"geographical distribution of cultures" verbiage only makes it harder to understand your dumb ideas.
"artefacts found among the binis which are common and peculiar to the ancient ifa and orunmila", now you are just fishing for something, anything I guess.
Whatever you claim, you should prove. Just stop throwing words here and there like a toddler throwing his food instead of eating it, prove your claims. Simple.
If you claim the Oba of Benin migrated from ife, then prove it !

Also keep in mind that the person you are talking to is not necessarilly the usual nigerian idiot.
And you think that throwing words like colonial maps are enough prove to assert errors?
you have proven to be one idiot already and there are no proofs for your ape type.
Whether you like it or not binis were lost tribes of the great ife, jump to the clouds everyone knows it and nothing can change that grin

Just to see your level, I asked the same question to a toddler and here is his reply: "by those who witnessed history and who could write".

So your level is below that of a toddler.

But our ancestors couldn't write. So you and your toddler are dumb.

I think you lack the ability to think properly. first establish your claim as truth through the form of a proof before calling it such and telling me to accept it with a speech that can only be described as emotional nonesense.
Your ethnicity is irrelevant, it is all about your reasoning and your illogical assumptions which you want to pass as facts.

you can't be asking of prove over what is already known everywhere, may be you are the one not listening to your environment.

The official documentation of the national museum and monument have it already that binis originated from ife.

Go to ring road and ask, that is exactly what the binis will tell you.

But again, there are conflicting ideas from some quarters that the binis did not originate from ife, but there are no domentations of that position that is accepted nationally.

Stop talking around, just prove your claim.

Let me quickly quote out what your family members are running from. grin

SUCCESSION CRISIS AND THE FOUNDING OF THE PRESENT
EWEKA DYNASTY IN BENIN


it is now necessary to narrate the events that led to the
request for a king from Ile-Ife and the founding of the present
dynasty in Benin. The seeming complacence of Oliha and Edion Uzama
during Owodo's misrule seem to have worked against them after the
banishment of Owodo. None of them was called upon to rule over the
people. Rather the people of Ile chose one of their community
leaders Evian. He was appointed as an administrator about 1091.
Evian's rule was peaceful, but he had his own ambition to perpetuate
his family in office. In short, he wanted to establish his own
dynasty. When he became old, his administration started to weaken
and problems started to develop. The people then started agitating
for a new rule. During this period, too, the Oliha during Owodo's
misrule died and he was succeeded by his young son. Evian took
advantage of his situation to nominate his eldest son Ogiemwen and
proceeded to enthrone him. The people of Ile led by the young Oliha
did not accept this arrangement. Moreover, they were aware that
Ekaladerhan the rightful heir was still alive and ruling in Ile-Ife.
The Oliha and the other four members of the Edion Uzama decided to
go to Ekaladerhan Imadoduwa the Ooni of Ife to beg him to return to
Ile to assume his throne in 1153. The Ooni received them, but he was
not happy with them. After the preliminary quarrels, the Ooni told
them that he was not prepared to return to Ile for two reasons namely
that his new kingdom Ile-Ife was too big to be abandoned and that he
had become too old to embark on such a journey. In addition he was
still bitter and had not forgotten about the way the former Oliha had
neglected and abandoned him. But due to the persistent pleading of
the delegation, the Ooni agreed to help them on the condition , they
underwent some tests. They agreed. He gave them some lice to take
home and return with them back to Ile-Ife after three years. Three
years later about 1150, the Oliha and his team returned to Ile-Ife
with the lice. The Ooni was happy with them for having been able to
take care of insects as small as lice. He then concluded that since
they have been able to take care of lice, they would be able to take
care of his son. The Ooni called his eldest son Prince Aigbovo
(alias Omonoyan who had been appointed as successor to the Ooni) to
follow them to Ile to establish an administration. Prince Aigbovo
Omonoyan obeyed his father's instructions and left Ile-Ife with some
allies among whom was the Oloton who was made the sixth member of the
Edion Uzama about 1100 A.D. he stayed in a palace built for him at
Usama and became friendly with Erinmwinde the beautiful daughter of
the Enogie of Egor. She soon became pregnant. But he did not seem
to be receiving full cooperation from the people of Ile after two
years of staying in Usama. It was because of this that he started
calling the town Ile-Ibinu. He abdicated about 1163 A.D. and left
some of his allies to look after his son. He instructed the people
to enthrone his son as the next Oba, before he left for Ile-Ife.
From there Omonoyan proceeded to Oyo where he had another son Oranyan
who later became the Alafin of Oyo. Omonoyan returned to Ile-Ife
about 1167 and succeeded his father as the second Ooni of Ile-Ife.
The instructions he left behind that his child from Erinmwinde should
be enthroned as the king of Oba of Benin was adhered to. This child
was male and was crowned Oba Eweka I. He founded the present
dynasty. What happened was not really the founding of a new dynasty
as such. It was rather the reestablishment of the dynastic line
started by the Theban Prince Ogiso Igodo.

