The Annunaki and Homosexuality - Why it is Natural

[thetruth90]

White people have poisoned most of our people's minds with colonialism and enslavement.

The common ridiculous notions that some "hetero"sexual people (namely men) have regarding homosexuality makes many of our most intelligent "leaders" look and sound ridiculous. One of which being that homosexuality is not natural.

The common theme of both of enslavement and colonialism was the spreading of Abrahamic religion namely the Bible and the Koran (books that were developed by sick cultures not our own). Those books are the root of homophobia not only on the African continent but throughout the cultures of the World. They turned most of our people against something that was not only seen as normal, but even divine in indigenous societies (in precolonial America and Africa). 

The reason why gay people are seen as divine is because of the story of the Annunaki as told by the Zulu. The original people on Earth prior to the Annunaki were unisex, both genders (or really a divine woman).

The Male Chromosome is a mutation of the X Chromosome.

During this time people were at a higher consciousness and communicated telepathically. This was the period referred to as Atlantis (which Nile Valley civilization was a satellite colony of, and some of these Gods migrated to Nile Valley civilization after Atlantis crashed). When the Annunaki turned humans from one gender into male and female those later humans who were "gay" or "homosexual" still had remnants of that same higher consciousness of Atlantis (both feminine and masculine aspects of the brain; and is for this reason that many gays are often times visibly more intuitive then their hetero counterparts/our pineal glands are more functioning/This is why homosexuals are known to create and dominate so many of our cultural relics such as music, food, acting etc etc etc);

and for that reason homosexuals were saw as priest and rulers of those pre-white man times. The aboriginal Americans (WHO WERE LARGELY AFRICOID MIGRANTS)

(some people still need this type of validation)

called gay people "two spirit" people and gave them a high place in society (priest, rulers, medicine men, counsel etc etc). Every single Native American community recognized the different types of "homosexuals" throughout both continents.

The Zulu have an word for a third gender, which absolutely defecates on the notion of a strictly heterosexual ancient Africa that traumatized Afro-Americans (of both continents and islanders) have fallen in love with.

They are certainly not the only ones. The Yoruba of Nigeria have the ancient word for homosexual "adofuro"/anal sex. Yan daudu is the word for homsexual identity in the Nigerian Hausas. More recently you had a homosexual king in Uganda  King Mwanga II who was beloved by his subjects until the white man came in with the Bible. Then he becomes an embarrassment. The Azande with their ancient tradition of boy wives in the Central African Republic. The hunter gatherer Khoi Khoi when they inhabited Zimbabwe were openly expressed their homosexual nature in cave art. 

Isn't it ironic that the former president of Zimbabwe (whom I have tremendous respect for) denounced homosexuality as an abomination, when the former inhabitants of the country (the Khoi Khoi) actively engaged in it as shown above. 

Ancient Kemet

"Symbolism and the social engineering of fear is stronger than ever as it either keeps one away from the truth or entangled by the lie. 

Someone made a valid point that the symbol or representation of the homosexual movement matches that of the chakra system that is present within each of us. The fear or phobia of the association with those who practice homosexuality will strategically instill fear of the engagement of alignment or evolution of oneself just by the color correlation alone. 

Those of particular religious beLIEfs fear the serpent due to it's "deceiving of man". Yet they boldly trust/cling to the institutions of "healing" that are represented by the symbol of two serpents traveling up a winged staff, Not realizing that the symbol REALLY represents the kundalini energy as it rises up the spinal column in the self awakening process. The fear of the serpent clearly makes one cling to healing processes outside of self, when the true serpent awaits to heal the body on its own. 

These symbols are often overlooked and unspoken of yet very powerful symbols when used appropriately. Maybe that's why the ancestors left behind symbols rather than a language that was not of their own."

This is the basis of your entire thought process regarding homosexuality. 




