i am a free spirit. and technology is not culture. its just that, technology. culture is paying dowry to marry or running around with cutlasses and skulls or in the case of yorubas, eyo festival and prostrating on the floor to greet people etc wink
Technology in Nigeria is from the Western world,it's from a Western mind,initiative,civilization and culture. They go together. Is English language also technology?
So hitting your head on the ground for allah is not a culture and religion from the middle east? Maybe cos Eyo festival is not practiced by whites. Technology did not fall from the sky,it started with people's attempt at producing what is necessary to survive in their environment. So phone,fridge,air conditioner, suits, etc is a Western culture. Even the Eyo mask and Ohafia warriors,prostrating on the floor has its equivalents all over the world.
Free being my foot!

God is the one who created technology. he just gives it to people to use. technology is from Gods mind not mans mind. trust me, i know this. people think the bible is a book of mythology. it is a book of alchemy and astronomy and astrotheology. so do not assign technology to man. before the white man got all that technology, black people had it first. go and read about ancient egypt. they were building pyramids and had all kinds of high science. but empires devolve and people creep back into darkness and history gets re-written and the LORD endows another empire with all the tools to rule the world. the world goes through cycles. there is the dark ages and the enlightened ages. right now we are creeping into the enlightened age. scripture says knowledge shall increase

They were building pyramids. Your yoruba people were building pyramids? You are a confused soul. You are a free being but now relying on God's holy bible to cover up your ignorance?
As far as i know the old testament is about the lifestyle,culture of a group of people and their relationship with God. Why use the bible to cover up? Free being indeed!
Listen,technology doesn't exist in a vaccum. It takes discipline and years to build something.

well yes yoruba people were building pyramids in ancient egypt. many of the ancient egyptians are the yorubas of today. and yes i am very ignorant without the wisdom endowed on me from the merciful and benevolent YAH, i operate under the auspices and tutelage of YAH without which I am an ignorant ignoramus, and technology is from God not from man. man is a vessel being used by God.

Now you are talking trash! Free beings don't rely on any historical or religious books, quit referencing the bible and talk for yourself!
Did you not see Israeli and Egyptians cultures/festivals including dowry in the scriptures.
Why do you value other culture than your own? I see why tribalism strongly appeals to you.
You are one of those fooli-sh beings that will castigate Amadioha and Sango but embrace Thor without considering the fact that they are the same thing.
Those people that will snub the words of their elders but will readily accept anything Obama says.
Don't bring in the Bible here,cos it's about different cultures too.:p
If you are vessel,you should be building technology in Nigeria. I doubt God uses Staunch Tribalist anywhere.

Which ancient yoruba people were Egyptians lmao? Last time i checked, both Yoruba,Fulani,Ewe, Akan,Fante,Nupe, Igbo are more related in every ramification.:p
Last time i also checked, ancient egyptian language is an afroasiatic language. :/:x:p

Am waiting for you to say that the Bible is not based on the lifestyle/culture of a group of people. Or that the builders of the great pyramids did not operate under a culture. No human civilization exist without culture.
You shouldn't be referencing them,try again!

the bible is not a religious book. thats the lie you have been told. it is a book of many hidden secrets. it is a spiritual book. deep secrets are hidden in that text. and the bible is not a cultural book either. what you perceive to be culture are esotreric and allegorical presentations based on how the prophets know humans will be living today, but rest assured it is a spiritual book and not a carnal book about the exploits of a people. it is a powerful text. full of hidden manna. and amadioha and sango and thor are just names given to specific powers of God. amadioha is lightening. sango is iron. thor is judgement aka the hammer. its like zoning in on the different powers and not the entire range of Gods power. and with regards to building technology in nigeria, black people are still under punishment. but our time to shine will come, so in the meantime we try not to despise the day of small beginnings

the bible is not really a cultural book. there is no cultural musings in the text, and all those people in it are not who they really are. adam is not a human being and neither is abraham or sarah. they represent nations of people. the bible tells you these are symbolic stories. you have to know how to read the txt.


galatians 22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.

23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.

24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.

25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
<< BIBLE TELLS YOU ABRHAM DOES NOT EXIST. THE STORY IS ALLEGORY. I SUGGEST YOU CHECK YOUR DICTIONARY FOR THE MEANING OF ALLEGORY

First of all,you mentioned that your free being has nothing to do with the Bible. Why are you now messing up yourself by talking about the bible.

Don't you realise that both the Bible,Tamud, Quran covers the middle eastern life and culture to an extent the bible of the present European countries? Why do you think People say Igbo/yoruba come from israel? The law and cultures of the middle east is the major preoccupation of the old testament bible.
