fro I'm NOT letting go of this continent thing...cuz all I'm saying is this:

Massa said the original man derived from China and found out he lied...Original man derived from.....? Eek AFRICA!

Massa said that the WISDOM of the universe: Arts and Sciences derived from the Greeks....and found out he lied....Arts and Sciences derived from....?Eek AFRICA

Massa even said that the pyramids and the Egyptians who buiilt them...derived in the Middle East....and found out he lied cuz Egypt is in......?Eek AFRICA

Okay...Okay...stay with me NOW....Massa said that the Bible derived from areas surrounding the middle east[a name he invented]...and if in fact these biblical stories are TRUE ..the only place these stories could possibly exist is in............? Eek AFRICA

Massa created his own version of the original man, i.e. The Piltdown Man to prove evolution of MAN derived from Europe but it was proven years later that original man once again derived from........? Eek AFRICA

Massa said the Africans were subhuman incapable of the title HUMAN...yet to populate his slave quarters.....cuz it became against the law to go get more slaves from Africa...massa had to procreate with his female subhumans to produce more slaves....we found out that in fact slaves were HUMAN....and that they originally came from.....?Eek AFRICA!

Massa said the original documentation i.e. written language derived from places in Europe/Asia/Greece...but we found out that written language was originally created by the Egyptians who lived in...... Eek AFRICA!

Massa said that the world was FLAT.....and that when traveling the ocean ships will fall off of the face of the earth if it continues its journey toward the sunrise.....we found out that Egyptians [master shipbuilders] knew all along that our planet is ROUND not flat...and this discovery was uncovered in.....? Eek AFRICA!

Now the controvesry regarding the "myth"...that Asia is the largest continent in the world....even though it shares its plate with Europe which looks like an expanded penisula or small country when viewing it "realistically." And if continents are defined as landmass on a single plate tectonic....and Asia and Europe shares a plate....then Asia and Europe are subcontinents based on this theory. But...some are saying even when dividing Asia from Europe, Asia is STILL larger than Africa by population and surface area. If this is true then the definition of what a continent is ....needs to be revised..But! I don't trust Massa....he lie lie lie...and here's why: Let's look at maps!

Massa said that Anaximander [610 BC-546 BC] was supposedly the first ancient Greek to draw up a map Right? Tell me...what was going on in Greece during this time...eh? It is a fact, ancient Wars involving Greece are MANY...in fact too many to list however, my QUESTION: how is Greece able to produce such human granduer when the COUNTRY itself has been plaqued with Wars up to the 21st century? In order to THINK, you need PEACE. Greek History shows no peace. So how was Anaximader able to achieve this? Him being sooooo smart and all. As indicated before Massa would rather give CREDIT of HUMAN accomplishments to others.....than to ever ADMIT that the African culture he ENSLAVED is responsible for civilizing MANKIND. Why does this matter? I'm getting to it. The so-called creation of "maps" was NOT a new thing...it is rather a "small" thing in terms of Egyptian intellect cuz they were mapping out the UNIVERSE i.e. the costellations[sp]....seen in drawnings on walls in many of their underground SACRED temples.

Getting back to this Asia vs Africa continent thing. As we all KNOW maps are a visual depiction of whatever the focus...be it landmass, ocean, local geographic area etc. It is absolutely impossible to drawn an accurate map of the world...cuz the world is not FLAT...it is curved i.e. opal[sp] [3 dimensional] which means the accuracy of maps [which are 2 deminsional] can be DISTORTED and elevations can be largely exaggerated as well. No one is going around inch by inch recording the actual measurement of landmass in the same way the Verizon phone man goes around in varies locations asking that important question: "can you hear me now?" Impossible! Most maps and globes by large have a certain degree of inaccuracy....and that's a FACT even though they may include parallels and meridian and datelines....they are STILL somewhat distorted in scale accuracy. So another question: Who will benefit by having a larger landmass?

Now as we know, Massa said that the name Atlas derived from an unknown place/source however....let's look at this way...Farnese Atlas a 2nd centry Roman sculpture which depicts the earth as being round and the oldest statue of Titan of Greek mythology is shown as the celestral sphere....Massa said that this knowledge derived from the Greeks.....however, on Egyptians walls the holding up of the Earth Goddess [known as Mut or Lady of Heaven] was there THOUSANDS of years before the invasion of Alexander the Great...when all attributes of Africa life/wisdom was STOLEN by the Greeks and CLAIMED as their own discoveries. Even though the painting of Atlas and Hercules silently indicates that this knowledge derived from them....this SCENE is CLEARLY stolen from the walls of the Egyptian temples cuz the "IMAGE" of "Holding the Earth up" is IDENTICAL....to the holding up Earth Goddess Mut! So...Massa said this derived from the Greeks....when in fact this knowledge derived from....? Eek AFRICA!

