Amujale: All the stories and commentaries about Yoruba having any significant ancestral lineage from anywhere outside of Western Africa is far fetched at the least and simply impossible to be frank.
Its simple, a region can NOT influence another if it wasnt even in existence. Sub-sahara Africa is documented as being the cradle of humanity and thousands of years and scores of civilisations passed before the mass migration to populate the rest of the world ensued; therefore neither Israel nor Mecca could have had any sort of influence on the infancy stages of Ife because of a simple technicality; they were both unpopulated regions during this particular period in time.
The same can be said about NOK (as in that the NOK culture was influenced by Ife and NOT the other way around), the truth is that much of the present Nigerian demography preceeds any human activity coming out of either Europe or Asia land mass for the simple reason that we were responsible for its population due migration and mutation(sic)[whichever came first]
All the evidence shows that civilisation moved up the Nile and NOT downwards, this is to say that Egypt didnt influence Ife; however, Ife were amongst the many major sub-sahara civilisations that was to provide substantive influence on Ancient Egypt. Dont every use the word sub sahara. Use South of Sahara or west Africa instead. We should stop all this nonsense, Yoruba is an Africa Civilization, we're not proto semetic stop it already. Semetic is not a good thing. |

ekt_bear: Why are we assuming anyone created God?
Maybe he has always existed, I dunno. Or maybe he came into being w/o any other "being" making him. Everything as a beginning and an ending. |

Quran:
"Slay them wherever you find them, (Surah 2:190-)
"Fighting is obligatory for you, much as you dislike it." (Surah 2:216)
"Believers, do not make friends with any but your own people, They desire nothing but your ruin, You believe in the entire Book, When they meet you they say: 'We, too, are believers.' But when alone, they bite their finger-tips with rage." (Surah 3:118, 119)
"If you should die or be slain in the cause of God, His forgiveness and His mercy would surely be better than all the riches, " (Surah 3:156-)
"Seek out your enemies relentlessly." (Surah 4:103-)
"The Jews and Christians say: 'We are the children of God and His loved ones.' Say: 'Why then does He punish you for your sins?" (Surah 5:18)
"Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends." (Surah 5:51) |

amor4ce: I didn't say you are GOD. Weren't you and I created to be sons of GOD? What does Orunmila's oriki say about the orisha (saints)? For us to move forward we have to do away with hagiolatory. Where was it ever mentioned that Our Maker instructed us to engage in hagiolatory? Won't anyone respond to exotik's contribution? I still dont get you :/ Are you by any chance trying to say Ifa is bad and Christianity is good? |

amor4ce: because the idea of a thunder god was a figment of imagination that arose out of the desire of some people to worship something they thought they could physically touch and see? Did Olodumare ever say that Sango should be worshiped as a god or was it an imposed tradition of men? An imposed and fictitious tradition that has resulted many in dark-skinned peoples being soiled in vomit (slavery, confused oral history, lack of knowledge and restraint)? Btw, Olodumare is not a god. Olodumare is everything, everything is Olodumare  you probably meant Olorun. |

They were probably inspired by some native people who they trade with  Just like Shango, he was not our original thunder god. He replaced the old thunder god. |
