KoloOyinbo: Thank you pslm23.

I will do so. Although I some of my Naija friends here in Belfast (we have a large Nigerian Community) have put me in touch with two people from her area (they all speak Etsako) and they are now helping out.
I like your style of trying to learn the culture and traditions of her people that's commendable

texanomaly: You sound like Obadiah here. lol

Maybe you need to explain the Bible to me then. I thought you didn't even believe the Bible to be true anyway. What do you believe? I thought you were an Atheist. You guys all start to blend together after a while. I can't keep it straight. Who's what?

Atheist
Deist
Satanist
Naturalist
Pantheist

ist, ist, ist...

Chai! right back at ya...
smh
I don't believe the Bible(OT) is anything other than Jewish thoughts and understanding, A history book and some moral instructions the rest is bullpoo.
I read the Bible when I do my research on ancient middle eastern spiritualities or just when am bored.

As for the New testament well that's a whole load of crap with Roman influenced agenda

I am simply Ekiti Yoruba, I pray to the Gods of my ancestors

lahchi: Question 1
Where was it said that tithing is a proof of Christians faithfulness to God?
Question 2
Where was it said that part of the old law was abolished and not the whole law?
Question 3
What is the purpose of the Old testament? (Bible reference please)
Another question
Is tithing an African obligation of is it part of the traditions of your tribe?

Christianity Etc › Re: Africans, We Need To Wake Up!! by macof(m): 7:47pm On Jan 09, 2014
The issue is that many Africans are too brainwashed into these foreign ideas that they even think their ancestors were no good cave men.

I recently read an article on the Portuguese trades with West African Empires and It stated a lot of good about our people right from the 16th century, The Portuguese compared the major cities to wat they had back home, They appreciated the level at which our people were organized and controlled the cities, The architecture was also greatly admired. But wat do you hear from Africans today? Wat do we even see in movies set at those period? We see bush men living around Forest with abominable buildings.

Wat impression do we give to our traditional priests? how much do Africans know their history? How much do they even believe their history?
Many dont give up on claiming Arab or Hebrew origin.

There's a big problem in Africa and if we don't fight this problem we are Doomed
We shouldn't encourage this foreign tools of mental slavery upon our people, We should fight them strategically and restrict their movements in our land.

If only there's constitutional empowerment and encouragement for those who are free from this Disease.
If only People in Power and those in high positions could show just a little patriotism, pride and love in our identity there would be less corruption, less terrorism.

Let our history be known
Let our traditions be known
Let our language be known
Show the Good and Original side of Africa
Christianity Etc › Re: Two Gods????????? by macof(m): 6:36pm On Jan 09, 2014
khattab02: Allah is hubal? subhanallah! Glory be to HIM, far above what they ascribe to HIM as partners. Allah is not hubal. Can you prove that from the Qur'an?

Moon symbol of Allah? Yes! No doubt it is one of many creations of Almighty God. Allah says in Qur'an 41:37 '' and among His signs are the night and the day, the sun and the Moon...''

Allah a head God? subhanallah '' Glory be to HIM, far above what they ascribe to HIM as partners.'' Allah is not an idol and not among the Idols. Bring your prove from the Qur'an.

alat is the daughter of Allah? Subhanallah '' lam yalid wa lam yulad'' He begets not, nor was He begotten. I think you are trying to refer to a verse is surah Najm? That is not what Allah said or mean.

''importance/significant of the moon'' not to arabs but Islam in general. There is a verse for the importance/significant of the moon, Allah says in Qur'an 2:189 '' they ask you about the new moons. Say: these are signs to mark fixed periods of time for Mankind and for the pilgrimage.'' similar message is repeated in Surah Yunus. No muslim worship or bow to the Moon.
Such a pity that you do not know anything about pre-Islam Arabia.
Allah has always been the head of the pantheon which Mohammed's family was devoted to, even his father's name was "Abdullah" and everyone knows that Allat means 'the goddess' she is personified as daughter of Allah.

You keep asking for Quran verse as if Allah worship started with Quran lmao grin you better open your eyes to the deception of the Quran. Even all the claims that it made about Hebrews being Allah devotes is flawed, there's nothing to denote that Yahweh and Allah are the same.

So tell me who hubal is if isn't Allah and why the Arabs called him Allah?

No one is trying to diminish the superiority of Allah but don't deny Allah's original identity. Yahweh as also gone through tremendous evolution since the 900BC

The moon is an Arab thing, it's not about worship but as an important source of living.
The moon was an important symbol of the Arabian traditions and they associated it with their Gods but notably the chief of the Gods- Allah
Similar to the Kemet traditions and love for the Sun as The associated their Gods with it but mostly AmunRa the supreme
Culture › Re: Yoruba Origin, History and Canaanland connection. by macof(m): 6:11pm On Jan 09, 2014
MetaPhysical: In a metaphysical sense, the cosmic world is a flooded dimension. We are carried in a vessel safely through the unseen but perceived deluge. Those that fail to board the vessel are drowned. The vessel is what OPON IFA is. In it you have TWO of every animal (possible permutations of events or ODU).

All the numbers and dimensions given to Noah are all cryptic messages for the ORACLE.

