If Molefi sends his articles to ghanaweb himself, such a mistake will not occur. The webmasters think the article was written by the one who sent it - you.

I was about to go at length to explain these limitations of IQ test and the white supremacists politics of it. The French scientist-- Alfred Binet (who invent this model) never suggested that IQ test is equal to intelligence. In fact, he believes that intelligence is not constant. According him, it increases and changes as one grows. He therefore develops this model to help children who for various reasons are lagging behind their peers in academic pursuit in the same environment. The model was ceased by the eugenics movement (who having failed to develop their own mental test over the years) to measure and propagate black mental inferiority vis-a-vis white superiority.

Biological functions are common characteristics of all living things. Some try to maximize functioning at the expense of others, and this is not foreign to the African culture either. There is nothing wrong with Christianity. Christianity helps to improve interpersonal relationships by making us realize that the creator is the source of all provision.

Hello my friend, there are too many things wrong with Christianity! You want to bet? But, before then, I would want you to do some few researches. Please read the following books in the order I am listing them:
1. Breakthrough To Enlightenment, Discover The Deception Behind Religion And The Occult - Alexander Tracy; 2. Man, God And Civilization - John Jackson; 3. The Calendar - David E. Duncan. Today Christianity could have been charged for plagiarism. You will discover how the concept of Jesus Christ was manufactured at the Council of Nicaea in 325AD. Please contact me for us to chart the way for our own kind; and indeed, that has been the essence of the writer, Francis Kwarteng:kaankaetozena@gmail.com

Is Afrocentrism a hate movement towards the white race ? I for one have never really understood why People of Africa decent have always go in for others people's culture? I seek not to judge any race but how come all over the world the black race has been almost at a disadvantage? Is it that we as a people have failed ourselves or what?

I didn't read Kwarteng's disclaimer. I hereby withdraw my call for celebration. Kwarteng didn't write this article. If he had, it would have been at least 4000 words long with quotations from far more persons than just the late C. L. R. James. Then I'll advise Kwarteng to pick a leaf from his hero - write short straight to the point articles that do not have to quote every writer and singer he has ever read or heard.
The real author of this article is Dr. Molefi Kete Asante, not Francis Kwarteng. Please take note.
