@Delano and @TroyWHEW! I was wondering if I should enter this room... I was thinking maybe I should find some 'Yo Daddy jokes' or quotes to debate this point, but the
'Yo Mama quotes' outnumber all in this categorey and I am not blessed with delivering funny jokes! Anywhoo, I like to think of myself as a serious person,
but, I can tell you, I too can get caught up into 'wanting to fight someone just because they say something offensive... even if I know I shouldn't take it personally...
there I go, getting all worked up... and regretting it later.
I realize yall may not be all that into Bible history, but this is the best example that I can give for this conversation... David had gotten so worked up when his request was rejected by another man, who he'd ask for help that he sent word to the guy that 'he was going to kill everything that pissed on the wall' and the guy's wife made an intercepting because she knew that her husband was selfish. So she sent a party to meet David and his party and offered them the help. The next day, that guy had a heart attack and died and soon after DAvid, met that woman, ABIGAIL, and he married her. So I think this is a good example of how anyone can get 'bent out of sort and want to fight, no matter if they have substance or not. I hope I would never want to fight someone who steps on my shoes or says 'Yo Mama jokes to me'.... But Hey, I am not sure that I am immune though....
I hope not.
May he RIP!

HISTORY - THE BLACK DEATH PLAGUE, Europe, China & Daniel
Time & Measurement with the Science of Stars
This research about the Black Death Plague [ie Bubonic Plague] will be a brief synopsis of a much bigger subject than can be captured in this post. The importance of this catastrophic event affected many lands and peoples and may help to understand many other events that occurred as a result. My interest in this subject though surfaces because of a much earlier written work and so therefore, I will share certain dates from the distant past that do connect specific events as they relate to this Black Death Plague that happened during the Middle Ages. However, this plague was recorded over here with dates that mark the epidemic as it occurred in Europe but however, the time and origins of its’ appearance has not been disclosed widely. The fact that this horrible plague actually began far away in China and then eventually became brought into Europe and lasted for decades has been downplayed. So following will be a brief outline of a major historical event that, in my opinion, becomes almost grander than what happened in the days of Moses when the Destroyer written to have moved through the streets of Egypt.
Assyrian Empire ----- Neo-Babylonian Empire ----- Medo-Persian Empire ----- Greek Empire -----
Caesar Augustus ---------- AD 1099 ---------- 1256 ------- 1290 ------- 1335 ------- 1492 --- 1607-----
----------------------- 1st CRUSADE -------- Assassins—--End Crusades --- plague --- New World --------
*AD 1290/1291 = The End of the Crusades