Divination started with Noah, Abraham spread it across the land. Moses canonized it.
True explicit study and you would realize Most Bible characters used Oracle but there's still no basis to conclude that Ifa is one and the same oracle of Ancient Semites.

Those any Ifa corpus state any character similar to Noah's personality?

According to Wat I heard from elders Orunmila developed Ifa in Ilesun(now Ado-Ekiti)
So are you saying Ekiti oral history is wrong or wat?


Ephod is just a bag or a sack or container in which must be kept the tools of divination. The tools as well as the bag are sacred and at all times must be maintained in a purified state.

Actually Yoruba priests carry two bags, the other one is called LABA - the bag of secrets!
Ephod is not just a bag, it's an actual clog worn and placed across the shoulders by priest and others during rituals and ceremony.

I haven't seen an actual ephod but I've seen pictures of it worn by ancient Hebrews

Do you have pictures of Laba since am not actually sure how it looks?

ladionline: You make good point. But you should remember the people involve are two adults, male and female. Their relationship is private to them as long as its not the first of its kind or illegal. I remember Hafsat Abiola, Akuiyili's and so on. At the bolded, I learnt from pagan9ja that he believe we evolve few days ago. The notion came from Charles Darwin and Herbart Spencer not last year, this guys are whites. When you share the same faith with someone, do you have to pick on just anything cultural from them with eternal suspicion again? Unhealthy suspicion is hate.
Yh But seriously.
An Edo lady in her 20s- Irish man in his 50s what love is that? someone is deceiving someone.

The rest of your post has nothing to do with this topic. WTH does evolution even have to do withhuh

I am not supporting kolo, but what is the future of religion that is easy to offend and is discriminative? You once told me we evolve, that's the tenet of your paganism. Your tenet is not original to you or to Africa, it is Oyinbo belief. Why hate people you are indebted to?
Pagan 9ja has his ideology and reasons for his comments in this thread.
Paganism isn't all to do with this topic, The Irish man could be a pagan devoted to Esus or any Deity it doesn't Change the fact that 50+ Irish man marrying a Young Edo in her 20s is totally rubbish. I find it hard to believe it's love but abeg even love knows wat is right and wat is wrong

Mr President: Typical Israelite behaviour. Perpetually asking for signs and evidences and proof even if it is starring them in the face and racking them in the brain. In your own case, Macof, despite the gamut of historical, cultural evidences and faultless precepts from the Holy Bible, you continue to scoff.
Dude proof you are Israeli or shut up
I can proof I am fully Ekiti. I have an identity, I have a people who know I am for them

Where are your people? What is your identify, can your trace your family history up to 200yrs ago? You don't know your bloodline how can you know where your family originated from.

Elementary Yoruba history tells us that when Oduduwa arrived Ile-ife from the Middle-east, he met people already living there. These people made him king or rather, he conquered them. Take care to note that the Bible usually recognises a whole multitude of people as single individuals, Why isn't it logical, then, that Oduduwa rather than being a single individual, is a conquering army receding from Roman forces?
Elementary Yoruba that you learned from Slaves like you.

Ask true sons of the land, even the Ooni of Ife- who sits on the throne of Oduduwa, would tell you Oduduwa was an Heavenly being sent by Olodumare to fulfill Ifa prophecy.

And it is well documented among the Yoruba that it is war that drove Oduduwa from the Middle-east!
Who are these Yoruba? Slaves like you who claim Yoruba? Pls any Yoruba history you get from delusional Jewish or Arab shitt lickers is fake

Ooni of ife as spoken

It just may be that you are a hamite, that the spirit inside you is a hamitic spirit, through the process of reincarnation you have forgotten your hamitic roots. You yourself confess that you ancestors are hamites.
Yorubas are not hamitic but Negroid.
Hamites are Northern and Eastern Africans- Get that into your dumb skull

Why shouldnt I believe this is your spirit speaking out wink though you are quite unconscious of it, Ever heard of Freudian slips wink?

Just if you are hamitic, it may be riling to know you are less than Israel
most Hamites are Arab slaves, they technically have no affiliation wit Israel.

I am as free and proud of my identity as any regular Israeli, truth is Israelis are very proud, infact their pride as turned to racism and discrimination.
My people are not racist, we don't discriminate And we are very proud of who we are and proud of our ancestors

but Yashua came for you too; those that are not originally part of the commonwealth of Israel. Come chop better life. Come roll with the winning team cheesy cheesy cool
Your Yahshua is dead and gone, He couldn't save Israel talkless of the whole world.

Isaiah 49:6
And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.


An olive branch for you, reject it, and just if you are not Israelite, be damned forever! wink wink
Good for your likes.
We in Ile-Oodua have always had light, Olodumare has blessed every people of the world and we Ekiti are greatly blessed. We could share you some if you wish to be our slave wink

Thanks!
There is nothing bad about being yourself
There is nothing bad about being a man of your tribe
There is nothing bad about practicing the spirituality, traditions, and culture of your people

If being Yoruba is being foolish then the whole world is foolish
But of course not, there's nothing that gives a man more pride than having an identity.

He descended into the underworld.
On the third day,
He defeated Death, rose to life and ascended into Heaven.
He sits at the Right hand of ALMIGHTY GOD, THE FATHER.
From there,
He will come again in Glory, to judge the Living & the Dead and His kingdom will have No End.
