Not trying start shit (Christianity)

[nawlinsn931]

If it was in Africa (Ethiopia) before Europe, which means it was before Cesare Borgiawas painted as a depiction, what was it called?
Again I’m not trying pick on Christians, just asking a question
I’ve heard this many times on other message boards without explanation/answer

Yes, Christianity was in Africa long before it reached much of Europe
. It had a presence in North Africa in the first or second century AD, with the Ethiopian kingdom adopting it as an official religion in the 4th century, centuries before it became the religion of the Roman Empire

According to tradition, Christianity was brought to Egypt by St. Markaround 60 AD.
St Mark wrote based upon Peter
I know Jesus wasn’t white, I’ve always heard that descriptions and paintings were loosely based upon different figures and also any images were a sin. How did we end up here?

Here's the thing. Black folks here in the US love to use this argument, but for us it's not relevant. Most of us came here from West Africa, where, Christianity was NOT a thing at that time. Our people use this argument because it's easier than just admitting the fact that it was forced on us during slavery. We'll denounce every single thing about what those folks did to us, except for that. Those types of conversations make them uncomfortable though.

That and ignoring the horrific history that is Islam
We were spiritual people from as far back as I’ve been able to trace
There are few villages that denounce Christianity And Islam because of the negative influence

I know we like to say christianity was forced on us but why is it that we never look at it as christianity in the wrong hands as in they perverted it in justify slavery?

I keep asking my mom why she’s Christian even AFTER reading the Bible and how they treat women

Aren’t most religions a mask for slavery

There is that angle


I tend to look at it from the perspective that we had spirituality back then not necessarily Christianity. IIRC, Christianity is like a stew of numerous pagen ideals and a bastardization of "Ancient African" spiritual ideals.
(Set, Horus, Osiris and such)

And that just shows the true nature of cacs, to pervert nearly everything they touch (abusing the planet, other ethnicities, our music, religion....etc)

Which makes sense because the “holy trinity” is a rip off itself
Jesus was based upon multiple historical figures

Of course it was in Africa before the cracker. Christianity is nothing but stolen stories from Egyptian and Mesopotamian spirituality systems. Egypt is in Africa and Mesopotamia is basically where Iraq is which is near Egypt/Africa.
