If this is true.
And if this Indian man WAS indeed granted a gift by a Being (according to the news a Hindu goddess named "Amba"???) that allowed him to live healthily without food or drink since childhood; perhaps we should become acquainted with THAT Deity!

Seriously.

I'm not sure about his lifestyle, but if that had happened to ME......I'd make sure I kept in touch with that Deity.
 

This is one of the reasons I decided to earnestly search for the TRUTH about Spirituality and the Spiritual World.

Too many fables, legends, religious dogma, and wishful thinking has clouded things to the point that many people can't tell what's true from what's false.
 

We can talk about heroes and Ausur and Auset all day.
But according to recent history-
J.Edgar Hoover wanted Dr.King dead, and he ended up dead.
 

Dr.King didn't make it to 40 (in this world) but that no good Hoover lived until he was damn near 80.
I also heard Hoover was behind Garvey's deportation too.
 

He (Hoover) had power.
He had protection to a certain extent.

Who was backing HIM that he was allowed to outlive his opponents (in this world) even if they were more righteous?
Why didn't his tricks and evil plans backfire on him?

What if I were to tell you that the TRUTH of who the Jews and Arabs are is not found in the Bible?

What if I were to tell you that ORIGINALLY the Jews were simply a group of White folks who were among the first to be cleaned up and civilized while in the caves of the Caucasus mountains...

What if I were to tell you that ORIGINALLY the Arabs were simply White folks who managed to escape from the Caucasus mountains and make their way down into the deserts of Arabia where they interacted with the original Black civilizations.....

Would you believe any of it?

  I'm from a generation where modesty was considered a virtue, 

 

I don't know ANYBODY who grew up in Harlem or any other Black community in America in the 60s and 70s who thought "modesty" was a virtue.....lol.

....talking about cats who wouldn't even leave the house before checking in with the full length mirror and making sure their shoes and belt were matching and their hats were properly tilted on their heads before they walked out the door....LOL.

I see the Seroquel is starting to wear off.....lol.

Every time you leave this site you come back just as nice and calm and pleasant.
But all it takes is a few days before the medication wears off and you're back to your old combative hyper-emotional delusional self.....LOL.

Well, at any rate.......

Whenever you take the notion to stop acting a spider-monkey fool......I'd appreciate an APPROPRIATE response to the questions I asked above.

The Mack and Superfly weren't the only films of the 70s.
They were the ones most popularized by the dominant media.

Like I said, you had Dolemite, Richard Pryor films, Bill Cosby films, and a wealth of films by Jim Brown, the Shaft film series, and other films written, produced, and directed by Black people who portrayed Black people in a positive and/or successful light.

Even when they were the "bad guy"....atleast they were successful and weren't playing a damn fool or clown.

And I would oppose financing a film where a black billionaire helps a white felon. Not my money. 

Think of it as an INVESTMENT.
You're investing in a PR campaign that dignifies the image of your people and makes US look like the successful, kind, and saintly ones instead of the criminals and beggars.

Most wealthy White people don't HELP people of color.
Infact, most of them have gained their wealth HARMING people of color.
But they understand the power of image and using the media to make themselves look like generous and charitable benefactors who go around helping humanity.

Think of the Peace Corps.

White people promote these images for a REASON.

The Hero must Die.....Check it out  how many live vs dead heros you know? - Then Reborn

Has MLK indeed been reborn?

And my question is, why did he have to die in the first place?
 

frankster

Very interesting video, thanks!

One of MY questions that I had was answered just a few seconds after I thought of it which was.....if he doesn't eat or drink anything does he urinate or defecate...lol.
Apparently the answer is NO to both.
Not just interesting but amazing.....if this is true.

But there's a difference between him and the brother in the first video.

El-Amin choose to go that route as an adult for health concerns and he is in his 50s.
This man said that he was given HIS ability to go without food or drink since childhood as a gift from a Deity.
If that's true, then we can't expect anyone to just pick up and stop eating or drinking and expect to do as well as him.
He was apparently given a Miracle.

The two cases must be separated.

It was my understanding since childhood that "live" meant it was taking place at the moment.

