Nah, the concept of a sun god is well established.

you're really trying too hard.
Sun god.

OK

And?

Various cultures around the world worshiped the sun at one point or the other.

Religion has been derived as a response to the unknown independently all around the world. To deny this is to signify your ignorance.

Nope. Much more likely that it came out of Africa and spread....just like humans and language :dead:

Go to the library bro

You can't source something that predates papyrus, please stop :dead:

I don't need to. Both of you have consistently made unsupported claims throughout this thread. Just name an academic source for these claims

He was blue. Dark skinned but not a humanly color doesn't matter. How are you trying to school me and you don't even know what you're talking about.

The word Krishna literally means black in Sanskrit


He's described as being black



He's depicted as being black in Murtis and paintings

But he's not black?:heh: Blue isn't a human color either:heh:

You're the one who hasn't known what they're talking about in this thread........I've corrected you on multiple occasions

Except we have proof that religions are independently derived all over the world.

Remember, in the face of ignorance is religion around the world.

It doesn't take much. Groups of people don't know where earthquakes come from or why theres massive floods and people around the world believe in different concepts.

So?

All that is arbitrary.

You observing or thinking has nothing to do with understanding how the universe works or the pursuit of understanding that.

Many wisemen in eastern religions have reflected on life..meditation and deep thought is the Key..it would be best to study them instead of looking for NASA for answers..

human life. Not any other form of life.

And "reflecting" on life doesn't tell you how biology works without experimentation and actual manual work. Sitting on your ass doing thought experiments doesn't cut it.

..meditation and deep thought is the Key.
more pseudo-intellgent bullshyt. You're equating this poetic babble (since we know you can't hold a science candle up to anything of actual effort) to offering some profound incite.

What you're talking about is the investment in questioning existence, not what existence is or how it works.

.it would be best to study them instead of looking for NASA for answers..
Except aristotle wouldn't build a space ship

1. fukk the old testament.

2. Gobekli Tepei doesn't change anything. People worship different shyt, and you can't even prove its an "african" settlement.


They didn't "worship different shyt" which is why I know you are lost

And why would the Old Testament, which was written by Levantines. say we all migrated out of Africa and be right 2000 years before scientist confirmed it?

Why was the European Crusades so intent on raiding Ancient Egyptian artifacts?


""Like most behaviors that are found in societies throughout the world, religion must have been present in the ancestral human population before the dispersal from Africa 50,000 years ago. Although religious rituals usually involve dance and music, they are also very verbal, since the sacred truths have to be stated. If so, religion, at least in its modern form, cannot pre-date the emergence of language. It has been argued earlier that language attained its modern state shortly before the exodus from Africa. If religion had to await the evolution of modern, articulate language, then it too would have emerged shortly before 50,000 years ago.""


"Writing is thought to have been first invented in either Sumeria or Ancient Egypt and was initially used for accounting. Soon after, writing was used to record myth. The first religious texts mark the beginning of religious history. The Pyramid Texts from ancient Egypt are one of the oldest known religious texts in the world, dating to between 2400–2300 BCE.[42][43][44] Writing played a major role in sustaining and spreading organized religion. In pre-literate societies, religious ideas were based on an oral tradition, the contents of which were articulated by shamans and remained limited to the collective memories of the society's inhabitants."