Do you see now that the benin dynasty originated from ife?

By the way, when these maps were made there was also nothing called nigeria.

Romans 1:27-29,32 KJV
And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. [28] And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; [29] Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, [32] Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.


https://www.google.com.ng/search?q=homosexuality+in+animals&oq=homosexuality+in+animals&aqs=chrome..69i57.11622j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

No species has been found in which homosexual behaviour has not been shown to exist, with the exception of species that never have sex at all, such as sea urchins and aphis. Moreover, a part of the animal kingdom is hermaphroditic, truly bisexual. For them, homosexuality is not an issue.

Just read that wiki page and your mind would be blown.

Why it is so, don't ask me but that is the reality on ground and let's not even go to the bonobo . Those ones are on anoda level. Homogeneous MouthAction to achieve orgasm and also their orgies. Apes faa!


Back to the topic. I believe in live and let live. No need trying too churn your beliefs on another and another not doing so to me. There is a general human conscience in us all to know what is right and what is wrong. If as a nation we work on that and not religious or political sentiments, we would move mountains on a global scope.

The fact that it is ingrained in most religions that unbelievers are by definition "evil" makes religion inherently evil.

Religion (the Abrahamic religions) are inherently immoral. The only saving grace is that the practitioner can choose to follow the religion in a moral way.

[b]It does bro. However, its advantages outweigh the disadvantages, how?. Religion is the best tool to keep people in check (restricting humans from inhumane acts) with the fear of death and afterlife. It helps in giving people amazing fantasies. It gives them hope when they pray to their gods. It also allows them to profess hypocritical love to others. I can continue listing them.
Bad sides of religion.
It forbids logic and reason. It makes people(its adherents) to do extraordinary craz.y things (believing that some demons are disturbing their lives). It makes people to become terrorists (Boko haram, crusades). Charlattans use it as an avenue to manipulate their gullible followers. The list is also endless.

[b]I know you are being sarcastiIt does bro. However, its advantages outweigh the disadvantages, how?. Religion is the best tool to keep people in check (restricting humans from inhumane acts) with the fear of death and afterlife. It helps in giving people amazing fantasies. It gives them hope when they pray to their gods. It also allows them to profess hypocritical love to others. I can continue listing them.
Bad sides of religion.
It forbids logic and reason. It makes people(its adherents) to do extraordinary craz.y things (believing that some demons are disturbing their lives). It makes people to become terrorists (Boko haram, crusades). Charlattans use it as an avenue to manipulate their gullible followers. The list is also endless.
One thing I know in life is that there is nothing that have a good side without the bad side[/B]

Then I must say it does, though not directly but by proxy. Like we have some Sharia laws that are against human rights e.g. an ex-q-Muslim will be tagged an apostate or heretic in Saudi Arabia and might be imprisoned or beheaded just because he denounces his religion. This scenario is one of the many harmful effects of religion.
