This is not a kiddie chat forum nor a comic book forum. The forum title clearly says "Ancient Egypt". Generally speaking posts deal with history or race, all of which could logically emanate from a discussion of ancient Egypt. If you did not want to, or lacked the knowledge to, discuss those issues, why did you join?

It's not kiddie chat.
Everything you said by the way is incorrect.
Ancient Egypt thread
quote: Non-Egyptology related discussion. African roots, race, origin of man etc.
Mike there are plenty of threads here not talking just about egypt,so get off my case.
I guess mike ignored the word black in one of my threads.
Mike, i posted those threads awhile ago,so why you bother to mention anything about it now?
You can't chew gum and walk at the same time?
There are only two threads about comics and superhero related media mike,one is blacks in comics and thier history and the other is just general news so no need to get a heart attack.
It now just about comics by the way,it's about blacks and thier history in the live media playing heroes,superheros in film etc... too.
One thread is about history and blacks,just in comics and superhero movies,tv show etc...so i guess that flew over your head.
Believe me those comics etc.. are not kiddie stuff and superhero movies are making alot of money,like it or not.
Real serious stories go on there.
I DO NOT KNOW why i even have to explain myself to you,but i guess i have some free time for now.
By the way those threads COULD be just having fun chats,entertainment news etc...so lighten up abit.
Oh and i mean not by bleaching yourself with fade creams black european.
Anyway if you do not want to talk about blacks in comics etc...and their HISTORY ,then mind your own business.

Mali - I see that you have gone off the reservation again.
You really must try to control yourself. You have been trained by your Albino dominated society to think of yourself as a primarily sexual creature, so that you will not involve yourself with the necessities of power and wealth.
(I believe that by the latest stats, Brazil has replaced Thailand as the worlds preeminent sex destination).
Surely by now it must be dawning on you that your path leads to nowhere. Please return your mind to the important work that we do here.

Whenever you're challenged or told to go **** off, the bigot comes out of you, and you spew your internalised racism - poor wounded fucker.
Come on then. Explain how you "sense a true wannbe".
Hahahahaha. Look at how some dumb, vacuous, trashy guy in Brazil, who buys into your Black European nobility bollocks, tries to defend you by posting porn.

Is this a fuckin' joke? You make me laugh. Your 'work'? Your 'work'?! Man, your head is stuck so far up your own ass. Your sense of self-importance is incredible.

^Wannabe African, I'm sure.
I'll bet that when you grow up, you want to build an even BIGGER Cathedral to honor what is now Albino religion.
(The biggest church building in the world. Cathedral in Yamoussoukro, Ivory Coast(Cote D'ivoire)
And yes, I consider my work VERY important.
Aside from your ability to please Albinos, what contribution do you make?
Posted by mena7 (Member # 20555) on :
My conspiracy mind is thinking that Ivory Coast President Houphouet Boigny built the greatest Cathedral in the world base on the design of St Peters cathedral in Rome to symbolicaly tell the world that the Papacy was created and governed by black people until the late colonial era.
If I was rich I would have ask the Ivoirian government to sell me or rent me the beautiful Cathedral of Yamoussoukro to create a black African Christianity religion with male and female Priests, Bishops and cardinals.
The beautiful cathedral of St Augustine of Yamoussoukro.

Ignoring the unnecessary and unfortunate Porn above..Mena are you serious???. you would continue this travesty with equally religious B/S in Black face instead of turning it into a world class university with a research and development center to rival MIT and others around the globe and surpass them..Mike is right on this,this is clearly & literally a waste of space created by an ass.
Posted by Mike111 (Member # 9361) on :
mena7 - That beautiful cathedral of St Augustine of Yamoussoukro cost 300 million U.S. Dollars.
Houphouet Boigny chose to use that money to impress Europeans, rather than help these people.
That's his dinner.
Posted by mena7 (Member # 20555) on :
Brada Anansi I remember when Ivory Coast president Felix Houphouet Boigny was building the Yamoussoukro Cathedral the African media criticized him for making a poor choice he should have built instead schools, universities and hospitals. The media states that the majority of the Ivory Coast population wasn't even Catholic. I agree with the African media back then.
If I was spending $300 million to build a cathedral I would have create my own branch of African Christianity independent from European Christianity. It doesn't make sense to build that expensive cathedral in somebody else religion. Religion is one of the greatest tool of empowerment of a people. Sole Invictus worshiper Roman Emperor Constantine make the Christian religion the official religion of the Roman Empire to united and empowered the Roman Empire. Later on when the Western empower fell the power of the Roman Emperor was transferred to the Catholic Pope. The Catholic Church crusades and colonisations through European Kings are the reason the Western world is dominating the world today. The Catholic Church is one of the richest institution in the world today.
I don't think there is a choice between building a Cathedral for a new religion and a university. Religion always have schools and universities example the Egyptian temples were universities, the Catholic church own schools, colleges and universities all over the world. The Catholic church also own a powerful bank and own shares in major multinational corporations.
It would have been a better Idea for Pres Houphouet Boigny to build another university and another hospital with $300 million. Ivory Coast was one of the richest country in Africa under Houphouet Boigny before the civil war supported by the Neo colonial powers. Maybe he thought the Ivory coast could afford that expensive Cathedral

