Igbos voted PDP not a Yoruba interest.. Ojukwu was just being clownish in 2003 election. He wasn't a contestant per sey. grin
You mean the Igbos were suppose to vote for Yoruba interest? Ojukwu never stepped down for anyone and never supported any other person and you said, he was not serious? As you rightly said they voted pdp not sectional interest that was being promoted by the Yoruba people. Don't forget AD and APGA were formed on tribal lines. The Igbos voted for PDP whose presidential candidate was a Yoruba man but what' about the Yoruba people they voted for tribal interest as usual.
The yoruba's would not have voted an Igbo man.

You're still missing the point or perhaps you just chose to ignore it, we are not talking about how we see things now, we are talking about how people in the 1800s and early 1900s viewed things. We are talking about human interpretation which has always been flawed. The point remains, they used their undertsanding of the Bible to justify white supremacy. Same way the Northern idiots are using their understanding of Islam to justify senseless killings.
Ok. But the Muslims followed the footsteps of their leader. Don't forget he laid ambush against rich mecca merchants, don't forget he attacks communities and marries wife of murdered person. This is not misinterpretation, it is called following his footstep or emulating the prophet

You want the truth or you want to continue arguing? Trust me I've read every page in the Bible, I also took theology courses as part of my graduate studies. I am telling you there are verses in the Bible that was interpreted to mean white supremacy. Slavery justifcation was mainly rooted in these verses, read Genesis 9:20-27:

After the flood recorded in Genesis 6-9 Noah’s three sons (Shem, Ham, and Japheth) repopulated the earth. Shem is the ancestor of the Hebrews, Japheth is the ancestor of Europeans, Ham is the ancestor of Africans.

An incident occurs in which Ham sees the unclothedness of his father causing Noah to pronounce a curse on Ham which turns his skin black and condemns his ancestors to perpetual slavery to the descendants of Shem and Japheth.

While most of us know better nowadays, those living back then took the Bible literally. this was one of the many ways those slave owners justified owning slaves, it was one of the ways the KKK and Jim Crow justified white supremacy.
No Curse of Ham in Genesis 9
First, it's important to read the biblical text!  There is no "curse of Ham" in Genesis 9.  Instead, Noah places a curse on Canaan (who in the narrative is Ham's son).  And this "Canaan" is obviously the eponymous ancestor of the Canaanites of the land of Canaan, who are the ones the Israelites are subsequently depicted (in the book of Joshua) as depriving of the land, in punishment for their idolatry and wickedness, so the story goes.

The first appearance of a "curse of Ham" is in the Middle Ages, and it's a puzzle where it comes from, as there is no basis in the Genesis text.

 

Second, the figure Ham in Genesis 9 is the ancestor of the peoples of Canaan, and also Egypt, and perhaps Libya, and Ethiopia.  So, by no means simply "black people."  Only in the European period of colonialism did the idea appear that the curse of Canaan was transferred to Ham and justified slavery.

Christianity are believers/followers of Christ, do you believe it started when Christ came to Earth? If we are to believe the Bible then Christ has always been there, so Abraham, david, Moses are all Christians. Remember in the beginning was the word and the word was God. If you read the Bible you would know that the word was Christ, so therefore he has always been there.
Really? Did the people you mentioned worship in churches or synagogue?
Anyway, you refused to talk about the difference between Christianity and Judaism.
But Muslims claims they were Muslims, they claimed they did Salah, yet Islam came more than 600years after Christianity and about 2600years( if I am not mistaking) after Judaism

Go back and read what I wrote, I never said they were a Christian organization, I said they used religion specifically Bible verses to show that whites were made to be superior. It was meant to be an example of how human interpretation is a problem rather than the religion.
The Bible never supported white supremacists neither does it have any portion that reflects white being superior. The Bible centered around the Jews and the gentiles ( every other race except the Jews). The KKK had their laws and modus operandi which doesn't relate with the Bible nor biblical interpretation

The guy was just telling you that Igbos and Yorubas have never been on the same page politically. You only voted for Obasanjo because he was contesting against another Yoruba man, Olu Falae who was obviously the SW choice.

Igbos voted Shagari against Awolowo in 1979 and Tofa against Abiola in 1993.
Igbos voted Obasanjo ( a Yoruba man) against Ojukwu( an Igbo man) in 2003.