Your understanding of homosexuality is rooted entirely on what Caucasians have taught you. You all don't have any doctrine against homosexuality coming out of Africa. If there was ever such a document on record then the Negroes at Sa-Neter studios would etch that doctrine in the sidewalk payments along their Harlem streets as a logical basis for their hatred against homosexuality. Not a one of them have ever produced any doctrine against it, so if the 42 ideals of Maat really stated that then we would be aware of it. It doesn't however! You broken bucks are so desperate to reinforce your sexual insecurities, and I think that this a major contributor to mental illness in our communities. 

---

Now I do believe that many Caucasians who are rich and homosexuals are at the top of their evil social order, but what does that have to do with the natural occurrence of this divinity when it's shown in our people? Come on now make sense.. If you don't know what it's about then say that you don't know what it's about (which is because you are not meant/meaning that you're not that special) don't resort to backwoods church clergy babble.

Notice how Sa-Nater cut the guy on the phone off once he started getting into the metaphysics of gay sex as it relates to opening up the pineal gland. This is the stuff that they don't want us to know.

Looks like you are living in the past! SMH! You don't get it do you? I/We don't respond to "Caucasians" and "Negroids". Never had. Those antiquated labels are just triggers. I don't play those games. If you want to have an educational or logical discussion. I am game, if not take it somewhere else or to someone else. I am out of your league...FYI. Just so you know.

In the early seventeenth century, their efforts to conquer the Ndongo

kingdom of the Mbundu (Umbundu) were stymied by the inspired leadership of a warrior woman

named Nzinga (c. 1581-1663). Nzinga had become ngola, or king, by succeeding her brother, which

was not unusual in a matrilineal society like the Mbundu’s. Less lypical was the fact that she had

ordered her nephew’s death to prevent him from claiming his father’s title. Nzinga proceeded to

organize a guerilla army and personally led her warriors into battle. She successfully outmaneuvered

the Portuguese for nearly four decades (Sweetman 1971,1984: 39-47).

In the late 1640s, a Dutch military attache observed firsthand what must have struck him as the

strange organization of her court. As ngola, Nzinga was not “queen” but “king” of her people. She

ruled dressed as a man, surrounded by a harem of young men who dressed as women and were her

“wives.” Wherever she appeared, her subjects fell to their knees and kissed the ground (Dapper

1670: 238). Nzinga managed to preserved Ndongo independence for a generation

Yes, while the practice was of course not unknown in Egypt, the ideal, the virtuous choice, the right
choice, to make was to eschew it. There was no valorization of practitioners or practice, unlike some
admired Greek societies, where it was considered as among the higher ideals. It is no accident that the
longest conversation in Plato's Symposium is on the nature of homosexual love. This is a key
difference between Africa and Europe. Africa in general assigns little special place to homosexuality.
INDIVIDUAL practitioners might do this and that, but cultures in general, treated it as marginal overall.
Note below however the high place homosexuality as such had, and the extremes to which it was pushed by
the much hailed and admired Spartans, as a high ideal in their society and culture, and also among the
much hailed and admired Athenians, as among their high ideals and/or practices. There were certain forms
to be followed in practicing the ideal, such as maintaining master-servant status but the cultural
outlook was different from that of Egypt's explicit statement against, an injunction endorsed by the
highest religious teachings and authorities.

In ancient Greece homosexuality played an important role.
QUOTE:

"While little is known of the sexual practices of the Kassites, Hyksos or Aryans, that is not the case with the Greeks. The extent of the prevalence and social importance of homosexual behavior among the ancient Greeks is so thoroughly documented that it is possible to get a clear picture not only of the character of homosexual relationships in Greeks society, but the important role homosexuality played in that society.. the fragmentary glimpses we have of homosexual behavior among the other Indo-European peoples can be recognized as revealing a unified pattern of sexual customs and beliefs that seems to have prevailed among all the Indo-European ancestors of modern Europeans."
--Neill, James (2009). The origins and role of same-sex relations in human societies. Mcfarland:


Pedophilia and homosexuality was common among the Spartans. Wives and male lovers were shared between Spartan men. Pederasty or use of youth for homosexual purposes was well established among the Spartans, Greeks and Cretans.

