Another Church Father Speaks by No2Atheism(m): 12:58am On Jul 26, 2009
@Lady

I noticed that you so much choose to put ur faith in the catholic church fathers rather than wat the bible actually says. Below is an except of what one or many of the so called church fathers or early philosophers are reported to have said:

“Fallen angels taught men the use of magical incantations that would force demons to obey man. After the flood Ham the son of Noah unhappily discovered this and taught it to his sons. This became ingrained into the Egyptians, Persians, and Babylonians. Ham died shortly after the fall of the Tower of Babel. Nimrod, called Ninus by the Greeks, was handed this knowledge and by it caused men to go away from the worship of God and go into diverse and erratic superstitions and began to be governed by the signs in the stars and motions of the planets. Taken from Recognitions of Clement 4.26-29.” [2]


The questions from the above is that:

1. Does that statement have anything to do with foundations of racism
2. Is there proof for wat was said, considering that no one alive now was actually there during the time of Ham, Cush and Nimrod (who were all clearly black)
3. Is the above quoted statement true and how.


By the way please note that the authorship of recognition of clement is not something set in stone.