[1] The Book of DANIEL Chapter Twelve -- Daniel’s Vision/Prophecy –This was the second time that Daniel had this vision and it was some years later after he wrote about it initially. And at this time, he wrote that he did not understand the timing of his vision and when it would occur. In fact, it was within the vision that he wrote about his confusion as to when this prophecy would happen. Daniel wrote that when he inquired in depth, the angel in the vision told him instead to ‘seal up his vision’ until it was a later time that it should be unfolded. Furthermore, the angel told Daniel that the prophecy of his vision would be manifested based on specific events that Daniel wrote down. Today though, as it has been written, there are no more mysteries and as a result of a process of time, and all of the ‘sealed up prophecies’ have been revealed. That should mean that today, we should all be able to understand what was written in the Bible by the Nebiim prophets. The Bible says that ‘no interpretation is private’ so again, today, we should all be able to understand the Bible should we do try and seek to gain a more clearer understanding of what was written. So now, Daniel did not completely understand his written and published vision because it revolved around a major celestial event that he had not experienced in his lifetime, an event, that led to a better and more accurate method to date and measure time precisely—the Advent of the Star of Bethlehem.
During Daniel’s lifetime and as he lived during the times of the Neo-Babylonian Empire system and the Persian Empire system, the method used to date written works were based on various marks such as a particular kings’ lifetime and his progeny. At the time of his second vision, it was during the AD 400s and this would be some 400 years before the advent of this great wonder of a great star that came into our skies. And so, this very prophecy was based on this star, an event that led to the entire world being able to synchronize and measure time accurately. This then would be the nature of Daniel’s Vision:
… And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it
be to the end of these wonders? And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of
the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth
for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter
the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished. DANIEL 12:6-7.
[2] Unlike Daniel’s vision years earlier, in this vision, ‘the Lord’ was dressed in his death shroud; linen. Also, part of the process in the method and writings of the prophets in the sealing of scripture would be in how the unit of time was expressed at times in prophecy. This method was redundant and was clarified during the days of the Gospel. Just like today, the unit of time was expressed ‘in proportion’ and this was also clarified in scripture in certain scriptures. The prophets wrote that ‘a day for a year’ and this means that certain prophecies were in respect to ‘the measure unit of a year’ and at times it meant both; two prophecies in one. This then was one aspect of how Daniel ‘sealed his prophecy’:
And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?
And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of
the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. And from the time that the daily sacrifice
shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand
two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred
and five and thirty days. But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at
the end of the days. DANIEL 12:8-13.
So now then, I will break this prophecy down point for point:
[3] THE TIME OF THE END--- This does not begin today, but ‘the time of the end’ is relative and it actually began at the First Coming and during the Roman Empire times which is about 2000 years ago. The Apostle Peter wrote that we are at ‘end times’ that would be in respect to things that have occurred in this earth way beyond the time of Adam and Eve. It means millions and millions of years ago even!—What has occurred after the presence of the ‘modern mankind’ is very recent in comparison to what has happened on this earth! So ‘end times’ has not been clarified properly and ‘end times’ which includes ‘Judgment Day’—according to the Bible will go on for another ‘TIME AND SEASON’, meaning another ‘1000 + 90 YEARS!’—according to Daniel’s prophecy and the prophet Isaiah. Judgement Day is actually ‘a judgment millennium’!
[4] THE DAILY SACRIFICE SHALL BE TAKEN AWAY – This would be THE CRUCIFIXION—an event that did not occur until about 400 years later after Daniel wrote about his vision and coined this phrase. The Crucifixion was based upon the advent of the Star of Bethlehem of which became A FIXED POINT that caused all governments to be able to synchronize their dating system and mark historical events more accurately. This prophecy of the great star was written prophecy thousands of years prior by priest-scientist in ancient times. The Crucifixion was well scripted and revolves around, not only what happened during the Roman Empire times, but events that happened in the dawn of our modern civilization! The Crucifixion marks evil practices of human sacrifice carried out against particular humans and dark rituals that occurred even before the time of Noah. However, the PASSOVER observance was detailed in regards to the Sacrificial Lamb [ie Ram] in stages. After the Crucifixion which occurred about thirty years after the birth of Jesus, then about thirty years later came Masada in AD 66 on April 17. So, the practice of bringing the daily offerings to the priesthood and the temple in Jerusalem ended by the Mark of the Crucifixion and death of Jesus when he was thirty-three and a half (33½) years old. The Romans outlawed the Sanhedrin and destroyed the temple based on what happened thirty years prior at the Crucifixion. Therefore, the mark of the prophecy of Daniel revolves around these events that did not happen in his lifetime during the time of the construction of the Second Temple.[5] THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION SET UP & 1290 Days:
So now, with the fixed point of the Crucifixion and the taking away of Jesus, the lamb of God, we may better understand this prophecy. AD 1290 marks the end of THE CRUSADES to the very year. Although secular books publish the date as AD 1291 when the Mamluks and Muslims defeated the Crusaders in Acre (Lebanon), during the springtime; however, the NEW YEAR for Israel begins in the fall during the month of September. The Bible states that, during the days of Moses when this New Year was instituted, it was to be their New Year forever (based on a lunar Calendar). Therefore, technically, the year would be AD 1290 until the fall time. There happens to be a lot more information about this aspect of the scripture. And, the phrase ‘Abomination of Desolation Set Up’, refers to the newly presence of CANNONS that was used by the Mongol forces against the Islamics and Muslims in the ‘the Middle East’ from the Abbasid Khaliphates in Iran all the way west to the Mediterranean Sea. Dead bodies were piled up… and it also consisted at times, of ‘a Black-on-Black’ conflict … There is much more to this story… So the time of the SET UP OF THE CANNONS would be specific because it marks the time when the cannons were first used against the Islamic people, the Assassins, in a stronghold in Iran that originally was a Black stronghold called 'The Eagles Nest'. Therefore, this prophecy can be viewed as a simple math word problem and the unknown can be solved to completely define this prophecy written by Daniel and clarify this aspect of the Bible:
[6] *From the time the DAILY SACRIFICE WAS TAKEN AWAY = Crucifixion = 33.3
*When the Abomination that Maketh Desolate is Set UP = x
*is the sum of 1290 units
*the very end of the Mongol Movement = 1335 units
*unit measure is ‘a day = a year’
33.3 + x = 1290 years
x = 1290 – 33.3
x = AD 1256 [1256.7] -- When the Abomination of Desolation was Set up-- CANNONS
45 Years later after AD 1290 ending the CRUSADES = AD 1335 -- THE BLACK DEATH PLAGUE
So, the set up of the Abomination that Makes Desolation would be AD 1256 according to the Bible, and this would be the exact time that the cannons were used against the Muslim world beginning in the Alamut stronghold in Iran. It marks a time in which the Crusaders used the help of the Mongols to crush the Seljuks Turks and, etc., … the Hebrews Israelites as well.
[7] AD 1335 – The Beginning of THE BLACK DEATH PLAGUE
So, forty-five (45) years after the end of the Crusades and after the Mongolians dominated the regions in the east and ‘the Middle East’, came the Black Death Plague of which began in their lands. Most western publications only begin this plague to begin in 1347, but the deaths of many leaders will reveal that this plague began years earlier. Furthermore, some publish the date of this plague to begin in 1333 while others write 1335 and this is due to the two-year discrepancy that stems from western authors and the western Calendars that still to this day continues. This can be confirmed due to the very Star of Bethlehem, which is the planet Saturn’ that has returned in April 16/17, 2002, and was configured in the very same planetary alignment as it did about 2000 years ago when the Christ child was born. Our Calendars today are two years off.
In conclusion, this prophecy of Daniel’s was written about 400 years before the First Coming and today, it is old news. It has already come to past. This prophecy did not even begin to happen until more than a thousand years after Daniel lived, and he actually lived in Iran, where this killing began in AD 1256 against the Muslim/Islamic world due to the invention of cannons. There happens to be so much more information about this time and history that actually revolves around the dominant presence of Hebrew Israelite people of whom were on both sides of this incredible conflict that was headed up by the descendants of Genghis Khan. In fact, it was these events just like the Exodus, that led to another hated movement eventually against the Jews and Israel in Europe; ‘Get Rid of the Infidels’. Soon, in 1492, Columbus Sailed the ocean blue’… and slavery began. But more than a hundred years prior in 1335, the Bubonic Plague sparked many, many different kinds of people to flee the Eurasian continent and many found their way into the Americas at that time, but this has been kept out of the front pages of our history books. This kind of Biblical history is mute over here in America due to the Separation of Church and State, and the additional fact that the very mother of the Mongol rulers was also defined to be Hebrew Israelite seems unbelievable in one aspect and then unimportant in another aspect, … because most of us over here have no idea of the true origins of the Israelites anyway. It may take a long time, maybe another ‘time and a season’ to unfold all of the hidden truths of what happened in the past.
================================================================================================================================
…In 1335, the Il-Khan (Mongol) ruler of Persia and the Middle East, Abu Said, died of bubonic plague
during a war with his northern cousins, the Golden Horde. This signaled the beginning of the end for
ongol rule in the region. …
…Although the Pax Mongolica had allowed increased wealth and cultural exchange, through
a reopening of the Silk Road, it also allowed this deadly contagion to spread rapidly westward
from its origin in western China or eastern Central Asia. As a result, the world's second-largest
empire ever crumbled and fell.