[quotes from various scholars:]

"..young boys between the ages of 6 and 16 were organized in 'packs' and 'herds' and placed under the supervision of young adult Spartans. This supervision was sometimes seen as surrogate fathering and one marker of its activity ".. was the instutionalization of pederasty. After the age of twelve, each Spartan teenager was expected to receive a young adult warrior as his lover.. Punishment for various infractions such as suffering silently under discipline was sometimes made on the youth's older lover, for having failed to educate his beloved properly."
--From: The Spartans: the world of the warrior-heroes of ancient Greece, from utopia to crisis and collapse
Paul Cartledge, Overlook Press, 2003.pg 69-70

"Aspects of Spartan society conduced less to heterosexuality than to homosexuality. In his Laws, Plato wrote that homosexuality resulted from the (male) dining groups and from male nudity in gymnasia. Records of Sparta from the classical period seem to refer to homosexual boyfriends at least as often as to wives. particularly revealing, are some assertions by Xenophon on this subject."
--From: Sparta By Michael Whitby. 2002. Taylor and Francis: p. 93

"Sparta too institutionalized homosexual relations between mature men and adolescent boys, as well as between adult women and girls.. many aspects of Spartan homosexuality and marriage customs point to tribal origins. Participation was mandatory for all youth of good character. There were ordeals- a common feature of tribal initiation.. Even after marriage, men lived in men's houses, not with their wives. Wives and male lovers were shared with age-mates."
---From: The construction of homosexuality. David F. Greenberg. University of Chicago Press. 1990. p.107

Both homosexuality and pedophilia were institutionalized among the Greeks per scholars:
[quotes from various scholars:]
FROM: Homosexuality in the ancient world - Page 80. Wayne R. Dynes, Stephen Donaldson - 1992 -

quotes from Dynes and Donaldson:
"In short, I have no doubt that the evidence of Xenophon and Plutarch is sufficient to establish the important conclusion that pederasty in Sparta was institutionalised." In the "Politics of Spartan Pederasty" in Homosexuality in the ancient world, pg 23, various documentation from the Spartan era ranges from rock-cut graffiti, to bronze figurines of decidedly masculine "girls", to depictions of anal copulation on drinking cups, to terracotta votive masks depicting unbearded 'Youth' and bearded adult 'Warriors' found in the sanctuary at Orthia.".


Yet others argue that the ties created by pederasty extended to the networks of influence and governance.
"Pederasty, in other words, could have acted at Spartan in the age of Xenophon, as it certainly did in fourth-century Crete, as a means of recruiting the political elite,"
---------------


Homosexuality was commonly recognized and accepted in Greece, and suggest a common pattern among Indo-European peoples. As one historian notes:
"One of the intriguing features of the Greeks is their active interest in homosexuality... Yet the adherents of this solution have not attempted an explanation pf this puzzling phenomenon and they have ignored the existence of Indo-European (henceforth: I-E) parallels." pg 49

pg 50:
"The bachelors had recourse to sodomy, a practice which was not reprobated but was actually a custom of the country- and a custom in the true sense, i.e., fully sanctioned by male society and universally practised."


Historian Charles Freeman's "The Greek Achievement" (1999) holds that homosexuality had an influential place in some Greek institutions. According to Freeman:

"The symposia provided the arena for much of this sexual activity. These were highly ritualized affairs whose origins lay in the banqueting halls of aristocratic warriors. The men were garlanded and reclined one or two to a couch around a central table.. there is little evidence that symposia were normally used to discuss politics. Rather the opposite; the longest conversation in Plato's Symposium is about the nature of homosexual love."
(Freeman: pg 299, pg 283-304)


Other historians find similar patterns:
"Male homosexuality was also a prominent feature of Classical Athens. It was widely practiced and tolerated. Athenian law disenfranchised a citizen who had prostituted his body to another male, but nothing was done to males who engaged in homosexual love with male prostitutes or other adult males for love or pleasure. The law did not eliminated male prostitution but ensured that male prostitutes would be foreigners, not Athenian citizens."

