Nah I know that,

I was pointing out that the only place we saw the word was in Latin.

Africa as a word did not exist anywhere else. That's why I initially asked him in what language does Afri mean black man
I never said "Afri means black man." I stated Afri was a black man.

On Afri, "this name seems to have originally referred to a native Libyan tribe, an ancestor of modern Berbers." -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa

That quote from Wikipedia shows the account in that book I posted above has some truth.

By the time you read the whole book, Google many claims the guy makes, compare it with related books and articles written by some other authors, you will see his account is truthful.

Oh... you're actually even quoting a nairaland post to back your submission. grin

Aite cool bro. Enjoy.
Lol. Yes now. The book even has a PDF version. Is Nairaland a poor source of information?

Does that matter? If I posted the conclusion of an Israeli professor of history from his book on the history of humanity, who says that humanity (homo sapiens) started from East Africa; would that carry more weight as a piece of evidence, when you don't even know the content of the literature?

The real question, are there pieces of evidence supporting the claims? Not the medium.

So how is this different from what we have always seen?

Oh ok. The guy's theories are always clashing like color riot LOL. Africa as a word though is just a latinized version of an indigenous word likely of Berber origin, probably in use before the Romans got to Africa.

However i agree with you that the whole "named after a man in the 100 yr of homo sapiens history" theory is B.S.
Clear use of retrofitting here, not so different from how backronyms are used.

Not sure what your answer is, but David Beckham played with all three. The guy in your pic looks left footed though.

Your assumption, bros. I only reject concepts in any religion, whether it's old or new, that are not consistent, not reasonable, and lacks veracity.

I have retained the ones that are useful in Islam and Christianity and discarded the rest (though that's in the majority). I have Qur'an and the Bible in my library, along with other religious books. Only a few parts of the Bible and Qur'an are useful; the rest serves no real purpose other than for mind control.

There are elements of truth in religions, science, philosophies, atheism, etc.

I feel nothing is the ultimate or has answers to all life's questions; however, the use of the brain is supreme, and holy books come last in the pecking order.

Yes. However, I feel there's more to life than that. As an avid reader and curious person, seeking this kind of knowledge is a key aspect of life (for me). So, after the day's job, I resume reading of books.
