Haqi, sounds good to me. I wanted to post this from another site to get opinions. Seems all races like to claim theirselves as descendants. (Note the source of this claim) "The Seed of Abraham According to the ancients, Hebrews were believed to be descendants of the black families of the earth. They refered to them as Ethiopians and Egyptians based on their appearance. (Ethiopians and Egyptians were offsprings of the same family, but settled different lands.) Originally, Hebrew referred to those who were nomads or landless. Abraham was a Hebrew. It was his descendants who later settled the Land of Canaan/Israel and Salem/Jerusalem). The Israelites immerged from this Abrahamite-Hebraic family. According to the ancestors, this is what the FATHER MOST HIGH said to our fathers about Circumcism: "This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your seed after you. Every man child among you shall be circumcised. The uncircumcised has broken my covenant." Circumcision is an Abrahamic-Hebraic custom that has been practiced in Africa for many milenniums, most notably in West Africa among the Ashanti and Yoruba. And the Great I AM, the ETERNAL made the following promise to Abraham: By myself have I sworn, that in blessing I will bless you and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and your seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; And in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because you have obeyed my voice." ----------- Note: Circumcision was given to Abraham's seed before Moses, which explains circumcision before Israel's birth ---- Source: African-American Heritage Holy Bible