An epidemic in 1333 which would eventually destroyed two-thirds of China’s population hit the
northeastern Chinese province of Hopei. It took up to 90% of the population. About five million
Chinese people were hit by this plague. Since China was known as one of the busiest world trading
nations. It was only a matter of time before the outbreak of China spread through Western Asia and Europe.

@Troy I referenced the Book of DANIEL Chapter 12 in this research and I re-checked to see if, as you said in another thread that I linked Revelation.

Chedove I'm sorry to say that Amazing Facts site you linked to does not strike me as factual or particularly amazing. The first paragraph in the article you linked to says:
Wow! you see @TroyThis is my very point about my threads not being posted, altered, or something weird going on--I don't remember posting the link you are quoting to back up my research at all. In fact, I don't even know what you are referring to! And like you, this link sounds ridiculous to me. I don't recall reading or linking anything of a sort in response to the United States being compared to Revelations.
I posted a thread about 'the archeology of Noah' and earlier I posted a thread about ancient Turkey Anatolia. I don't recall linking anything to the United States.

THE ARCHEOLOGY OF NOAH: The Chinese NAMI Team
Part one
It was only a few years ago that the movie theaters featured another film about Noah, the ark and the Great World Flood to draw in the big bucks and for other profitable reasons. Not only that but in Kentucky, a major theme park has just opened recently on July 7, 2016 called Ark Encounter, a massive financial project whereby, a giant vessel was constructed on the same scale detailed in the Holy Bible and, it has become a major tourist attraction. What better way to cover up the truth and to continue to draw the attention away from the real historical facts that surrounds the Biblical account in respects to the country we know today as Turkey [ie. Asia Minor, or Anatolia], the ancient governments and civilizations in and around that land, and the kinds of events that did happened in the earth that surrounds the dates and times this event was written to have occurred. However, along with these modern storytelling embellishments of the ark to continue to tell the history from a specific modern western point-of-view, it may also be good to be reminded of other important kinds events that have also been written about during these same timespans. Because of how our educational system has progressed since the formation of this American government, and because of the Separation of Church and State in July 4, 1776, there are other descriptive events and names omitted in our educational systems, major historical events that are aligned around the same time span this ark story was set to have occurred, and this kind of information may help to get a better view of those ancient times.
Even more so intriguing would be that it was only eight (8) years prior to the opening of this theme park in Kentucky and at a time when many Americans were lined up at the polls to vote former president Barack Obama into the oval office, in October of 2008, that an expedition team from China known under the name, the NAMI PROJECT [Noah’s Ark Ministries International], that made a secretive ‘breaking world news event’ when they trekked up into the snowcapped mountains of Turkey (Anatolia) and reported that they had found the real wooden vessel and took their videos and cameras down into parts of the vessel to show the world. Oh but, Hey!—for those of us poor folk over here in America who may believe in the Bible who would never have the chance to see and prove this sight with our own eyes, a trip to Kentucky will probably be as close as will ever get under the circumstances of the times to view Noah’s ark! And too, for some African American descendants of slaves, a trip to visit a museum constructed of a multi-level giant wooden ship, lined with cages to trap animals for a year(!), might not be the kind of vacation experience desired at all, but rather, an uncanny harrowing reminder of the Transatlantic Slave Ship Era that our ancestors were forced to endure for about a years’ journey, being though, tightly packed, and a governmental excursion that occurred for over two hundred years. So even though a financial report has been stated in a recent film documentary that out of all the many tourist across the world that have made this mecca to Turkey Anatolia to see the museum and accounts of this ancient vessel, and even though it would be the Americans that has spent the most money in this endeavor, traveling across the world to this destination in Turkey to see the remnants of this great mysterious wonder, maybe now though, they can save their money and just go to Kentucky. This reconstructed tourist attraction of a massive wooden ship in Kentucky has been equipped with all of the technology of today with its’ surveillance cameras, excellent lighting, air conditioning, harmless sound effects of wild animal sounds and torrential storm wind affects, recreated models of many kinds of animals, and more, therefore, it seems to make for a much better experience than what the eight people written about on this quest could ever have dreamed to experienced. Heck, they even have remodeled forms of small dinosaurs to be a part of this expedition! And, due to the advance technology of today, better technology than even Noah could have mastered in his lifetime, this Ark Encounter comes equipped with best construction of ‘cesspools’ or, restrooms located in many areas in this museum, Oh!—I meant to say, in this vessel!
A group of Chinese and Turkish evangelical
explorers say wooden remains they have
iscovered on Mount Ararat in eastern Turkey
are the remains of Noah's Ark.
Yeung Wing-cheung, a member of the 15-strong team from Noah's Ark Ministries International,
says the structure has several compartments, some with wooden beams, which were
believed to house animals. "It's not 100 per cent that it is Noah's Ark but we think it is 99.9
per cent that this is it," he told AFP.
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2010-04-28/noahs-ark-discovered-on-turkish-mountain/413428
