[QUOTE]Originally posted by Morpheus: [QB] Interesting discussion. I take it that you are a Hebrew Israelite, Energy? The Bible is not ignored on this site. It is sometimes referenced for its connection to Ancient Egyptian history. However not everyone here is a Christian. Science is the main tool used on these boards to understand the biological affinities of the Ancient Egyptians. I myself was raised a Baptist Christian but am now Agnostic. I do not believe that the Bible is inerrant. I'm very skeptical of Divine Revelation in general because I have not seen any compelling evidence. My two cents on using the Bible as a tool for Black history..... As an African-American I recognize that Christianity has played an important role in the cultural (some might say spiritual) development of our people. A prime example of this is the Civil Rights movement and the way leaders like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. turned to the Bible for guidance and used its teaching to fight discrimination. However as far as the Bible being written by Blacks and foretelling the fate of people of African decent I do not believe this is true. I believe the Bible was written by people of Middle Eastern descent who looked like many tan-skinned, dark-haired people we find in the region today. I wouldn't call these people White either. The Ancient Egyptian artwork depicts Asiatics with distinctive features indicating that they looked the same way they do today. Christianity is a religion whose adherents rely on their faith and was intended for all people who believed in Jesus's teachings. There are prophecies in the Bible said to foretell the fate of God's chosen people. I do not believe these prophecies have a racial element to them. I'm sure that several other people on this site agree with me when it comes to religious books like the Bible. [/QB][/QUOTE]
