Thanks for sharing, I've met Dr. Faraji and have nothing but love for that Brotha. I will watch the video in its entirety tomorrow, however what I did notice is that when Dr. Issa was pouring libation he said, "Twereduapɔn Kwame nsa". We do not pour liquor to Onyame rather we show him the liquor.

Thanks for the clarification.  I just started listening to Dr. Faraji. I like his spirit in his lecture...definitely passionate.  I have only seen his videos but have not read any of his writings yet.  

He does seem to lean toward a Christian orientation in his videos.  

Let me know your thoughts after watching.

"If anybody knows if the MDW NTR has been deciphered it's not the monolingual Kmtyw in America"

Who in the world is claiming that the MDW NTR has not been deciphered?

I see you have not been poisoned by some of the junk on youtube yet. That's good.

Distractors.....ridiculous claims going around that aren't worth attention.

Nope, and now based on your comment I don't think I want to find out.

For me, the presentation begins at 1:09 when Dr. Faraji discusses the flow of the Nile.  What I appreciated about this lecture were the other Nubiologist scholars Dr. Faraji mentioned, like Dr. Solange Bumbaugh.  While watching the presentation, you get the feeling that Dr. Faraji is irked by the rise of the fake scholars in our community. It was kind of sad to hear him prop up his credentials because we in LA know he's a beloved Professor. But with the rise of the fake scholars, you have to separate yourself.

In the video Dr. Faraji said, "We debate to bring clarity of direction." Meanwhile, at the beginning of the video, Saa Neter is advertising a debate between the Amen Ra Squad/Asar Imhotep and Sara Suten Seti/Young Pharaoh on the topic "Has the Mdw Neter Been Deciphered."

It's interesting that Dr. Faraji is putting his weight behind Asar Imhotep, he showed him a lot of love in that video.

Indeed.  It's interesting.

I'm beginning to feel the whole debate format in today's climate is a total waste. And becomes some of the worst "reality shows" out there. It seems it's just to get crowd out to pay $20-30 to see a dis-fest clothed in Kmtyw history and culture facts or straight up misinformation. I'm not feeling good about the motivation of some folk out there that their only line of income are these debates. Money can make you do and say anything.

That is interesting since I have questions about Asar Imhotep scholarship. There are a couple of people who's scholarship I do trust that back him. I still remain highly skeptical of him.

I have said this before, I wonder if we know enough about Mdw Ntr to talk about it on a high level? They are plenty of people that can read it but nobody speaks it beyond saying "Hotep", "Dua", "Maa Keru". Why is that?

Dr. Faraji is an AME Minister, and he believes that Jesus is a historical personality that came out of Kemet rather than a historical figure. His information about the Early Christian Movement, Coptic Tradition, Language, and Nubia is top class.

I can see that this is his area of focus. A historical personality rather than a historical figure...that's interesting.

I wonder what is the end goal of the study....is it to somehow legitimize the religion as having an Kmtyw origin?  I haven't read his work yet so really can't make an informed comment.  

One question I would have is if he believes that a personality called jesus came out Kemet, shouldn't we look at Kemet for what knowledge might be gained there and study what is still there in Kemet?  

I might look at more of his stuff....