Mutwa has also discovered that reptilian aliens dwell among us, and some white people agree ..

As for "gay" animals they are not so at all. What you generally have are outliers, or anomalies, or immatures
at play. Among millions of animals there will always be some outliers, anomalies or marginals. In most instances,
so-called "gay beasts" go on to assume their normal functions, with those of opposite sex. Among humans in various
parts of the world there have been outliers and anomalies, and marginal exceptions that have been tolerated.
But in only some societies are said outliers or marginal exceptions viewed as equal to the mainstream pattern,
or given equal time or significance in power or influence within that culture.

Homosexuals have always been tolerated at some level, if only as exceptions and marginal outliers-
and in some cultures more than that- well accepted and tolerated. But as far as marriage and procreation,
few cultures rank practitioners as equal or normative to the dominant heterosexual pattern in the culture.
"The West" is trying to overturn this basic pattern. It is attempting to move beyond live and let live
with things like same sex unions given equal footing across the board.

Apparently Zulu shaman has secret knowledge of various Caucasoid aliens in Africa...

thetruth90 says:
The reason why gay people are seen as divine is because of the story of the Annunaki as told by the Zulu. The original people on Earth prior to the Annunaki were unisex, both genders (or really a divine woman).

The only thing wrong with the story of Annunaki, with various claims of lost temples, pyramids and palaces in southern Africa
200,000 years ago, is that these mysterious buildings and artifacts have never been found. Assorted claimants can offer
no credible evidence, nor credible witnesses, nor witness documentation contemporary with the colorful priests allegedly
flitting back and forth across the ancient landscape. Their accounts are nowhere to be found. Claimants like white
writer M. Tellinger, point to relatively recent stone calendar circles from the 1600s, claiming they go back 200,000
years. Having few witnesses, or ancient witness documentation, or credible archaeological evidence, Tellinger tries to
work around the giant holes in his theory by claiming that the secrets were revealed to him by Zulu shaman Credo Mutwa.

This is the same Credo Mutwa who in his earlier book "My People My Africa," was advocating an accommodation with apartheid.
Certainly the secret revelation of Mutwa puts things on a religious plane, which is fine as far as religious belief.
But it is not credible as far as African history.

According to white Tellinger, the ancient "Adams Calendar" was created by "Caucasoid" deity Enki. But Enki exhibits very little
"gayness." In fact his legend shows him seducing a variety of females. Now one possible "gay" tie-in is that he gets
hisself pregnant by ingesting his own semen. But even this is not necessarily a "gay thing" and since he has no vagina or
womb to deliver his self-induced pregnancy, a piteous goddess (female) helps out the Caucasoid dude, and takes on the semen,
so as to deliver an assorted brood. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enki

Exactly what all this has to do with Africa in any credible historical sense is unknown, and Africa's most ancient
culture in the region, the San, have a religious framework that is nothing like the Caucasoid shennigans of Enki.
It could be argued that if the above is a religious belief then it should be accepted. Fine, but if this is so, then equal
time should also be given to beliefs about mystical Atlantis, or mysterious "Chariots of the Gods" where light-skinnad
aliens descend into Africa, to build pyramids and palaces and give the i'gnant negro tribes enlightenment.

Sure, but Nzinga's case only confirms the above about outliers, anomalies and marginal exceptions. Hers was
a temporary outlier performance, a role play, that emphasized that she was just as strong a ruler
as any man. This role play was logical given women's roles at the time, and aided her political agenda.
But after the role play performance was over, things returned to normal. Joan of Arc likewise dressed
as a man to aid recruitment to her political plans, but after the game ran its course, things returned
to normal- again outliers, exceptions and temporary anomalies, before normalcy returned. No queen
after Nzinga did likewise, nor did female leaders in the post-Joan wars after, get up on horses and ride
about the battlefield as Joan of Arc did. The temporary performance was just that.

thetruth90 says:
called gay people "two spirit" people and gave them a high place in society (priest, rulers, medicine men, counsel etc etc). Every single Native American community recognized the different types of "homosexuals" throughout both continent.