I realize now that despite claiming to be "live" most media sources have a delay by so many seconds or even minutes so that they can quickly edit out certain content they don't want coming across.

Then there's another term called "real time" which I thought meant the same thing as "live".
Apparently there's a difference though.

Hilarious.

 

White folks would not allow Oprah to produce and show that movie on her OWN network.  They would wipe her sh8t clean off the cable feed. 

And why is that?
Because they don't want to see THEIR OWN people being portrayed as monkeys and buffoons before the world.
Not at the expense of a Black man.

You have your Forest Gumps and others, but even those characters have smart successful White folks in the film to balance off the clowns.

Arabs and Indians are the same way.
How many riots have started in the Middle East over movies portraying them in a less than flattering way?

So then the question is, if THEY know the importance of keeping the White character positive and powerful while the Black actor portrays the negative and powerless.....
Then why don't so many of OUR people understand the importance of it?

Say what you want to about the Blaxploitation films of the 70s, but atleast the Black characters would kick the ass of the racists while calling him "honky" and then proceed to screw as many Black AND White women as possible....lol.
Never losing a fight and always getting away with the bag....lol.

Those movies were simple.
Sometimes unrealistic.

But they FELT GREAT.

Brother @richardmurray you want to talk about a "feel good" movie?

Go watch a DOLEMITE flick...or Three The Hard Way.....lol.
It'll make you feel so GOOOOOOOOOOD to be Black!!!!

richardmurray

If you, Pioneer1 are the producer of said film, based on your words, and with the only change left you can make to manipulate kevin hart's characters background, you demand writers make kevin hart a construction worker laid off or college student dropped out, am I correct? your answer in comments please

Yes.
I would.
For a number of reasons.......

For one thing, not only do adults watch these movies but BLACK CHILDREN watch them.
And children often watch adults in real life as well as in the movies and on television to LEARN THEIR ROLE in society.

Just like children learn how to talk, groom themselves, and eat by watching adults do the same.....especially those who look like him....
If all Black boys see on television and in the movies are Black men being criminals, felons, and con artists....psychologically he feels this is telling him this is HIS role in society.
He can't picture anything else because that's all he sees when he goes to the movies or turns on the television.

White social engineers and psychologists know and understand this; which is why they used to promote Westerns and G.I. Joe soldier toys during WWII and the Vietnam Era.
To encourage boys to want to grow up and be soldiers.

No sir.

If it's just a movie......
If it's artistic fantasy.....
Then let's imagine and fantasize what WE want to see.....a successful Black billionaire who stoops down into the gutter and helps a poor ignorant White felon.

How about that.....since we wanna play make believe.

richardmurray

Ok......
So a movie about a Black man who is an ex-con and a White man who is a Billionaire does NOT re-enforce racist stereotypes?

-Gotcha

Thanks for the correction.

And here I was mistakenly thinking that the writers could have just as easily made Hart's character a college drop out or laid off construction worker going through the same problems and it would have easily harmonized with the overall plot of the movie....but....obviously that wouldn't have worked.

@Pioneer1 This film isn't a comedy. this is a feel good film. There are comical moments but even those are in an unfunny premise. 

Your wrong, the subtext of the film is how people going through different struggles can help each other. In the end of the film, Hart has reversed his fiscal level from the beginning of the film absent any illegal or criminal activity. 

Did you even see the review? 

So.....
The ex-con  WASN'T played by Kevin Hart?

It was played by a White man?
Or White woman?

Tell me where I was wrong.

@Pioneer1 if I told you I had a direct conversation with God (or green little man), choppin; it up the way I would with one of my homeboys, would you really believe me?

I'd investigate.

If you had told me this I would ask myself:
1. Was Troy sincere in his rendition of what happened to him or did he purposely make the story up knowing that it was false?
2. If he was sincere, did it really happen or did he simply imagine it?

Based on more questions I probably WOULD believe you!

When doing an investigation, it's not about believing a SINGLE witness but arriving at a conclusion based on the claims of MULTIPLE witnesses and sources.
 

@Stefan Got an honest question for you.............

