He's probably at peace now. I still remember when that verdict came out back in '95. I was working in a mall and everyone in that mall were packed in Best Buys and Circuit Cities and Department stores....anywhere that had televisions. All standing around watching for the verdict. When it came down NOT GUILTY it seems like all of the Black folks in the mall started cheering and jumping up and down. I remember men picking up women and kissing them and slinging them around....lol. I remember one older sista who I didn't know grabbing me jumping up and down...titties bouncing all over me....lol A woman can do that now and it wouldn't be a problem.....but back then at that age I had to take a few minutes to go somewhere and "calm" myself down....before heading back out to work LMBAO!!! 😆

Really....... A person should be raised doing physical work from childhood so that they'd be used to that type of labor. You don't take a 40 year old dude from the streets who's used to hanging out drinking and smoking all night and waking up at 1pm for 30 years and try to make him a Master Electrician or Plumber.

That was the answer to which nation you think is better. I asked you what other nations have you LIVED in or atleast VISISTED?

Terrible story. The young brutha looked like he was having mental issues. He should have gotten the help he needed BEFORE he even ended up incarcerated. Too often AfroAmericans (including AfroLatinos) with mental problems are ignored because the behavior they exhibit is often considered "normal" not only by most White folks but even by most AfroAmericans! You see a young brutha walking down the street sweating and tossing his hands and rapping to himself with a crazy look on his face and you think it's just "normal" now. If a White woman was doing the same thing....you'd stop and see if she needs some sort of help or call the cops to come get her. But for a Black man.....let him keep going. Then again.................. The police will usually come out to help a crazy White woman. They'll calm her down, put her in the squad car, and take her to get some help. But who's fault is that? Society...including us...has trained a lot of people to VALUE the life and health of White people more. We need to hold ourselves and our conditions to higher standards. How can others love us if we don't love eachother enough to help those of us who need help the most?

It's ya boy checking in..... I was there and witnessed the eclipse. Here in West Michigan we had about 93% eclipse. It still didn't get very dark. I'd like to see what this new "era" brings.

Excellent advice my brutha. I'd say there should be MORE Black men...and men in general...going to trade school than college because we need more BUILDERS in this world. But don't get it twisted, trade school isn't as easy as a lot of people think. Not only is it PHYSICAL and a lot of people don't like to do dirty and physical work today. But to be a MASTER electrician/carpenter/plumber, you have to be smart enough to pass various courses and levels of training and especially in mathematics. Many people don't make it pass being a "helper" or "laborer" where you just hang around construction sites sweeping up the dust and carrying tools that you don't know how to use -around, lol.

Lol..... Were there some nations mentioned in your statement that I might have missed?

Make no mistake.... They are STILL hanging a few Black folks from trees down South, as quiet as it's being kept in the MSM.

I was trying to see how you arrived at your conclusion. Perhaps you've compared various nations. What other countries have you lived in or visited....whether you liked them or not?

ProfD I wish our brother hadn't gotten found guilty at all, but since he did...I'm glad he only got probation. Yeah, he lost potentially millions.....but atleast he still has his relative "freedom" to find more sponsors, make more money, and rebuild his reputation. BTW..... I wouldn't call White women the "forbidden fruit". They should no more be forbidden to us than Black women are forbidden to White men. The problem isn't Black men screwing White women. The problem is the lack of retaliation on the part of Black men who get harassed and punished for screwing White women by racist non-Blacks and confused Black folks. In the deep South, Black men weren't lynched because they were accused of messing with White women. They were lynched because they COULD be. That was just an excuse.
