pls, read carefully what i wrote down, i never said roman empire started in 30bc, i wrote that the roman empire took control of egypt in 30BC.

The Late Period of Ancient Egyptian history came to an end in 332 BC when Egypt was conquered by the Greeks. The Greeks formed their own dynasty called the Ptolemaic Dynasty that ruled for nearly 300 years until 30 BC. In 30 BC the Romans took control of Egypt. The Romans ruled for over 600 years until around 640 AD.
So, what is your point here? Is it that the Greek and or the Roman Empire existed in 3150bc or what?

sexylassie2:
confusion of the highest order.

Lets take an example from the ancinet Egyptian empire which you mentioned and posted its existence from 3150 bc to 30BC

Roman empire in Rome ended the Egyptian empire in 30bc

This alone is a proof that when ancient Egyptian empire was alive in africa, roman empire was also alive in rome.
So, sexy, according to you, an empire in existence from 3150bc is as old as one that began in 30bc?

Could you kindly tell me if a person born in 3150bc is the same age as one born in 30bc, and could you include the age of both if they had continued existing till today please?

You might want to refer to this and this before responding.

so, I'm back from my malaria break. men, i felt like i was gonna die. Malaria never hit me that hard before.
unfortunately, I've missed two sunday reads for one legitimate reason and the other- i don't want to remember self.

Its good to be back and alive, life they say is vanity. i always laugh at that statement, wait till you're on a sick bed, you'd see how not-vanity life is.

Hope we are all faring well.
Glad you recovered. I've been rather occupied too, though nothing serious like you.

My Question is

Why should I live?
Why shouldn't I kill myself?
Why is it a taboo to kill ?

Why live through life ?
Why reproduce?
Why worship a god I don't know?
What I'd like to know is why the heck are you asking us whether you should reproduce or live or die? Are we your god or something, or is your life ours so we get to tell you what to do with it?

Dude, it is not a taboo to kill yourself and you do not need to live if you do not want to live. People die daily and the living go on with their living without the world stopping. So be responsible for yourself and do with your life as pleases you instead of making out we are your God you should live for or worship. If you do decide to stop living, hopefully, those who love you will bat their eyelids, and if you get someone to thread you're dead on here, we will Rip you and move on, do note.

ThothHermes:
Flat-earthers know their stuff.
The evidence for a globular earth is not incontrovertible. Our faculties tell us the earth is flat.
The burden of proof rests on the ball-earthers.
Thoth is the Egyptian god of writing, magic, wisdom, and the moon.

Hermes was the ancient Greek god of trade, wealth, luck, fertility, animal husbandry, sleep, language, thieves, and travel. One of the cleverest and most mischievous of the Olympian gods, he was the patron of shepherds, invented the lyre and was, above all, the herald and messenger of Mt. Olympus so that he came to symbolise the crossing of boundaries in his role as a guide between the two realms of gods and humanity.

I said enough for you to go find out and discover for yourself that there was quite a lot of civilisation long before Moses. Like 2000 years of it, at least, though that's not what you learn in your Judeo-Christian education despite hints in the Holy Book to that effect.

I trust you, sexy. You would never willingly shut your eyes to facts despite that being what a lot of folks on the right do as far as trump is concerned. Unlike them, you'd be mindful of sprouting what you'd later find out was ill-informed ignorance. I hope. You might want to start by finding out dates for all those Kingdoms you mentioned, and if you are seriously interested in increasing knowledge, consider starting a thread to that effect and mentioning me so we can discuss your findings.

Well i was thinking, you were going to write something that made sense but just showed a verse with Egypt in it.


Even joseph from an abrahamic religion had to show Egyptians how to save grains.

Next time instead of showing a verse, prove something.

The Egyptian empire didn't influence western thoughts, Egypt was in africa.

When Egypt civilization was around, there was other competing civilizations, the persians (western asia) the nubians (kingdom of kush) the assyrian empire(near-east) and also the roman empire(Europe)

Infact the Egyptian empire was conquered by the roman empire was under the roman rule.

The Roman province of Egypt was established in 30 BC after Octavian defeated his rival Mark Antony, deposed Pharaoh Cleopatra, and annexed the Ptolemaic Kingdom to the Roman Empire.

Those who believe and receive eternal life are born of the same Word? He was called God; so was Moses (Exodus 7:1) and so are we (Psalm 82:6). Should we now worship one another instead of the Most High?

If he is irrelevant as a man, how then does his life become an atonement for the sins of his people YISOLELE (Israel)?

You don't know what my focus is so goan sit down somewia and worship your idols.
What eternal life? Do you even know what is meant, I wonder?