But this NAMI team was by far not the only account reported to have found this ark but this information too, has been hidden. At any rate, it would be impossible to capture the whole story of those ancient times in this short essay and to list all of the ancient historical events that occurred during the timespans that led up to the story of the Great World Flood and to highlight all of the important happenings in the ancient civilizations of those times to give credibility to the history of Turkey Anatolia at the time this Biblical account was recorded to have happened, but based on my more than twenty (20) years of research, I would like to just open the door to perhaps, looking at the past from a scientific perspective to history and the Bible too. My timeline that I have constructed would also be based upon deep research and that revolves around the events that occurred during the time of the Roman Empire. In the past, I began the count and measure of time based on Adam’s Creation and I counted forward, but I was unable to make confirmations. But then, I counted backwards from the time of the Roman Empire, compared and contrasted secular scholarly historical events to the Biblical accounts and so now, my timelines are exact. I can understand the conflict of ‘the different Creation Theories’ due to this process of the measurement of time. However, there would be much more to add to this issue of how time has been measured with regards to other substantial ‘fixed points’ in the celestial realm. So then, for now, I think it would be interesting to regard the ancient civilizations and certain kinds of archeology and terminology to open the mind to perhaps another avenue of history. Furthermore, while the account of Noah will be presented, it would be pretty advantageous to also pay close attention to another very famous ancient man, a very famous Black skinned man of Africa [KEMET] who history dates to have lived at the very same time that the Bible has scripted that the very High Priest of the living God to have lived; and his name was IMHOTEP. This then would be my conclusions of my findings in that they are both one and the same man. So no, Noah would not have looked like the image made today of the heavily bearded Classical Greek image of Zeus and Asclepius that the western civilizations had depicted for Noah to have appeared. And in respect to the true history of that time period, the question posed should be this; IF NOAH WAS TOLD TO CONSTRUCT A GIANT SHIP WHEN HE WAS 500 YEARS OLD, WHERE IN THE WORLD WOULD HE HAVE LIVED TO OBTAIN THAT KIND OF SKILL BUT AFRICA; EGYPT, IN THE VERY AREA WHERE IMHOTEP DID LIVE AND BECOME RENOWN FOR BEING A MASTER ARCHITECT, MASTER CARVER, MASTER SCUPTOR AND ETC.!?
The Great Steppe Pyramid was said to be completed in 2667 BC during the Third Dynasty by
the High Priest of Djoser, named IMHOTEP, of which, based on my research would be the
one and the same NOAH. At this time, the Bible timelines show that Noah would have been
around 300 years old.
A Statue of IMHOTEP
Imhotep carving
Old Imhotep
This would be the reason why, even though Imhotep constructed the tomb for Djoser, his tomb has never been found! Imhotep did not die at that time but he lived on to construct the great ark and he lived on for hundreds of years more before he died. And so, the construction of the Great Steppe Pyramid and many other skills Noah would have acquired therefore, he would have learned in ancient Egypt and this then, would have been his training ground long before he ended up in Turkey Anatolia surrounded by woods and trees. Noah would have learned how to work with wood in Egypt too, but the Egyptians acquired their logs from the Levant and the wood was traded and put on barges and floated down the river. And even though today, this information has been deliberately kept hidden, many Black African people still today use the salutation ‘HOTEP’ meaning I would suppose, ‘PEACE’, or ‘MAY YOU HAVE COMFORT’. Additionally, even though Imhotep has been defined as being ‘a commoner’ elevated under Djoser, however, it would be a newfound truth from a Biblical perspective that well, it would be the very Imhotep that this entire universe came from as a result of the Great World Flood! So he would, in essence, be much more important than Djoser of whom he had lived under and served for many years. Imhotep was A THEBAN PRIEST and he would have been born in and around Memphis in captivity. He was born during a time when mound building just began around the millennium. Although secular accounts of the birthdate of Imhotep greatly varies, however, the Bible timelines date his birth to be during the 2900s BC. However, due to the strange new phenomena that began to become more and more common, that is the phenomenon of DEATH, due to AGING, around the millennium, many great and renown men and women began to die off of whom had been born around the early times of the 4000s BC and obviously due to the belief of ‘life after death themes’ that began, therefore, people were having a hard time dealing with this strange phenomenon of death on a wide scale. So this DEATH THEME therefore, marks a new movement of mound building, tomb building and massive graves during the Pre-dynastic times where servants were killed and entombed along with the masters that they were made to serve. This horror of mass tomb constructions and mound building too, led to the South world, the Seth world, to become extremely oppressed and so soon after, during this THINITE PERIOD, a great new leader rose up from the south in Egypt named Narmer.
Noah would not have known Adam, for he was dead more than a hundred years before this time period of the great oppression of the Seth world, the Thebans. And Noah would not have known the black skinned Cainite man, Narmer-the-Unifier, the eastern man, who fought against the Asiatics in North Egypt and caused the Thebans to gain freedom for a brief time period. Neither would Imhotep be dated to have known Narmer. But Noah’s father Lamech definitely knew Narmer based on the timelines, and would have likely participated in the war against the Asiatics. However, after the death of Narmer, secular history places the Thebans back under suppression again, and this would be the time that Noah would have been born. And the prophecy of Lamech hints at this time of captivity of the Seth world being bound to be ‘earth workers’ or mound builders to the point that some of them became well known for their skills. Lamech prophesized that his son Noah, would be a deliverer, and bring the Thebans peace:
And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son:
And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us
concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground
which the LORD hath cursed. GENESIS 5:28-9.
According to the Bible, Lamech and his father, Methuselah, went on to live for hundreds of years. According to the Bible timeline, Lamech would have died just four (4) years before the world flood and Methuselah would have technically, died one year before the flood. Back in those times, the New Year was during the springtime so Methuselah would have died before March or the Leap Month of April of that next year. The flood was dated to have occurred during the 2300s BC, on April 17, and strangely so, this date, April 17, came to mark another phenomenon to occur thousands of years later. It marked the advent of the Star of Bethlehem and the birth of Jesus. Although I have not stressed other detail dates surrounding these events, though, my timelines are exact in respect to several events written about in ancient times. Following will be a very brief and general overview of my research about a certain aspect of the timelines that focuses around Biblical accounts as they relate to the account of Noah and the secular publications about ancient civilizations and archeological events and a concentration on ancient KEMET, Egypt and the civilizations around Turkey and Greater Babylon during these times.

