The whole point is documented according to your understanding is a colonial construct.

It does not have to be written down to be "documented" that is a notion your colonised mind cannot fathom

Our oral tradition according to you and your colonial masters are UNDOCUMENTED.
They are not

The European mind may lack the capacity for such psychic Documentation because it has allowed the faculty to atrophy through excessive reliance on pen and paper.
People like you adopt and adapt that mindset and see it as the arbiter of reality.

Collective biographies are documented in the mind just as reliably as they are on paper.


With your view on oral transmission of history what has been achieved considering that little is known even as africans.
Anyway stick with your views, I stick with mine .

Document means to record
A record can take infinite forms some of which shall emerge with time

DNA is a document, electronic pulses,braille ,sculpture are records etc

The human mind is a place of record or Documentation that is what you fail to grasp

A lot is known ,maybe you don't because your mind has been colonized and you are ignorant of your heritage.

Have you seen people worshiping God through medusa or using her name to fellowship or seen a big book written all because of medusa.
I know you choose to be destroyed when the end comes but don't use your stupidity to take your soul to hell.Repent at least PLEASE
Have you ever seen people worshipping God through Saphira and Ananias? Have you seen a whole book dedicated to them? They're simply part of the jesus myths just like Medusa and others are part of the Zeus and Hercules myth.

Bumped into this. A good read
Who knows the story of Medusa? Yes that ugly lady with the hair of snakes. The Gorgon who men dared not look at else they turn to stone. Do you know her real story?! Well I'll tell you!

When I was in school, I was given a project titled Myths and Legends. Well naturally I settled for Greek mythology and Medusa hit my interest.
Thanks so much for this enlightenment

I always thought she was evil and all but this is
the true story.

So Medusa was the most beautiful girl in her town. Her hair shone like gold. All men wanted her but she never gave in. She caught the eye of Poseidon the god of the sea and didn't give him the time of day. Well what did he do? He raped Medusa in Athena's temple. Athena was the goddess of wisdom and war.

Now the sad part was Athena was so enraged by what had happened that she cursed Medusa. Not the man who raped her no! Cursed the poor girl who was raped. Turned her into a creature that no man would ever look at again without dying and turned her beautiful hair into snakes.

Now some have claimed that Athena cursed Medusa to protect her but in all my research and even the writings of the poet, the story was consistent.

When I found out the truth behind Medusa, I changed my project and turned it into a tribute called 'Misunderstood'. I recreated her tombstone, changed her garments and created a pendant with her face on it.

Needless to say that was my best project in school and it was on display.

Now to bring it home. Isn't that what happens these days? Both here and abroad? A girl is raped and instead of going for her attackers, you blame her and slut-shame her. Claim she brought it on herald?

When you think of Medusa you think of an ugly Gorgon.

When I think of Medusa I think of a beautiful lonely girl the world failed. Just as the world is failing women today.

Poseidon did not rape medusa he seduced her.looks like the atlantians were players,Poseidon broke Athena's heart since she can't do anything to him she took it out on medusa.that is what i know from my small knowledge of Greek myths.
Poseidon is a marlian. These women been jealous since time immemorial.

Don't let that story mislead you,it's obvious you haven't heard the story of an occultic lady who said make up,nails fixing and artificial hair was created by Medusa, I don't wanna talk too much,do you ever wonder why designer Versace used Medusa head as their logo?this world is deeper than we could imagine
Carnality and Worldliness has destroyed many people... funny enough they called Seers foolish people and laugh at spiritual people who know hidden things

This is exactly why foreigners were able to colonize you, because you believe everything without evidence and ask no questions.
Like I said, in future, your religion, jesus and god will all be studied in schools as relics of history.
lol


look athew... you are really ignorant Chai...i pray you experience something that will make you need supernatural help, that's when you will know you are being watched... and besides, why I'm I even arguing with you, some people are occultic they just try to debunk this things... no wonder the devil is succeeding, he already defeated them in their mind...

I've experienced first hand the supernatural both good and bad... my friend if you are diabolical, you are in bondage, I've come to observe MOST people who debunk this things are OFTEN diabolical...

sir... you are ignorant and let me bust your head... no matter what you say,billions of people have believed in Christ and billions will continue too, the word of God abides forever ... have you seen a Reinhard boonke 's crusade ground before with thousand of people from every walks of life... are you trying to tell me you are more knowledgeable or better than the millions of people present there?...

you are the one who is delusional... seek knowledge and stop speaking with ignorance...

peace.

things of the spiritual realm have no evidence, the only evidence you will ever get is if you experience them first hand...


people ehn, that's why you believe you can work your way to the top with a carnal mind... lol, you can be rich to an extent but you wanna get to the TOP I mean where people will wanna worship you as a god...you must experience this things... it's more than you can imagine... powers are controlling the earth even YOU, yes YOU...
believe anything you wanna believe but if it's that easy to be rich with all the hard work most people put in their huzzles they are supposed to be richer than Bill Gates... I'm sure it's people like you who will say there is nothing like illuminati nor church of Satan... well it's normal during the time of Jesus self not everyone believed him and as it's written the whole world lied in the power of the wicked one.

believe whatever you wanna believe... take care.

I'm not bothered because I don't believe in its existence.
You should be more worried though, because I don't wake up thinking how I won't offend god so he doesn't throw me in hell.
If you tell a lie, and the supposed rapture happens, you that have been preaching to me all this while will end up there with me. cheesy

Like I said, I don't acknowledge its existence, so I'm not bothered.

Nigerians just love their Oyinbo masters cheesy They congregate here to embrace and celebrate Greek myths and gods they’ve never seen nor touched. They love foreign myths and fables even more than the Oyinbos grin
If they suddenly find out that Medusa was actually a black woman they’ll suddenly reject and disbelieve the myth, LOL

Post stories about their own local ancestral gods and spirits and watch them throw insult at the writers. Tell them Europe was named after a the black goddess Europa and watch them argue to death cheesy

Lack of self love is truly the death of the Black people, smh!