I know we don't see eye to eye on a lot of topics however I personally see you as an intelligent and quite informed individual.

However I'm curious to know why are you a Christian and why do you believe in the Bible?
 

Do you have some sort of personal testimony that influenced your faith?
 

I've been watching the footage of the Israel-Hamas war over the past few weeks and I tend to gravitate towards the Youtube channels that claim to offer LIVE footage.

But the thing I've noticed is that most of these channels CLEARLY aren't live.

You turn on one channel that claims to be live and it's bright and sunny outside.
Click on another one and it's midnight dark outside.
Yet both of them claim to be "live" from the same region!

You click on a channel claiming to be live and you see images of people running out of apartments and being ushered into shelters while sirens go off.
The problem is, you saw those EXACT SAME IMAGES 3 weeks ago when the conflict first started!
And if you wait a half hour, you'll see those SAME images again....being played in some sort of loop.


I support freedom of information and expression as long as it doesn't cause physical harm so I don't think the internet should be regulated, however little deceptive shit like this does make me understand why there is such a strong call FOR regulation and honesty in presentation.

 

Ok, here we go.......................
 

I'm glad PBT made it clear at the beginning that the Republicans were no better than the Democrats for our people.

Seems to be this thing going around lately where people will condemn the Democrats all day long for being racist but are silent on Trump and the Republicans.

IMO, he's a mama's boy or doesn't really want a woman.

Lol.....perhaps that too.

Remember the other Black Republican ARMSTRONG WILLIAMS was the same way!

Back in his 30s he was talking about how he was still a virgin....and probably STILL is since he hasn't gotten married yet.

 

You know, this seems to be a thing a lot of "professional" AfroAmerican men seem to struggle with.
Finding a mate or finding a sexual partner (female) who is strongly attracted to them in a ride-or-die way.

Plenty of thuggish or criminal or even working class Black men who have no problem attracting women, atleast Black and White women for sexual purposes.
But I notice a lot of professional AfroAmerican men in high positions like politician, doctors, etc....are often either Asexual (not having any or much sex) or gay.

After decades of observing this and talking to different bruthaz who have this problem, I used to think it was the WOMEN not finding them attractive.
I'm beginning to realize that THEY are the main cause because of their over cautiousness when it comes to approaching women.

Tim doesn't take me as being gay, although me may be.
But it does seem like the time of man who probably thought it was "disrespectful" to approach a woman for sex or try to "mack up" on them.

Well, when I saw that KEVIN HART was in it....I figured it would be some sort of low-esteem coonishness involved.

I haven't seen the movie but the synopsis is about some ex-con who gets out of jail and struggles to change his life around and -yada yada yada.......


Hmmm. 
I wonder who's playing the ex-con?



We've seen this shit I don't know how many times.

Just a re-enforcement of stereotypes.
The main theme is no matter how "good hearted" the Black character may be, he's still a crook and criminal and not to be trusted.
 

Damn......

That was cold bruh.......LMBAO.


Hey, what's this about him having a FAKE girlfriend???????

Interesting story by brother Elitom El-Amin

I read that he was born in 1969 which would make him in his 50s.
I'd really be interested in how he's doing 20 years from now if he keeps his course.

Remember the big dude, a young David was supposed to have killed with a rock from his slingshot? He was a Philistine.

They were an ancient people who lived on the south coast of Canaan. Apparently, they came from the Aegean (possibly Crete) during the latter period of the Bronze Age (12th Century). Deut. 2:23 and Jeremiah 47:4

I don't know about you, but I am stunned by this revelation. It means the Philistines were illegal immigrants. Smite them, O Lord.

I wasn't stunned by it because I've known about it for YEARS.

The Philistines (ancestors of most of the modern Palestinians who call THEMSELVES "Philistines") originally came from the islands of the Aegan Sea and were known by the ancient Egyptians as the "Sea People".

There were two branches of them.

One branch after leaving those islands went to the coast of Canaan and started settling in with the Canaanites.
The other branch left those islands and went to the coast of North Africa and started settling in with the Moors.
They were known as the Amazigh.
