Why suppress your statement

What else can the highlighted in RED mean?

Please answer the question or withdraw your quote by restating exactly what you mean by the highlighted in red (its your word)

"A belief, though often devoid of knowledge/knowing, is not always devoid of Knowledge/Knowing."
Meaning exactly what you've stated above: give three examples of the exceptions!

budaatum:
No, shade. A belief, though often devoid of knowledge/knowing, is not always devoid of Knowledge/Knowing.

Very very often though, you believe because you haven't bothered to ask and knock and seek and eat of the fruit of knowledge to find out for yourself

Hence, science. The use of the heart and the soul and the mind and the being, to ask and knock and seek and research so one may actually know, more, so to speak..

DissTroy:
For the purpose of clarity, do explain this:

"Roy L. Brooks defined critical race theory in 1994 as "a collection of critical stances against the existing legal order from a race-based point of view".

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_race_theory (Check the "Definition" subheading.)

Not from any other point of view from a race-based point of view. It's the definitive prism CRT is viewed from - race.

DissTroy:
Budaatum, stop with the semantics. You should know better than that. The definition of CRT as stated and accepted by all means examining issues which concern the black person from a racial perspective. I even posted the screenshot.

ignis:
North Bandits and Kidnappers ?

DissTroy:
Really? But the textbook, singular definition of Critical Race Theory which is accepted by all states that everything must be viewed through a racial prism.

In your own words, Roy L. Brooks is very silly.

Thank you.

DissTroy:
Insisting that everything the black person faces, or deals with or has to do has to be viewed through a racial in decking the black person in an apparel of victimhood.

shadeyinka:
I was disappointed with your response because it clearly contradicts your position that there are some Believed Beliefs that is from knowledge.

shadeyinka:
Unfortunately you refuse to look at instances (I gave as examples) where Believed Believing are NOT devoid of knowledge. It seems ALL examples I can give will be met with the stance of "the believed believing is devoid of knowledge!"

shadeyinka:
Can you then according to your statement "A belief, though often devoid of knowledge/knowing, is not always devoid of Knowledge/Knowing." give three good suitable examples of the exceptions?

Wise Buda: Please oblige me just three suitable examples!

DissTroy:
Exactly! You are corroborating my assertion!

Why is why Critical Race Theory is premised on absurd exaggerations. It blames racism (institutional mostly) as the culprit to be hanged for the failings of the black person.
CRT postulates that as a black person you'd be prejudiced at every turned based solely on your skin colour when the reality lays to waste the validity or truism of that assertion.

DissTroy:
There's only one way to paraphrase Critical Race theory - Selective victimhood.
Wanting to view everything through the lens of racial prejudice predisposes impressionable black kids to always seeing a glass ceiling and not taking responsibility for their actions.

Sunday Igboho is a good example of a powerful foolish man. I have always known that it will not end well with him. I lost my respect for him the very day he insulted the whole Ooni of Ife.

FreeStuffsNG:
“We have strict laws here in Benin Republic. Those peope who helped him obtained a Beninese Passport misled him because they didn’t tell him the danger ahead being a fugitive.
Most of them causing problems within Nigeria have strong political affiliation with vicious state actors playing politics at the expense of lives of other people and our national security, they have more than one passport and they have homes outside Nigeria.

Thank God for his parents who gave him authentic Oyo tribal marks so that no other passport than the Nigerian passport will suit him.
Our neighbouring countries have been tremendously helpful to us to rein in these terrorist politicians causing problems for innocent Nigerians because of 2023 election. All the enemies of Nigeria will lose las las.They always lose. God bless Nigeria.

shadeyinka:
Your response is full of bigotry.

shadeyinka:
Okay:
Even though some believed beliefs are devoid of Knowledge/knowing, some believed beliefs are guided by Knowledge/knowing.

Examples of such:
1. An army general planned an assault on hill 732 against Taliban forces dug in a defensive position. a. Does he know the outcome of his assault or believe in the outcome?

shadeyinka:
2. The Nigeria Olympic 400m relay track and field coach has trained his athletes for the Tokyo games.
a. Does he know the outcome of his coaching or believe in the outcome?

shadeyinka:
3. A student prepared very hard for his JAMB exam.
a. Does he know the whether he will lead the exam or believe he would lead in the exam?

Blabbermouth:
Adam could have chosen not to eat, and he could have eaten. The only problem is - you are not permitted to do anything not within the confines or boundary of the will of God.

Always putting the blame on men,what do you expect,when most of you women loves dressing like harlots in the name of fashion...sugar attracts ants...

You

Roland17:
If you live in Nigeria and you are here debating American politics with venom irrespective of the side you support and you have not registered to vote or do not have your PVC then you are a bloody hypocrite who lacks the ethical or moral compass to engage in such conversations.

Please, redirect your energy to registering to vote in the forthcoming elections (local/State and Federal) in Nigeria. After you register please, take it a step further by encouraging your friends and community to register. Then on Election Day, go out and cast your vote and resist the temptation to sell your vote for a small packet of garri/sugar and groundnut.

Nigeria is no longer dying a slow death, it has become a fast death with no reprieve. Leave American politics alone! If anything use the American experience to educate your community that voting with your conscience is the only way to effect change.

Y'all know that I have a friend here that's anti trump and yet we are very close, like brothers. That's what liberty is, that's What liberal is and that's what conservative is.

shadeyinka:
You are being evasive to the question which in its simplest form, the answer is a YES or NO answer

Is a Belief always devoid of Knowledge/Knowing?

shadeyinka:
The Logos without any bias is just a historical information (it doesn't matter if one believes it or not).

shadeyinka:
Hmn!
The question has assumed that some believed beliefs are based on weak speculations devoid of facts such as a statement like "twins bring bad luck to the community" or "whistling at night attract ghosts to the whistler".

The question was:

Is a Belief always devoid of Knowledge/Knowing?

budaatum:
Any belief negatively affects knowledge, and a believe in what you do not understand, even moreso.

The issue is that you think both what you believe, and knowledge, are the same thing, which they are not. Just think. You can not believe your mother is your mother if you know who your mother is nor can you believe you have money in your bank account if you know there is money in your bank account.

I'm certain you are tempted to respond in the negative to the above but I recommend you think about it for a day or two to avoid responding how you have been programmed to believe.

You do not believe what you know, and if you believe then you really do not know.

benalvino3:
That's exactly why I said it's a stupid belief and theory.

I did not claim what you said I claimed, I am telling you what CRT teaches and why it's stupid

benalvino3:
given how many white leftists embrace, promote, and teach CRT in schools, the liberal in government pushing it through their schools which is part of the systemic structure put in place by white man/white supremacy.

benalvino3:
Critical Race Theory believes that white people won't do anything that might benefit black people unless it is in white people's best interest and helps them maintain power.

benalvino3:
In addition, all the things my white friends did for me including owen who I spent a week in his family house in Birmingham was not in their interest. They welcomed me in their house, gave me a bed and fed me. I fail to see how that's in their best interests instead of benefitting me.

benalvino3:
Critical Race Theory believes that white people won't do anything that might benefit black people unless it is in white people's best interest and helps them maintain power.

benalvino3:
Critical Race Theory believes that white people won't do anything that might benefit black people unless it is in white people's best interest and helps them maintain power.

Does this make sense?
I fail to see the logic in this. Maybe someone can explain it.
