Then say that his mother was Cush, meaning she was Hamitic, when the theory goes that Hamitic was suppose to be the start of the black race, not semitic. Never mind the fact that Hamitic only refers to a FEW East African nations(Ethiopians, Sudanese, Somalians, Egyptians) Yet our ancestors are NOT Eastern, they are Western Sudan, central and central south west Africans. Man, one of the many things wrong with our people. We are NOT valuing Honest Knowledge. Knowledge is TRULY power. And teaching people that the stories of the Bible are our true history is a Sad Mistake. Christianity much like Islam is a WHITE man's religion, if for no other reason but that it will ALWAYS divide us and keep us steeped in religion. When will we as African people finally leave that religion mess behind in the Dark Ages where it belongs ? Thats why we still have out brothers killing other brothers all over Africa and Jamaica because they're Gay. The ignorance has got to stop! Somehow we have adopted the prejudice and stupidity of our oppressors.
Is it Bad to talk about the Bad Aspects of our History ? Why cant we finally discuss the fact that it was our own brethren who sent us into bondage, regardless of its parameters. Its something that has to be discussed and taking accountable for. Its something that STILLS plague us today, yet all of our "Afrocentric" brothers are reluctant to admit that. It was the ignorance of Arabic Islam that send us into bondage and intellectual provincialism. We have to start taking responsibilities for ourselves or we will forever be lost in this Western Civilization.

You asked me a lot in your first paragraph. But before I answer you, I don't remember saying anything about 'religion' of which you commented on. I did not refer to 'Bible religion' but I referred to 'Bible as a record of history by dates and times'. So if you do not believe that the Bible contains 'Black History' then, what do you beleive? You beleive that this Federal government gave you accurate Black History!?
I dated Bible History to the Federal government's 'approved state' history. I compared and constrasted timelines. I did not talk about religion.
Next, my Great grandmother was from Sudan and came from the Port of Sudan and I agree partly to your statements about Ham.
Concerning AbraHam, I do not think I fully follow your question. Are you stating that 'Semetic people' are not black! All aboriginal Semetic [Shem] people are 'Seth' [South world people] or 'black'. But AbraHam was the son of a Semitic man and an Cushitic woman from 'Ur of the Chaldees'. His name 'Abram' defines him as such and so does his history.
I do not understand why you state that Christianity and Islam are white oriented.
As far as Separation of Church and State, I believe that it was good for the State to separate from the church because, if they did not believe in Jesus then, they should have separated. Now speaking religiously, I believe that if Jesus is real then, he knows how to take care of a nation that uses him as a basis for hundreds of years to kill and murder his race of people and then separate 'when the going gets good'. I'm not going to argue with you about that. I don't care for neither periods when this nation operated slavery under Christianity nor after the Separation of Church and State.