You're partially right, KKK evolved as a resistance to black freedom after Lincoln's politics basically crippled the South, they all wanted the U.S to go back to the days of slavery as they believed blacks did not deserve to be the same as whites. Most of their memebrs were former slave owners. White churches in the late 1800s and early 1900s were notoriously known as meeting spots and enablers for the KKK.

The group almost went to extinction before being revived in 1915 as a tool for political rebellion. This was when they took up the burning of the cross as a sign to show that the country needs to go back to the old days where religion and society made sure whites maintained their superiority. This particular version of KKK was more violent ad had over 4 million members nationwide, they were boosted by the Jim crow laws of segregation and did not relent until around 1960.
Thank God you mentioned Jim Crow laws of segregation. You didn't mention that they burned churches also. It was never a Christian religious movement as you were trying to paint it but a white supremacists movements.

Shocker....Guess what? So did Moses, David, Jonah. They all killed people, they all were murderous. Trust me you don't want to go there, if violence is the bar then we might as well scrap both religions.
No sir. Christians are Christ like meaning they emulate Jesus Christ while Islam basically followed the anticidence of Prophet Muhammad whose actions his followers are emulating. The Bible records events that occurred before the coming of Christ, when he came and after his death.

Islam has her root with violence promoted by the prophet of Islam while Christianity has her root in the peace promoted by Christ Jesus

Ask yourself is Christianity peaceful? Now remember less than 60 years ago people(Jim Crow/KKK) still lynched and killed black folks because according to them they felt the Bible classified them as inferior or defective. When we argue let's do so objectively, human interpretation has been the blemish on most religion.
Please Kun klux klan was a white supremacists movements ( not religious) they were against Congressional reconstruction by murdering blacks and some whites who were either active in republican politician or involve in educating blacks.

Nothing is given in politics? The two major parties gave their presidential tickets to South west on the ground of injustice, and after eight years the two major parties gave their presidential tickets to the north. The death of Y'adua destroyed it. After Goodluck's first full tenure, the north cried out just as the south east are crying out now that it's should be zoned to their zone.
I feel it's injustice to the Igbo people. I had related with the Igbos, yoruba's and various northern tribes in which I reside. When you talk about tribes that are evil and lacks conscience, it is never a tribal thing but that of an individual.

Calabar. Please note that anybody who can kill or eat dogs can as well kill humans and eat them.

Dogs have all the reflexes humans have. They have emotions, feelings, pain, hunger, thirst, crying, happiness, etc. They are more intelligent than most humans too
It's a big lie. The animal that have emotions, feelings, care, bigger brain than humans and very intelligent is elephant not dog

In Sociology and Anthropology, we were told that no culture is superior that all culture are the same. So it's height of foolishness and a total display of illiteracy if you used your own way of life as a yardstick to measure or judge others.

For your culture to frown upon eating of dog, or see eating of dog as a taboo, doesn't mean that dog is not edible or other culture do not welcome it or there's anything wrong with those who eat it.

In this thread I have seen how people used their culture to judge others because eating of dog meat is seen as a taboo in their culture.

In most culture, the cow meat and the goat meat we eat mostly here, is seen as a taboo. You dare not kill a cow or goat .

The level of illiteracy exuded by alot of people here is saddening and it clearly shows that we don't read.

So my dears,

God will punish any idiot or any fool that will come here and mention calabar or Akwa Ibom. You'll tell me if the meat you eat also is not an animal, or the one you eat was approved by God, while dog meat was disapproved by God.


Those who are free to shout calabar or Akwa Ibom are those who hasn't eaten any type of animal meat including fish. If you eat cow meat, fish, goat, chicken etc and you come here to bash Akwa Ibom people, God will punish you.

Only true vegetarians and fruitarians can condemned eating of dog meat and it make sense, not some uselesssss idiotic nonentities that eat cow meat and goat meat voraciously.
Dog meat are not only eaten by Akwa Ibom and Cross River State people in Nigeria. When you come up north especially the people from Kaduna, Plateau, parts of Gombe, Bauchi, Nasarawa eat dog meat.

Funny enough snake is the only animal that was cursed in the Bible and many people eat snakes and the devil in you did not make you think it's bad, the other animal called pig became a recipient of demons (legion) casted out from a mad man, yet some of the demon eaters would abuse a dog eater. But dog never received the wrath of God.