THE ARCHEOLOGY OF NOAH
Introduction
I am getting ready to share some more of my research, and so I want to say this ahead of time that some of you who decide to read further may think that I have lost my mind. I am getting ready to flip the script and present a strange perspective on this ancient story that has brought in a lot of revenue in the entertainment world in their many movie productions. So I just want to prepare you too ahead of time. There is a lot of information though, that I have but for now, I will attempt to just make introductions to a renewed look at the past with respect to the secular scholarly script though about the same time period that this Biblical account was said to have occurred. Also too, I want to say that I grew up in the 1960s and the 70s and I came after the Civil Rights Movement and so, some of the terms that the Baby Boomers use to coin ancient times, was done away with by the time I became school age. So, when I share my take on some terms used today from that ‘Black Power’ days, some of you might not agree, and I am prepared for this too. For example, I have already seen these two terms used in this community, ‘HOTEP’ and ‘CAUCASIAN’ and well, I’m not sure of their complete meaning, but these terms were not common in my earlier surroundings. However, I think these terms are very important to understand though and plan to share my understandings, indeed within the context of this very research on The Archeology of Noah.

What it comes down to is a kind of 'deductive' reasoning; it is unlikely life started in the 'snow' or in hostile environments unfavorable, or unable to sustain human organisms and if it did humans could not strive; too long unless they were cannibalistic in nature;
yes, I do believe this too, about deductive reasoning, sifting through lies to try and get at the real truth. And yes, I believe that about cannibalism too.

yes, that is true. This planet is old and who knows what is up ahead for mankind for sure. Nevertheless, I am not the kind of person to just let this system continue to feed me lies and then want me to accept it as truth! There is a strange spirit in this world today that somehow sees a benefit in oppressing people for self gain. Why can't we seek a better quality of life without feeling the desire to crush other people and to deliberately support a system of lies? This is so crazy.
Thank you.

Like the myth that the Middle East is the cradle of western civilization
LOL! yes, that is a confusion.
They keep redrawing the maps even when it concerns early history. I think the term WEST ASIA meant one thing and included Iran,
then the term NEAR EAST was used to include MESOPOTAMIA and maybe Turkey, and now the term is THE MIDDLE EAST to
include Mesopotamia and etc. And then way back whenever, the term West Asia was Iran and I suppose Central Asia was
around the Aral Sea. Clearly, these terms reveal the presence and domination of Asiatics in 'the Middle East' LOL!
The East, Asia, Asiatics, the FAR EAST, the NEAR EAST, the ORIENT ... this whole world seems to be dominated by THE EAST. smh.

@TroyUh oh! LOL! Can I get in on this conversation?
Actually, uhm, I absolutely remember reading somewhere that the international leagues in the Western nations did change the maps around some point in 1947 when they recarved the maps for the Jews in Europe to go back to 'the Middle East' and, I vaguely do remember that, believe it or not, yes, MOROCCO was included in on their geographical definition of 'THE MIDDLE EAST'. I think it does have something to do with the Arabs, Islam, and the muslims. yes, I think @Pioneer1 maybe right here. I just remember when I read something along those lines, I was amazed that they were defining parts of North Africa, all the way west as 'the Middle East'.

@Kalexander2 Thank you!

According to the myth, when Japeth and his family moved down from the Caucasus mountains into Greece...him and many of his offspring were deified as Greek gods and heros.
I love it! This so wonderfully stated.
However, with respect to the 'giants' I don't believe that they were all 'this' or all 'that', or all negative or all positive.
That is the issue here, some statements are 'myth' and I believe that over the years, the sound proof to confirm history is a tool(s) that we can not use or do not possess to verify history as being totally true or not.

