Hey @Cynique thanks. Consider what you would have needed to do to get a tattoo 60 years ago. Today an 18 years girls can walk into any suburban mall and get a tattoo. Also when you were a teenager, in high school, how many of your girls friends had tattoos? Often we are manipulated in ways were don't see, perhaps in ways we don't want to see it. Today, I would still discourage a young person from getting tattoos on their face -- there are still some jobs you can't get while sporting visible tattoos. There are still enough people that would prejudge you, negatively, based upon having a face tattoo. When a popular rap artist has a face tattoo we have to appreciate it does influence the people who watch their videos. go to their concerts, and following them online.

@Pioneer1 these is no science to support this because there is only one race. Now it is possible you may find, or are using, information from a century ago. This was pseudoscience used to justify the subhuman hyper-sexualized Black male. A creature that white women had to be protected from and who it was perfectly acceptable to "breed" indiscriminately with other enslaved women. Again so called Black people are the most genetically diverse people on the planet. There are white people more genetically similar to Black people than other Black people. Again, if you believe in the "Myth" (forget that BS definition of a "myth" being something that is true that never happened) of race you'll come up with flawed conclusions. Of course there are cultures that practice polygamy, but this is cultural and as nothing to do with one's skin color (how you define "race").

Man @Delano this would be much easier if you stopped going off on tangents and answered simple questions. After pointing out that your conclusion from the article was baseless The article never even used the word "fact." You failed to acknowledge this point and proceed to find some other point to take issue with -- even going as far as to discount the importance of Darwin's observations regarding the theory of evolution -- a first as far as I'm aware. Then again you are the first to assert MLK and homosexual affairs, so anything is possible. What? So you dismiss the importance of Darwin's work because he was unaware of someone else's -- a contemporary no less? That would be like dismissing Newton's work because he was unaware of the relationship between space time. Even Mendel's work started with observations indeed most scientific theories do. Math is a tool brother Newton's laws was ultimately found be be incorrect because of observations. The math supported his theory until it didn't. Now we have new math to explain the force of gravity that works under more conditions. Ultimately even these formal will change to account for the quantum world... Again, you seem to be more concerned with finding me wrong. Indeed, the above statement is a testament to that. If it helps, you win. Facts are not based in bedrock, all science is based upon math, and I could not be more wrong about everything 😉

Del a response to this simple question does not require you following the entire thread. You were the one saying that you were "being supportive of @Chevdove." I'm saying that you were actually not being supportive of her because you are not being forthright with her. Indeed, I suggesting I'm being more supportive of her that by telling here how I feel and trying to understand her perspective. Arguing/! Del Chevdove and I are having an open and honest exchange. Unlike you I actually know what she believes -- why because she tells us. You instead dodge questions with superfluous quotes. You say that the Immaculate Conception is a "Myth that is both "true" but "never happened." Rather than explain what is true about it -- in your opinion -- you condescend and bore us by copying from the dictionary. Man tell use what YOU believe that is where the beauty lies.

@Delano if you spent more time justifying your responses rather than copying and pasting what I wrote, this conversation could advance. Because according to you the theory of evolution was not based upon Darwin's observations but "math" from a 2nd cousin -- another unsupported claim which you can not substantiate. Again I'm fine with that.

Of course the tatoo business is booming! It used to be done by drunken sailors and bikers, now suburban teenage whites girls are getting tattooed.

@Delano, ok so you are implying the immaculate conception never happened; what is true about it?

I hope you and your family had a great one!

So now you want ME to research some dude you brought up our of thin air? Dude, if make a point YOU have to explain it. If you don't want to, or can't, do it, that is fine, but don't expect me to. Look saying, "If you remove math and statistics you have very little science left in any field." is very different that saying, "What scientific theories don't involve mathematics?" You can construe almost anything to involve math. If that is you point, I'm not going to argue it. So if you want to say evolution was based upon math rather than observation, fine. I'm not going to debate, it we'll just agree to disagree 🙂

No. The clip was posted at least 4 times and on old and completely unrealeted posts. It was clearly a mistake either a bug or a mistake on your part. I NEVER delete posts just because I dont like what written. @Delano the answer is simple. Introducing mythology is subterfuge and clouds the issue. I was talking about women giving birth asexually and how Chevdove mixes science with religion. After all your copy and pasting you STILL have not said if you believe that virgins can give birth to boys. You refuse to be clear. @Delano Is the "myth" of the virgin birth of Christ true in your view true?

Merry Christmas!

I hear you @Cynique. In some circles the values are indeed carved in stone, however one could not divine this based upon behavior. Consider orthodox communities, evangelicals or even the NOI. Their rules are crystal clear. However don't try to judge this based code based upon any individual's behavior in that group. People are unique and will live by their own rules even risking great punishment. I'm basically saying what you're saying but moving the emphasis from the values and placing in solely on the individual.

OK @Delano please elucidate us on how Darwin's 1/2 cousin helped create Darwin's theory of evolution.

@Cynique again the "battling monologues" is a consequence of dodging questions...

These stories span thousands of years and cultures. The Jesus variation is a more recent one white folks produced. Has anyone read the epic Gilgamesh? Yes Horus and Heru predate Jesus -- Heru by thousands of years.

Sad but often true. This is true too and is a consequence of living in a society founded on the genocide of the indigenous peoples and the enslavement of Africans and the moral hypocrisy pure evil required to pull it off. It is not just Black people who are effected; all of us are effected. We don't really have any "vales" as a nation. Look at who we elected president. We lag all the developed nations in education. Our best and brightest minds work for Facebook and on wall street. We are increasingly becoming a morally vacuous country -- even white men are committing suicide in greater numbers than ever before. Human sexuality is a complex combination genetics and environment it always has been. If there is a greater incidence of homosexuality it probably is all the chemicals put in our environment and food that is the culprit, not some evil cabal white racists.

Who are "they?" Even if I knew who the "they" were, your idea seem preposterous to me. Don't get me wrong these young men present themselves in a very odd manner. I suspect homie with the face tats will one day want to removed them. Hopefully it will not be a problem for him. In any case, they are a product of a commercial environment and are pushing the envelope. Not my cup of tea fortunately I'm not expose to this stuff (outside of the forum).

Greeks used the name Horus for Jesus which was originally Heru from Kemet (Egypt). (If memory serves).

Del has a propensity for confusing lack of clarity with depth.

@Pioneer1 sure I won't dispute the notion that much what what Black people find worthy of attention or even praise worthy must be validated by white folks first. I get it. Theories like string theory, for example, are theories and there are Black physics that don't buy into it. You are unaware of these folks because you don't usually see them on TV or social media. I have not heard this where did you learn this? Have you considered that Russia is simply trying to undermine the US. There are people who do not believe we landed on the Moon and Russia apparently are taking advantage of this. I seriously doubt Russia would actually do what you say they are doing. I suspect you got this from the same place Del got the info on MLK's homosexual affairs.

Because a dialogue involves both parties answering questions the other asks or at least acknowledging that they will not answer the question before moving on. I'm sure it is not lost on you that you rarely answer my questions @Delano.

Just goes to show little dogs are useless. Literally all bark and no bite....

In 10 days you may send my money to me vua paypal, square, venmo or number of ways just don't send me no check

Oh no he didn't! I KNOW @Delano is not pressing me to answer a question LOL!

People craft God in their image, but every educated person knows Christianity came from Africa. The bible white Christians use was crafted to suit their needs.