Fair enough, but 2 points to consider.

First, not everyone who dressed or acted as a member of the opposite sex was gay. Most tribes recognized men who preferred to do stuff women did and vice versa, and created spaces for them in their societies. Some of these people went on to normally take spouses of the opposite sex. SOME were gay, others were not.


Second, Every Indian society did NOT give "gay" people a high place in their society. SOME Indian tribes recognized "two-spirit" people, and granted them tolerance, and some special ritual roles, but they did not necessarily grant them a high place in the culture- special ritual slots perhaps, but overall prestigious? Not necessarily. Its a diverse picture, and as noted previously above, some 2-spirits were not gay. The Lakota or "Sioux" oft seen as among the more tolerant, sometimes placed the "two spirit people" particularly the men who were seen as weaker and more effeminate, APART from the main gathering of warriors- and put them near the camp of women, which was often not as well cared for, and considered LESS PRESTIGIOUS than the mainstream warrior camp.

The picture is mixed. The anthropological literature shows mixed/switch gendered people as held in esteem AT TIMES, but it ALSO shows the opposite- ridicule and scorn. THis is the flip side we seldom hear about. FOr example:

"Alongside the sources that refer to berdaches as honored or accepted, there are others that describe negative responses. The Papago "scorned" berdaches;l3S the Cocopa "apparently disliked" them.136 The Choctaws held them "in great contempt,"137 the Seven Nations "in the most sovereign contempt." m The Klamath subjected berdaches to "scorn and taunting;" m the Sioux "derided" them.140 Pima berdaches were ridiculed, though not otherwise sanctioned,141 as were Mohave berdaches who claimed to possess the genitals of the opposite sex.“2 The Apache treated berdaches respectfully when they were present, but ridiculed them behind their backs.143 Although the Zuni accepted their berdache, "there was some joking and laughing about his ability to attract the young men to his home."144 In some groups, berdaches' partners were also ridiculed or despised...

Such a distinction is meaningful because, as we already noted, not all berdaches were homosexual, and not all individuals who engaged in homosexual acts were berdaches... Among the Mohave, ridicule focused on the male berdache's claims to have a female anatomy rather than on his supposed cowardice. Mohave berdaches themselves teased other men for being cowardly,14" something they would not have done had they themselves been vulnerable to this accusation. Sometimes a berdache's partners were ridiculed, even though they did engage in combat.."

WHat you say seems incorrect or misleading on two counts.

1) There need not be an explicit doctrine if the activity in question is seen as marginal- the
outlier, the anomaly, the temporary exception, which some African societies tolerated- live and let live.
THis is the crucial key. In contrast, in parts of "the West" things have moved beyond this to actively embracing
and PROMOTING certain things. No traditional African society for example has given equal time and equal weight
to same sex marriage as it gives to traditional male-female relationships. Again, are there individuals,
cults, secret societies etc etc doing this and that? Sure. But they remain marginal and/or insignificant to
the main cultural ideals and norms of those traditional societies. Being on the margins, and understood
by the society as such, no explicit law is necessarily needed. When Nzinga dressed up as a man to demonstrate
the competence of her rule, everyone understood she was doing a temporary performance. In times, things
would return to the accepted norm.


2) There is a clear holding against homosexuality in Egyptian ideals. While homosexuality was known in Egypt,
and in some places tolerated,the major thrust of Egyptian thought, the ideal of the virtuous man was to eschew
homosexuality, which was considered to be impure and defiling. THus the Egyptians did publish a "doctrine" of sorts
against homosexuality, as the data below shows. This does not mean homosexuality did not happen- it did- but
that the highest ideals of the society were set AGAINST IT, and the ancient Kemetians of Africa, put that in writing.


