DeadPresidents:Lols, there are still many codes unknown to us in modern times that Ifa and other great minds of the past knew. With time, some geniuses will discover and develop them in the modern era as well, as things in life occur in cycles. |

DeadPresidents: Thats what Black Panther is for, and that literally had to have the backing of the MCU machine and charismatic leads in Chadwick and Michael B Jordan and piggy backing off the BLM movement and Anti-Trump Sentiment. Otherwise there was very little interest in a Black Panther movie. OG comic nerds like myself have known of Black Panther since childhood when he was married to Storm from Xmen. When I was growing up, the Marvel wonder metal was Adamantium which was what Wolverines skeleton was coated in, not Vibranium which really only gained prominence with Black Panther. The big hitters then were Spiderman, Xmen, Cable/Havok/X-force, The Hulk, and maybe GhostRider. Tony Stark, and the rest of the avengers were B-league guys that would typically show up featuring in a Spiderman story. Iron-man used to have the deadest cartoon on the Cadbury breakfast TV roster those days, with Spiderman being number 1. Robert Downey Junior literally changed the game for Marvel despite playing one of their deadest characters, facilitating an environment that would allow a super black IP like Black Panther to be successful. Prior to that, nobody would be going for such Black film series, and I would be very surprised of we get another Black hero movie that is as successful anytime soon. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

As an atheist who rejects the notion of a "God" and despises religion for it's role in the segregation and decimation of humankind, I'm always fascinated with the concept of morality across different societies in our modern civilization. Of what is right and what is wrong. How societies different from each other and how to look at and judge another society whose set of rules and morality are perceived to be of "inferior standards". For example, in predominantly Muslim countries, you see a complete subjugation of women, for them it is embedded into the code of their morality that women are definitely inferior to men, so their set of laws center around the complete restrictions of women rights. Women can't vote, can't drive, can't obtain education, her dress as she wishes, has no choice in her choice of a marriage partner etc and the funny aspect is that there are a substantial amount of women amongst them who completely embrace this notion of their only role in society being to serve their men around them. Away from the Moslem societies, you still have an endurance of archaic traditional inhumane practices that persists till today and has fought off modernization. You have cultures in Africa where albinos and twins are still killed. You have cultures in east Asia where widows are killed by burning together with the corpse of her husband. So if her husband dies, his wife has to die too. This practice is advocated by a subsection of the Hinduism religion. The British tried to end this practice but faced stiff opposition. You can read about this here. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sati_(practice) You also have this Colombian culture where young boys are made to have sex with animals before they can sleep with their first females. You can read about it here too. https://www.termpaperwarehouse.com/essay-on/Bestiality-And-Zoophilia-Of-Cartagena-Colombia/FJCY384WVNT You also have a subsect of the Yoruba culture where a first son can inherit his father's titles, properties and wives including his own mother who becomes his wife. When you see all these and realize that for these groups, tribes and people, they believe soo strongly that they are justified in what they do because it's all their people have ever known, it inspires a curiosity as I said earlier,m to the concept of morality. Is there such a thing as good and bad? If there is, who are the arbiters of what is supposed to be good and what is supposed to be bad? many questions as to the makeup of modern human civilization.

donjazzet:The question of good and bad is aged long. No one can define good on his own because it is subjective. Even a moral atheist cannot answer this question. So what do we do? If there is no God (Supreme Being) then there is no justice on earth so then the question of good and bad cannot be answered. It is justice that can validates what is good against what is bad. It is justice that admonishes good and punishes bad. The moral consciousness in you that drives the passion to do good is the God consciousness at work. He has also given us His moral code, our consciences that tell us whether we are doing good or not. |

Dude is a charisma machine. Robert Downey did well to boost Iron Man's appeal like you said his counterpart in the comics was as dry as AY's jokes. Like you Spiderman and the Hulk were the characters I knew from marvel plus the fantastic 4 to some extent due to the Thing cartoon they showed back in the day. nihilistjnr: 1 Like |

BlueRayDick: Well, for me personally, this knowledge has largely been via nigerian media and anecdotal word of mouth. There are various Nollywood movies that has presented this as fact, I vividly recall a certain "superstory" programme whose entire plot was centered around this particular tradition. Also I've had a Yoruba associate of old confirming that this practice do happen in certain places in Ondo and osun. But furthermore a little research seems to corroborate aspects of this as seen below.

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by raumdeuter: 3:10pm On Aug 24, 2023 |
BlueRayDick: What he is referring to is Opo sisu And its mainly to protect the women as in those days women are not economically empowered and depend on their man to provide for them Even those who sell in the market, its what their husband farms that they sell, so when there is no husband to farm, kids are still young, they have a way to provide for her and her kids So if the man dies, she can choose to marry either the younger brother of the deceased or any relative. I don't know/never heard about wives marrying sons and sons marrying mother since sons naturally take care of their mothers. 1 Like |

donjazzet: Okay good. Do u know why I asked u what it is called and the source of ur information? It is becasue I saw a misrepresentation in ur post and I wanted to know if it was ur source that was wrong or u were the one that innocently or knowingly misrepresented the fact. You also have a subsect of the Yoruba culture where a first son can inherit his father's titles, properties and wives including his own mother who becomes his wife. It is a taboo in Yoruba culture for a son to have a sexual relationship with his mother. So when I saw ur post above talking about a son inheriting his father's properties , wives and his own mother; I knew that is one strong misrepresentation of facts. Please modify ur post, there's nothing babaric in a family member marrying a widow. Almost all major tribes in Nigeria had such history in their culture. 6 Likes |

Spy360: @ the bolded last sentence, therein lies the crux and contradiction of the issue. The christian God seems very different from the Hindu gods or the ifa gods or the Baha'i gods and so on. Look at this picture below, you can see the other biggest religions in the world. With each of them having different moral codes, some of which are in direct confliction with each other. Pork is prohibited in Islamic religion but accepted in Hinduism and Buddhism. Cattle beef is accepted in Islamic religion but strictly forbidden in Hinduism. I just gave you an example of a ridiculous aspect of Hinduism one where their gods direct the widows of a deceased husband to also burn herself together with her husband's corpse. Where is the God there? As a matter of fact, I think the idea of a "God" with a set of rules for humanity is what is directly responsible for the inhumane standard of morality prevalent in many societies. I actually think "God" (the man-made theological invention as a means of rationalising the unknown) is responsible for humans being "bad".