My point is....Massa have LIED about so many things when it comes to OUR culture....he rather give credit to his Asian neighbors than to tell the TRUTH....in terms of who WE ARE as a people....who we are as FOUNDERS OF civilization....and who we are as CREATORS in which this world survives and thrives on today! Massa has stated we have no real attributes to this WORLD and society as a whole and yet EVERYTHING that this society thrives on is as a direct RESULT of OUR FINDINGS/DISCOVERIES/CREATIONS......The only thing that massa and his Asian counterparts have thrived on during human geographic time is VIOLENCE, DESTRUCTION and overpowering those who they INVADE......History shows this OVER AND OVER again... What does this have to do with Asia being the largest continent in the world....? cuz Massa lies so much....I need PROOF! High Tech Proof. Not Man-made! Clear satellite depiction from north to south, east to west....without clouds...without man-made distortions....REAL PROOF. Cuz if Massa will lie about the little things AND things he has taken from US...SURELY he WILL show 'nuff lie about the big things. And.....HAVE!

Finally, all I'm really saying is before we are to JUMP comfortably and believe ANY and EVERY thing massa takes ownership of OR tells us what HE know is TRUE, let's use the common sense the universe gives all of us....AND question it REGARDLESS of how convincing the facts are...cuz the one who BLOAST about what he gives/or knows.....really have NOTHING...absolutely NOTHING gainful to offer in wisdom, knowledge or truth... As in this case. But! JMHO....is allBig Grin fro

Koco, if you wish to believe that Africa is larger than Asia, then I'm not gonna interfere... you put wayyyy too much energy and passion into that last post for me to want to take that away from you, baby...
hat

(And I'll do anything to avoid seeing another post featuring that many instances of "massa"...)

I do have a question for someone who's into geography. When they measure square miles, do they adjust for grade (incline & decline)? In other words, a 100' by 100' square plot of hilly land actually has slightly more area than the same size plot of flat land. When geographers determine land area, do they take that into account?

It is what it is! girl BTW: If it wasn't for PASSIONATE Black women....I believe we STILL would be slaves...considering fighting for our FREEDOM was [during that time] wayyyyy too much energy and passion for some brothasBig Grin fro

fro hummmmmmm 19 Just so folks don't get it twisted....when I SHARE a thought or ponder a perspective that is coming from ME... I ain't looking for "I-know-everything-you-can't-tell-me shyte" or the board geniuses to critque my views. If you disagree....you disagree! But I think it's somewhat ARROGANT to assume that I give a fock what you THINK about what's coming out of MY HEAD...cuz it definitely ain't coming out of YOUR HEAD! Last time I looked, it was MY fingers typing on this keyboard....and MY air breathing into MY lungs which process ENERGY...and it is MY passion coming from my SOUL in issues close to MY heart. I share for those to see another side to the ALREADY written in stone European perspective which is very apparent here on this board. But do I comment to those folks when they make their thoughts known? Hell to the Nawl. If I disagree or want to add to their spin I do...but do I make an arrogant comment or insult someone's else spin just cuz...to appear I know otherwise?...And then don't give the otherwise...? Hell to the Nawl. So let me make this very CLEAR....when I share my thoughts on this board...it is for those who are OPEN to look at their world outside the traditional European spin....I ain't talkin' to you so-called-arrogant/obnoxious-if-I don't-know-it-or-have-NOT-read-about-it...it- must-NOT-be-true-GENIUSES! [who the fock are yall...ANYWAY?] I deal with parents JUST LIKE YOU who always complain OR make irrevelant comments but NEVER bring anything substantial to the table to make it better...other than pointing out what you think is WRONG! How snobbish! BTW: I NEVER profess to KNOW everything...but I DO [have a brain and] question EVERYTHING when it comes to my culture via "Massa" and these questions are for those FOLKS out there in cyberspace to question AND ponder as well... I think it's called "open forum"...So when you-know-it-all-can't-tell-you-nothing folks/geniuses see my avartar on a thread....keep moving! Believe me I won't miss a thang...Roll Eyes fro

Been stewing over that since yesterday, huh? lol Like I said before, you are free to believe whatever you want... I'm sure your "Massa" would prefer it that way anyway... I'm sure you wouldn't want to disappoint him.

IMHO, that is F'd up. It misses the mark in so many ways.

I vote: it misses the mark.

I was too busy thinking about how this is an example of something you should NOT do with Photoshop to appreciate the message.