DATA - quote:

"Book of the Dead – The Book of the Dead is a compilation of funerary (tomb) texts, gathered together from the 18th-21st Dynasties (1552-945 B.C.), although it derives from earlier sources. These spells were meant to preserve and protect the body, particularly from terrifying demons who were believed to inhabit the region before reaching the blessed kingdom of Osiris. Chapter 125, titled “The Protestation of Guiltlessness,” included two sets of “negative confessions” that the deceased was to declare before Osiris and forty-two other gods, to show that he or she was worthy to be granted eternal life.20 The first series states straightforwardly certain actions that the deceased declares never to have committed, while the second series names and is addressed to specific deities, also disclaiming certain actions. Acts that are considered “impure” include everything from murder (A14), blaspheming a god (A8), using dishonest scales (A25), and committing adultery (B19), to lying (B9), being quarrelsome (B25), being loud-mouthed (B37), and making someone weep (A13). Clearly no one could say that he or she had never done any of these things! Perhaps Hans Goedicke is right (1967) when he suggested that the deceased only picked those declarations that could truthfully be made, while overlooking the others.21 In any case, four of the declarations are relevant to our discussion; the initial translations are by John Wilson (in J.B. Pritchard22):

(A20) “I have not had sexual relations with a boy.” Parkinson notes that this reads, “I did not nk a nkk(w),” which is best translated as “I did not sexually penetrate another male,” not indicating any age bracket.23 Later inscriptions in the temple at Edfu (in Memphis) and in a papyrus from Tanis stated that it was a taboo “to unite oneself with an hm [effeminate male] or with a nkk [passive homosexual].”24 Yet, other versions of A20 are more general, stating something like “I have not committed fornication.” (Budge, 1951) or “I have not copulated [illicitly].” (Allen, 1960; cf. Faulkner, 1972).25

(B27) “O His-Face-Behind-Him, who comes forth from Tep-het-djat, I have not been perverted; I have not had sexual relations with a boy .” Tep-het-djat was a sanctuary in the region of Memphis, the northern capital of Egypt (about 12 miles south of modern Cairo) during the Early Dynastic Period and Old Kingdom.26 Budge translates this confession as, “Hail, thou whose face is [turned] backwards, who comes forth from the Dwelling, I have not committed acts of impurity, neither have I lain with men.”27 Posener notes how homosexuality was forbidden in Memphis and two other nomes (provinces).28..

(A21) I have not defiled myself.” Because of its vagueness, Budge translates this as “I have not polluted myself [in the holy places of the god of my city].” – filling in from the Papyrus of Amenneb (British Museum, No. 9964).29 T.G. Allen translates from the Ryerson Papyrus (OIM No. 787, University of Chicago): “I have not been unchaste, as priest of the city-god.” – drawing from the Turin, Leyden T 2, and L 3074 Papyri.30

(B20) O Maa-Intef, who comes forth from the Temple of Min, I have not defiled myself.” Budge translates this as, “Hail, thou who lookest upon what is brought to him, who comest forth from the Temple of Amsu [Min], I have not committed a sin against purity.”31 Min, an Egpytian fertility god, was normally depicted with an erect penis, which sometimes he held in his left hand. Bunson notes that “his festivals were joyous occasions”32 and one wonders what that meant with a fertility god! As Posener notes, “The Egyptians, who devoted themselves enthusiastically to the pleasures of life, knew how to appreciate the art of ‘spending a merry day’ – to quote their expression.”33 Still, perhaps homosexual acts were frowned upon in the sacred precincts of Min, since they were, in fact, infertile.

At certain points and in certain strata, then, the Book of the Dead does look upon both active and passive homosexuality as a “sexual taboo”34 and as “a deviation from Maat,”35 the goddess and path of universal harmony.36 .."

As can be seen, there is a definite published "doctrine" out of Africa, and homosexuality, like other
forms of sexual impurity, was indeed clearly deemed a deviation from Maat. Again this does not mean
homosexuality did not happen, but the teaching of virtue, the RIGHT way, is clear. Maat was supposed
to apply not only to elite priests in the temples, but to the ordinary peasant in the fields, across
the board.
