Shortly after seeing the recent blackboster movie NOAH 2014 with my gf, we started a long argument on the said topic. She happen to b from Austrilian continent(formally Oceania). As blacks, they were thought in sch and church that all black nations are way behind whites nations becus accoding to d bible, NOAH had cursed his son HAM who refused to help him while he was drunk (Genesis 9:22-27).

According to the scripture, NOAH cursed HAM and said to him, 'your son Canan will be servents to your elder brother Sham and your younger brother Japheth'. my gf believe that Ham's decendants are the blacks and therefore a justification to their backwardness and undervelopment compared to Whites(Sham) and Asians(Japheth).Ofcus I disagree with her theory. So nairalander, what are u take on this??

how did she know that Ham is black? Dont be control by wrong lady of urs. Dont be gullible.

ajibolabd: how did she know that Ham is black? Dont be control by wrong lady of urs. Dont be gullible.

I clearly stated that I never agreed with her theory.I mean thats the whole reason for the argument.

ok, but......if its true then we must file an appeal against noah for cursing us.

This is the same Bible that the same Africans kill themselves over. The same Bible they read and "pray for Israel"
Chris Rock (the comedian) said that black people who are Christians have short memories.

I submit that u are no Christian right??But if u are, u must know that some whites were misinterpreting the bible so as to justify thier wickedness towards colored people during the slave trade.

Of course. They were "misinterpreting" it.
If I post the Islamic version, Muslims would say the same thing.
