THE AFRICAN SAGE

The truth is that despite social pressure and hullabaloo about broke ass men all that most women will have to contend with are broke ass men. Unless someone was born rich, all men working through normal channels have to survive as broke ass men until they are about 40 years of age. Dear broke ass men; here are the commandments you should take to heart. 1.       You shall love yourself and never allow women of borrowed status to bruise your ego; women who have struggled and earned a status value the struggle.

Modern religious movements are also about those things. On witchcraft, as part of my social anthropology education, I considered as many traditional societies as possible. I came to the conclusion, witchcraft must have been real. But considering individual acts of witchcraft, many appeared to be belief based; more of self prophecy.
