all4naija: Good percentage of African culture is barbarism.

kingston277: I can put on kente cloth if I like. Still doesn't make me anymore African influenced than before I put it on. You have a weird perception of how people think, the Chinese aren't as ignorant of their culture as you.

pickabeau1: Dude who spoke of Rome
Some of the Afrocentrics here like you..with offensive language

pickabeau1: Let me re quote what i said earlier...

Survival first

What has surprsed me is that no one has mentioned anything about the intangibles which is even more than clothes and feeding
This is what the extremist afrocentrics dont get

Values is what determines culture

TYoday we know of the doggedness of the Japanese who rose from the ashes of WW2 and rebilt their nation
Was it becuase of the kimono and samurai swords?? .. puhleezeee

This is my last post here as dudes here are rude and caustic

skillet: Sorry, i replied this late, but you understand. By "some of u worship an eastern God am sure you are refering to Jehova. I wont bother talking too much but if ogun demands blood for worship, and the binis require slaves for sacrifice and J[b]ehova just requires that you belive in his Son, i think Jehova is the safest bet yet.[/b]

pickabeau1: Yes,... africa had great civilisations... i know this and this should be celebrated and taught in schools
If you dont know where you are coming from, how can you know where you are going....

However some of their attitude leaves much to be desired

Demainman1: Israel accepts Egyptian proposal for cease-fire; Hamas rejects it

Israel is in big shit for this area o, Sometimes you wonder why God will surround "his own people" with enemies.

God why?

Israel is in serious shi t I tell you. Those terrorists will not rest until all Jews have been wiped off the earth or sent to UGANDA.

Well, make we just siddon dey look on.

kingston277: Those are sierra leone pictures.

pickabeau1: Typical....

kingston277: Africans built ships like that all the time...

Rossikki: The suit is European in origin but not unique to Europe. So what's your point?

Underground: Lol!
You have even debunked yourself without realizing it! Where on earth did you get this map from? A palestine state with arficial straight line borders? How so? And why is the outline of the present state of Israel and Palestine showing within this map itself? Have you asked yourself that question? The map is so ridiculous it beggars belief!

I'll do you one. Why don't you log unto wikipedia where you would find accurate historical pictures of Palestine, not this fictional one which you have posted here... Here is the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Palestine

pickabeau1: Better

zabyx: IMO, Ancient Greece is nit overrated. The philosophy and other scholarship from that civilization is the basis of what we call modern.

Sagamite: This guy is a complete person!

I never get such wrong.

Rossikk: Africans and Egyptians dressed exactly the same way - short, intricately designed loin cloths, bare chest adorned with ornamentation.

Sagamite: person, and why are you quoting me?

Ibnsultan: IDF is sending warning to Gazans to leave their homes. Reports have it a ground ops will be taking place in few hours. Its going to be bloody

Sagamite: Yep. But definitely not civilised enough.

They are a State Terrorist.

All they are doing right now is to cause Terror in Gaza.

Sagamite:
This is a frequent occurrence by the people that like to foool the world that they are a civilised society. The ones that like shouting "We are the only democratic government in the Middle East".

Here is a report:

I will give you the summary.

CAMNEWTON4PRES: They didn't plan past their liberation movement

pickabeau1: Did u mean every culture is great in its own right?

skillet: Sorry, i replied this late, but you understand. By "some of u worship an eastern God am sure you are refering to Jehova. I wont bother talking too much but if ogun demands blood for worship, and the binis require slaves for sacrifice and Jehova just requires that you belive in his Son, i think Jehova is the safest bet yet.

pickabeau1: Basically subjective

A culture is great to you because you like it or were told it was great?

pickabeau1: As I asked earlier...what determines greatness of a culture

pickabeau1: Whats the point of all this...

Fulaman198: You linked a Coliseum, what about the Mosque of Djenne, or the Pyramids of Egypt? There are many wonders of Africa as well, did you know the binary system might have also begun in Africa.

pickabeau1: This thread is really all about the place

How can you term a dance as evidence of d greatness of a culture

All the while I've been waiting for intangibles which are even more important

That's the identity


So if I dance like a Zulu man ..I'm Zulu yay

The Zulus are great because of d exploits of their leaders, their wars with the Boers and wealth not a dance

Fulaman198: Sounds like it was written by a European or a White guy, we already know that Ancient Egyptians were black even white PhD professors have said so, the interesting thing is that Yoruba people and Bini people in Ancient Times dressed like Ancient Egyptians, in Fulani folklore there is a story about some families (Ba, Ka, Diallo, Barry) originating from Egypt (Masri):

The ethnogenesis of the Fulani people, however, seems to have begun as a result of interactions between an ancient West African population and a North African population in the areas around the bend of the Niger river. They are people of combined West African as well as North African origin.

Fulaman198: There was Rome in Africa albeit Ancient Egypt, albeit the Zulu Empire, albeit the Songhai Empire, The Benin Empire, the Tukulur(Toucouleur)/Fulani empires, etc.