but I'm not going to ban people crossing every arbitrary line that someone has crossed.
@Troy I initially find it hard to believe that @Pioneer1 took it personal, but after a while of seeing other post, I do believe he did take it as a personal insult. So I understand. My attempt to 'step in cautiously' to be the 'peace makerr', helps sometimes to make things better for others... But since I did make statements, I will also say this;
I felt that for the purpose of the forum, and because it seemed to be ongoing, and going and going, it was a good idea for someone to help the two posters maybe have a truce and to maybe come up with a better approach to converse on topics without attacking each other. I have no idea why they have done this back and forth, and I just read I think, that Kalexander2 did say he may not really care for Pioneer1's input. IMO, that's okay, but for them both to attack each is also not good if they don't stop, LOL. I've been there, done that too. I can get caught up into a conversation, however, deep inside, I know I should stop, leave off, but sometimes find myself in a rat race... I try to defend myself from what I perceive, as an passive aggressive attack against my person and NOT what I say or believe, but me. And, I have a trigger and sometimes in conversation, with certain relatives like my older sister , I find myself all worked up in a defensive mode and can't figure out how I continue to get to that point, only that I keep going into the conversation and get no satisfaction all the while.
I still find it hard to believe that someone today, would take 'YO MAMA' jokes personally, but historically, this kind of conversation did tear down Black people and it is a great method to cause dissention. But, I didn't get that it was a personal insult coming from @Kalexander2 either. No, I don't weigh in on either of the two posters, in my opinion. I think the insults were pretty even between the both of them. I kind of felt like it was just that perhaps, some kind of dissention started back at some point and they may have needed a little nudge to bring the purpose of this forum back into thier focus.
On 6/28/2018 at 5:25 PM, Delano said:his topic is a brilliant display of subjectivity and the state of Black America.
Various posters have commented on what is wrong or needs fixing in the Black community. Maybe we have to learn to respect each other , how to critque an argument without, insulting the perlson, or really listen and try to understand the perspective and the person.
Ahhh! This is exactly my feelings, just couldn't word so well! Thank you!

On some level I believe that posters goal was to create utter havok. She left when it became obvious that I would allow her to go completely off the rails.
Yes, this is the real point here, even if the posters are not aiming to create havok, after awhile, I feel that it will undercut the wider purpose of a discussion board designed to uplift 'the Black Voice', and a positive outcome for Black people in general. And also, after awhile too, it may become obvious that some one may feel personally attacked, and when this seems to be the issue, I think a moderator, a peacemaker, may help bring the discussion back into focus. Unfortunately, we as human do show this 'going off the rail' behavior, and find it difficult to find a common ground. Sometimes, It's not easy to agree to disagree without personally attacking someone.
But if someone is constantly undermining Black people of African descent, and there is a pattern, well, that is wrong.

s my understanding that the Arabs in Africa were descended from the Arabs of Asian nations like Iraq, Syria, Saudi, ect...who invaded and occupied Africa centuries ago.
@Pioneer1 But here is the issue that I see though; The Western Civilization and I suppose other nations too, keep changing the names and the maps with regards to the origins of certain people in ancient times. Iraq, Syria, Saudi, had people living in these areas that had other descriptive names that place them with 'other origins' that places them in Africa too, before they migrated east. For example, in the land of ancient Iran, Persia, lived the people of AI; and from my research, this name connects to a very early people during the Copper Age, that dominated 'the MIddle East' [ie. Jerusalem] and that came from MADAI-JAPHETH. From this civilization came people and civilization like;
THE MENES, the ARMENIANS, the MEDES, MEDO-PERSIA, the ACHAEMENIDS, ... and some of these people were concentrated in THE WEST initially. Nevertheless, they are still defined as ORIENTAL, but not necessarily ASIAN. Some the early people, from my research shows that they were, as you said, BLACK. They interacted with the ancestors of the Khurds and Greater Babylon and etc.

@ChevdoveWhat do you think of those who have charged and backed up that most of "Roots" was made up by Alex Haley, who later in his life admitted that he just wanted to write a book that would provide blacks with their own version of myth and lore? Yes, there are griotes but he didn't acquire any personal history from one.
I did hear about that!
I also read over some of the following quotes here in this thread too. It's been awhile, years, since I read his book, and his other books as well. I did do some research on how his book Roots, came together, his being in the Coast Guard and using this as an opportunity, his travels to Africa... I thought that was for real. You mean to tell me, he didn't go to Africa!?
My conclusion after I researched the making of his book was that I was still in great admiration for his work. I actually did separate research in libraries on the facts about Kunta Kinte and some of the other people that surround the real facts. AGain, I can't remember all the details, but, I believe that ALex Haley did write a lot of facts into his book.
I kind of remember that Kunta Kinte's daughter, Kizzie's mother, BELLE, was in reality somewhat different that the actress that portrayed her in film. The real true Belle, was sold off from the slave plantation after Kizzie was sold. That hurts me so deeply. And, Chicken George met a terrible death, he fell over in the fireplace and was burned to death....
At this point, I don't believe tht the supossedly, 'Creative liscense' that he was said to use was that detrimental against the bigger issue.

This is very interesting research. I have not heard of The African warrior Queen Nyabinghi.
I too, have done research on the wife of Noah, and the wives of the patriarchs as well, and the name of Judith, and the idol Sekhmet, the lioness idol.
But my findings doesn't view them in the positive though.
However, you research about the positive aspect, it is refreshing!
The information about the conflict in Uganda and the Germans is amazing.

HAPPY...Conjuring up African Good Vibes...
...Maybe... or Spirits Unknown...
WHEW! Mel Hopkins,
I just googled and checked out your book! Yites! Scary!
I'm a PG kind of movie goer, but then, I love those kinds of stories!
Gracious PEace!.
You've probably heard this youtube, I'm always late on things, but this is one of my all time favorite renditions of Pharrell Williams HAPPY PROJECT:
THE DANCE GROUP from Africa, Cote D'Ivoire.
Man! They made me feel like they conjured up spirits!!! It's hypnotic!
Your book seems like the Agatha Christie kind of mystery but African style.
I love Angela Lansbury shows. lol. especially the ones that she did on THE BIG EASY and
the VOODOO mystery. My relatives are from that kind of stuff! LOL!
This reminds me of a time my cousins put a voodoo doll in my Aunt's mailbox, ... she had a fit... they got a whoopin tht day
because in South carolina, that stuff is for real! Chicken feet in a pot and all...