It's Jesus' teachings that are very relevant. Once you understand what he teaches you'd likely know what sin is and it's consequence and desist from sinning.

As to worshipping idols, perhaps go read how jealous God is written to be then ask yourself where you are told to worship Jesus instead of simply learning from him and evolving.

Let me tell your something, all concept of business, all concept of charity giving, all concept of trust, all concept of the legal system of education, the rule of law, property rights in the western society today all got the idea from the bible.
I bet your world is like 4000 years old give or take a few hundred, because you have no idea, it seems, of the world before the Bible, which, incidentally, came out of Egypt, as the Bible itself informs you.

Long before the Roman Empire were the Greek States which is very much part of todays Western Society, though they of course don't teach you this in your public schools least your eyes open from its ignorance and you stop being exploited.

buda is neither a Christian nor a believer but an understander, and you clearly do misunderstand. But I have faith in you that with more effort you will understand. Jesus, for instance, is irrelevant as a man so his race or colour is irrelevant. John describes him as the Logos, and there is a meaning to him being called God.

You will forgive me eplanning, but so long as your focus is on the man's race and skin colour you miss the moon.

So what is the long post about OP not believing what he reads or misunderstanding what he reads... Do you know me before?

How can a man who historically and even in the scriptures, was known to be a black man now be portrayed as white throughout Africa if not through witchcraft?

I believe the scriptures but unfortunately you Christians have been bewitched and you're still being manipulated by witches using the same bible.

Witchcraft is manipulation. That is what they have used on our people.

And please stop talking NONSENSE. Even the art of writing was taught your white masters by black people. We already had schools when the whites in Europe didn't know how the take their bath, talkless of write.

Maybe you want me to show you the caves where they came out from to attack our people.
One should learn to read first then one might understand. Reading alone would have made you notice my "writing was not invented by white people".

Here's some education on the development of writing.

Trump has had farrr more gaffes than Biden. There is hardly any politician who doesn't have gaffes, even an eloquent man like Obama also had his fair share of gaffes.

Politicians are always in the business of speaking, they constantly make speeches hence the high propensity to make mistakes every once in a while.

Why everyone now seems to focus on Biden's gaffe is because all the republicans have made it their sole attacking point on Biden, they can't find any personally incriminating scandal on Joe Biden the more so they focus their laser-like attacks on his mental health and it has managed to stick.

Every single time Biden speaks, everyone is simply waiting to see if he commits an error or stumbles and on the rare occasions he does, the error is amplified to make their case stick.

Any right thinking person can look beyond all these political shenanigans and see that there is nothing wrong with Biden.
I'd take a million Biden gaffes over trumps lies everyday in a month of Sundays.

You are free from whiteman's witchcraft.
What you call "whiteman's witchcraft" is actually just a book, as in, the ability to record words so they survive longer than if just spoken, and as we all know, writing was not invented by white people so it isn't exactly "whiteman's witchcraft" as you mention, nor are you free from it or you would not be writing words here. Op, though, misunderstands what he reads, as do some here who think words are meant to be believed instead of to inform so you ponder and reason and think and learn and be cured of ignorance and evolve.

Good thing is he and many here merely believe what they read as opposed to actually living by what they believe or you'd not be here using that so called "whiteman's witchcraft" as intended. In future, you'd even write books, I bet, in contradiction of those beliefs.

If you live by bread alone, as in the most simplistic understanding of what you read, you will become malnourished, as in you will not be saved from stupidity and ignorance, and the reward is death, as in suffering here on earth instead of being saved from ignorance through learning.

Jesus central message is that you should learn to love one another instead of ignorantly tearing one another apart. He championed reading and promoted understanding so you wouldn't be preyed upon with ignorant ideas and beliefs of the sort the op accuses Christians of ignorantly holding on to.

I'd advise that the op learn his Christianity from the Book instead of relying on the practise of the ill-informed who focus on the finger instead of the moon.

yes the earth is stationary and thats evodenced in the fact that you feel no movement and also air flight from west to east would have been impossible because the earth is moving faster than the speed of an average commercial aircraft. Also if the earth was moving, then helicopters would just hover around in the air till their destination come right under them.


2. So how does the moon and Sun move over it?? the sun and the moon are of the same size and they are small and closer to the earth in total contrast of what you have been told. The earth is a vast plane so the light of the sun only covers one portion of the earth surface as it moves over it causing the day and night, the seasons and the tides.
The sun and the moon are opposite each other and they move clock wise around the face of the earth carrying their light with them.
And when the sun and the moon have worked their way to one end of the earth, they automatically reset and start at the other end, again.

That's why there is nighttime. So the reset is done while you sleep and can't see it happen.