The Basilica of Our Lady of Peace of Yamoussoukro (French: Basilique Notre-Dame de la Paix de Yamoussoukro) is a Roman Catholic minor basilica dedicated to Our Lady of Peace in Yamoussoukro, the administrative capital of Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast). The basilica was constructed between 1985 and 1989 at a cost of $300 million. The design of the dome and encircled plaza are clearly inspired by[2] those of the Basilica of Saint Peter in the Vatican City, although it is not an outright replica.[3] The cornerstone was laid on August 10 1985, and it was consecrated on September 10 1990 by Pope John Paul II.[4]
The basilica is not a cathedral. The nearby Cathedral of Saint Augustine[5] is the principal place of worship and seat of the bishop of the Diocese of Yamoussoukro.
Guinness World Records lists it as the largest church in the world, having surpassed the previous record holder, St. Peter's Basilica, upon completion. It has an area of 30,000 sq metres (322,917 sq ft) and is 158 m (518 ft) high.[6] However, it also includes a rectory and a villa (counted in the overall area), which are not strictly part of the church. It can accommodate 18,000 worshippers, compared to 60,000 for St. Peter's.[7]
The Basilica is administered by Polish Pallottines

The King of Morocco Hassan II constructed the 585 million euro Hassan II Mosque. The Hassan II Mosque is the 7th largest Mosque in the world.

The Hassan II Mosque or Grande Mosquée Hassan II (Arabic: مسجد الحسن الثاني; nickname: "Casablanca Hajj" (colloquial, microblogging and social networking language)[2] is a mosque in Casablanca, Morocco. It is the largest mosque in the country and the 7th largest in the world. Its minaret is the world's tallest at 210 metres (689 ft).[3][4] Completed in 1993, it was designed by Michel Pinseau and built by Bouygues. The minaret is 60 stories high topped by a laser, the light from which is directed towards Mecca.[5] The mosque stands on a promontory looking out to the Atlantic Ocean, the sea bed being visible through the glass floor of the building's hall.[4] The walls are of hand-crafted marble and the roof is retractable. A maximum of 105,000 worshippers can gather together for prayer: 25,000 inside the mosque hall and another 80,000 on the mosque's outside grounds.
The building was commissioned by King Hassan II to be the most ambitious structure ever built in Morocco.[10] It was designed by the French architect Michel Pinseau who had lived in Morocco, and was constructed by the civil engineering group Bouygues.[10]
Work commenced on July 12, 1986,[13] and was conducted over a seven-year period. Construction was scheduled to be completed in 1989 ready for Hassan II's 60th birthday. During the most intense period of construction, 1400 men worked during the day and another 1100 during the night. 10,000 artists and craftsmen participated in building and beautifying the mosque.[3] However, the building was not completed on schedule which delayed inauguration. The formal inauguration was subsequently chosen to be the 11th Rabi' al-thani of the year 1414 of the Hegira, corresponding to 30 August 1993, which also marked the eve of the anniversary of Prophet Muhammad’s birth. It was dedicated to the Sovereign of Morocco.[10]
Financing[edit]
Construction costs, estimated to be about 585 million euro, were an issue of debate in Morocco, a poor country. While Hassan wished to build a mosque which would be second in size only to the mosque at Mecca, the government lacked funds for such a grand project. Much of the financing was by public subscription.[14] Every Moroccan family was forced to pay a set amount, enforced by the police, to finance construction.[5] Another issue was the displacement of slum dwellers who lived in the vicinity of the mosque. Twelve million people donated to the cause, with a receipt and certificate given to every donor.[10] The smallest contribution was 5 DH. In addition to public donations and those from business establishments and Arab countries (such as Kuwait and Saudi Arabia), western countries provided construction loans