@Chevdove No she's not my daughter! My youngest daughter sent me this story - sorry for the confusion. I wanted to share with you their perspective of the people they admire.
But I'm glad I included the video of "the only" black woman trader in the last post.
My daughters are usually "the only one" too - I was the only one too - and you mentioned you too were the only one... It is a difficult path but at the same time you find out who you are by what you choose to tradeoff.I used to tell my News coworkers " I don't have a phD in negrology (and I got that from quote from the film director Melvin Van Peebles) but being the only black female news anchor /reporter allowed me to give voice to a perspective that only I could share with the millions of viewers. When you are the only one YOU MUST remember your goals that brought you there in the first place.
Journalist extraordinaire Malcolm Gladwell just did a podcast (Revisionist History) on "the only one" Sammy Davis Jr...and the part of his humanity he had to give up to be the only one. I tell you I was crying like a baby at the end of the podcast.
Could be. My daughters date but their focus is on career and social life. AND they travel a lot. My middle daughter has a dual degree in psychology and statistics so she is preparing to go to grad school. The oldest is advancing in her legal career and it takes up a lot of her time. The youngest is focused on building a business (she hasn't said what yet ) lol and she has a steady beau.
I don't think they get that from me - though. I tend to be in love with love and in the absence of a "GOAL MATE" , I'm immersed in my profession."
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN??? (Ok I'm just being nosey) but it reads like The Loving V. Virginia Supreme Court Case
@Chevdove nah, I don't think I do. You got this.
I'm a journalist... I read a lot and my copyeditors/factcheckers keep me honest about providing source documents for what I think I know and write. lolOh no! I don't! LOL. I am shooting in the dark! LOL. I grew up in the Black Church, and I am very frustrated with the omission of a lot of information. How can you believe in something, based on a book, but you only read a part of the book!?
Anyway, your icon is gorgeous and you look like a news reporter! Awesome!!!
LOL yes, I read about the the Loving story and my rebuke is not on that level because my husband is Black. But it is rough though. This world is filled with 'isms' ... when it comes to a Black woman choosing to be in a relationship.

@Mel Hopkins Okay so here we go!
You know I fell pretty dumb, not to know this about the mitochondria in regards to it being classified as 'a chromosome' so help me out here!
This is a brief web search on it:
Mitochondrial DNA is the small circular chromosome found inside mitochondria.
These organelles found in cells have often been called the powerhouse of the cell.
[1] The mitochondria, and thus mitochondrial DNA, are passed only from mother
to offspring through the egg cell.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_DNA
So now, I'm thinking, ... What was I thinking!? I have to refresh myself, because my thesis is based on a good comparison and contrast between the mtDNA and
the Y-DNA HAPLOGROUP that has been published today. YOu see, I have a big problem with what I have been reading. I believe that, in the Science Scholarly
community, there is a big concerted effort to conceal some of their findings and as a result, some of what they report is misleading to say the least, but I'm still
researching and have not made a conclusion on this thought for sure. To take my opinions further, So at this stage, I am gathering info, and forming some questions about their reports. Ultimately and based on what I see so far, I believe that this big government is hiding information based on a racial reasoning. That is what I believe. So let me post some of their statements, a little, for now and pose some questions I have about this research:
In general, traits that exist on the Y chromosome are Y-linked because they only occur on that
chromosome and do not change in recombination.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome
GENETIC RECOMBINATION
Genetic recombination is the production of offspring with combinations of traits that
differ from those found in either parent. The shuffling of genes brought about by
genetic recombination produces increased genetic variation.
… In mammals, females most often have higher rates of recombination
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_recombination
[1] So, this was what i vaguely remembered in my notes, but I was not sure how to phrase it. The mtDNA is very stable, so stable that it does not RECOMBINE in the process of reproduction for a very, very long time. And the same for the Y-DNA, but I feel that the scholars don't make it clear the other aspect in the term they use; RECOMBINATION.
When it comes to RECOMBINING with the pairing and the Y-DNA chromosome strand during reproduction, the X-chromosome offers a lot of variation as opposed to the Y-DNA.
The Y-DNA only offers a small portion on the tip of the Y-chromosome sex gene, in the psuedo[?] region. For this reason, the human race is so varied.
Then there is the inheritance that comes from the AUTOSOMAL CHROMOSOMES too.
But, in my observation, the scientific community is very vague about the Y-DNA Sex chromosome because they don't want to shed light on the African male origin of all mankind living today.
I have found that the Haplogroups that they list today, is very, very vague. And they change groups, and sub-clades, to a point, where am questioning as to why?
The Y-DNA is very stable. And the process that determins the BASAL aspect is stable, so why do they not make this clear?
[2] [a] At one point they say, the basal portion was listed by a certain description [can't remember off hand];
then they assigned it to be BASAL A and said it was a great portion of African men
[c] then they assigned the E1b groups to much of African men
[c] then they assiged the BT group and changed their story about that
[d] now they say they have found a new group A00 in a man in america named Albert and sometimes they say that he was a slave...
And the process in determining the mutation MARKS for these grups leads to subclades and such, but
I have found one of many vague points, they have left out as well as the contradictions about the basal A, and E1b groups;
they don't usually clarify that the HAPLOGROUP F is the beginning BRANCH for all of the reast of the HAPLOGROUPS!!! --
G,H,I,J,K,L,... and then the other branches off of thse groups. They don't share this much. And, this is some of the reason why I believe they are not publishing
the whole truth about the Y-DNA. Ultimately, I believe this is because they in no way want to make any correlation to the BIBLICAL ADAM and THE GREAT WORLD FLOOD which would be A BOTTLENECK affect.
[3] and then there is another major issue that also comes into play in these findings... THE NEANDERTHAL Y-DNA of which to date, scientist don't really shout it out, but no y-dna has been found yet. Their methods of determining the HAPLOGROUPS for the earlier hominids is based on comparison and contrast using the PRIMATES such as the Gorilla and chimpanzee. And they use the mtDNA as well to determinen gene patterns to reports their findings on the male presence of the NEANDERTHALS.
They know they were here and that they were males, in part!--because of reproduction and other proof.
anyway, I have more questions to pose, later.

