Black People : PROF. WALTER WILLIAMS - TONIGHT

I know what MAAT symbolizes Im just trying to get a straight answer from dude since the language was never decoded and unless someone has built a time machine and traveled back to the time of the Pharoahs we cant know this. Unless ofcourse the rosetta stone was really decoded, and the answer is yes it was. It may not have been word for word but it was close enough that you all can get an understanding of MAAT and the knowledge of creation. End story.

Good morning sister. It seems like you were a little out of sorts last evening. I found it all very easy to overstand. What parts seemed to elude you? Also, my dear sister, just beacuse someone has a "name" within the literary community means nothing. I have found that quite frankly many times it is the "outsiders" that delve deeply into subjects that people find hard to deal with. me, I always knew that Many of the so called "great texts" were based on tales and fables. And that is fine. however, when these are presented in a way to lead Afrikan people around by the nose, then I have a problem with it. I grew up a so called christian. Until I started asking questions about things that made NO sense to me. Why dont you do this: buy the 2 books, read them and then do your own research and decide. OK? This is typed with love.:hearts1:

dude has a name and his name is Brother Keita... we should be respectful to one another first...

We don't need a time machine to understand the concept of truth.. symbols and concepts are not tangible...

I mean simply put all the advanced or so called advanced knowledge that we have has not given the ability to replicate the pyramids.....

the problem is that everyone always wants to make sense out of things that are not suppose to make sense...

If you follow what I'm saying ... there is no need to speak with Pharoah... Pharoahs responsibility was to contiuously by example follow the laws of MAAT.... the laws of nature and order....

everyone always wants to break a code... when really everyone already knows right from wrong......

the "want" to break the code is not necessary as a need ....

speculation is not the same as knowledge.... I can speculate as to what anything means.... that doesn't make it so.....
 
Let me first say Thank you Bro Keita, for the information provided last night. I had some difficulty interacting with other listeners for some reason,(my computer) but was able to hear the entire audio, for that I am grateful! Due to an early am. engagement I was not able to dialogue when the audio ended.
I have stated ad infinitum that I am still learning, having heard and read excerpts of Prof. Williams many years ago, this was personally satisfying, and informative. A grand opportunity to take another look back...I have read a few post concerning the discussion that followed and as I was unable to participate, let me say simply that it is, what it is; whether one accepts the perception or projection of such knowledge is a personal decision, yet, for many of us, me included forced by (mother :hearts4: ) into a christian indoctrination, I have been saddled with falsehood and lies most of my life.
I accept the brothers foundation and the spirit from whence it comes. He has provided to any who wish to pursue farther a template that can only enhance further study. That should be the spirit of any additional dialogue, its out there if you disbelieve do the research! A fascinating audio discussion, Thank you Destee, and Bro Keita, I look forward to future discussions.

The Struggle Continues!

Peace!
 
no disrepect ;) for a rational and objective thinker, I was of the impression you entered this chat with one objective - looking at a tree, forgetting the forrest. You repeatedly logged out (accidentally) as you said you were multitasking at the time, you eventually left and missed the complete second half - you arrived an hour after Brother Keita started expressing his own views - only to return looking at the same tree. hmmmmm!

It is one thing (and expected) that devils advocate or not, one questions the credibility of any 'expert' - quite another to peek through an information keyhole and be annoyed when one cant see the whole house through it.. partcularily when the door was wide open and all one had to do was walk though it.

I do hope someone is willing to backtrack and answer your tree.. umm.. question ;)

I was not trynna disrespect or knock you last night Keita. All I was doing was asking a question at which point you seemed to have gotten upset. The question was regarding the Walter Williams tape. He said that the heirogliphs have never been decoded. Well then if that is true how is it that you and others on this board claim to know so much about Heru, Ausar, Set ect? How is it that people can go about knowing what MAAT is and so forth? Last time I checked there were no english words or alphabets the phonecians if im correct came long after the egyptians. So how is it that u can use the alphabet to speak or write a language which according to dude, has never been decoded? There are no english, french, arabic, swahili, fulani or anyother languages common today written at any of the temples in Karnack, Abydos, Memphis or anywhere else for that matter.

Im a rational and objective thinker its just the way I have been taught and i will not just except things that are handed to me at face value especially by someone whom I know nothing about and has no credentials to speak of, (Walter Williams) atleast not to my knowledge. Research is based on evidence and fact you have to have something to support ur claim otherwise its just that, a claim. Now I know that you all dont deal with the whites and their research and I can understand that. However there are plenty of black researchers and historians out there who have done the work and it stands up to scrutiny namely Cheik anta Diop, John Henrik Clark and Ivan Van Sertima just to name a few.

By the way I am not a defender of the bible or any other holy book I was simply there to ask questions as good devils advocate would, metaphorically speaking.