@ChevdoveI was 17 years old when my father died. I don't know what it is but black women back then modeled those in British monarchy - Those women seem to believe emotional outburst in public is unbecoming.
Do you remember how Jacqueline Kennedy, Coretta Scott King, and I think even Ethel Kennedy carried themselves at their husbands' funeral? When I look back on those archives , it appears as some unwritten rule of conduct.
I wrote about it in my debut novel "sleeping with a d-man", I wrote it for my oldest daughter before she left for college. In fact, my occult novel explores the role of women of African descent from times immemorial to the present. That's why I have all that research on mtDNA. (full disclosure - I needed to research it for my book) I wanted my daughters to understand how society relates to black women... which is counter-intuitive to our role as mother of all civilization.
I was a "star" to my father so he balanced my mother. When he was gone my heart broke. He was the symbol of the "savior" I spoke about earlier in this thread.
Black men and men in general play a huge part in parenting and cohabitation. The father supports the mother while the mother nurtures the children. The father is the physical strength in the family - and it's displayed in imagery as when you see the father help the son or daughter put a star on the christmas tree. It is such a beautiful symbiotic relationship.
When the father is absent (emotionally, physically, financially et al) the mother has no emotional support. It is quite rare to see a mother display the balance necessary to raise an emotional healthy child. For example, An imbalance of Hypermasculinity and Hyperfeminity come to mind - such as when a woman allows her children to be sexually assaulted while she pretends not to see.But I digress.
I was lucky because I had a huge support system for my oldest daughter (I didn't marry her father) and I was married before the twins came along ) Still I had a huge support system with my girls.
Today, my oldest daughter has a Juris doctorate now and she's not married. In fact none of my girls are married . They seem to have wonderful social lives balanced with their professions. In fact, my youngest just sent me an instagram of the only female trader on the New York Stock Exchange she's a young black woman, shown here -https://www.cnbc.com/video/2018/06/13/lauren-simmons-is-the-only-full-time-female-trader-at-the-nyse.html
I adore my daughters and I think they like me too (smile) They are loving and caring - So that could be due to their upbringing. my ex- husband believes I should write a book on how I raised, in his words "Three Aces" but the book is already written because I knew it would take a village to raise healthy adults; so I created one
WOW now that is amazing! I am so far from where you are in life! You have no idea!
Your daughter is absolutely incredibly beautiful.
So I assume you have the twins and an older daughter; that's amazing. I don't know how you did it.
I'm still on a long, long road stretched out ahead of me! My sons are older, yes, but it is crazy difficult...
I don't know why!? They are frustrated sometimes... they complain sometimes and say, "Mom, I'm the ONY ONE, THE ONLY BLACK MALE..."
I don't know what to say, how to help them.
YOu say, your daughters are presently single, are you single now? IF so, do you think they shy away from heterosexual relationships because of
how they view your relationships?
For me, I've been married for years and it's been a saga, not becsuse of my relationship to husband, but because it seems most people are in a rage over the
reality of us being married. We are loathed, but not by my father's people. We get wonderful support from them but they are far away. My father-in-law adored us,
And, I guarantee you that you probably know more than me about mtDNA!--LOL even though it was a big chunk of my major. However, my approach on this subject is based on another angle than your book. However, I welcome your criticism and help for what I would like to share!--since you've already written your book. How exciting!
Believe it or not, I am researching with hopes of publish a book one day too, but I'm no where close to that point!
I would love to get your book!

I love your story of your ancestors.
I wish I knew my ancestral lineage as well.
Perhaps one day I will.
Back in Africa, most nations had "griots" who were able to recall their ancestral lineage back for dozens if not HUNDREDS of generations.
Now you end up going to "ancestry.com" and hope they get it right....lol
I think it is indeed possible for you to be be both White (or African, or Asian) AND a Jew at the same time because "Jewish" is both a religion and an ethnicity.
A person could be a Jew because they come from a mother who was Jewish and practiced a the Jewish culture while at the same time not practicing Judaism as a religion and even be atheist.
But now when we start talking about ISRAELITES and HEBREWS....that's a different story.
These are actual biological lineages that depend more on ancestry than culture.Thank you very much!
My advantage, I have come to realize is that my ancestor, she came very late towards the abolishment of the actual law. I still can't believe myself though, that my aunt who knew is still very alive today! And she is still of her full mind and a young girl and knew the slave girl, her own grandmother, for a few years before she died.
You know, I read Roots, by Alex Haley four times!-- And it still grips me when he wrote his account of the Griot that gave the oral story of his ancestor. I met ALex Haley and he signed my program.
What do you think of the ongoing battle between Pionner1 and Kalexander2
