CIVILISATIONS are organised societies.
They are built by people who are settled.
They are not built by people who are on the move or are in transit and just passing through this world to a location somewhere in space which they would like us to believe is a better civilisation than the one we have built in this world as our home and heritage.
Civilisations are not built by people who reject this world.
They are built by people who like to settle in this world as their home and heritage.
People who regard this world as ‘a passage to India’ or other worlds outside this world have never organised themselves to settle down and build civilisations.
They will never settle down to build anything that is of lasting value on this earth that is worth calling a civilisation.
They have not left any legacy for their children in Europe except the art of living by destroying anything and any people who build anything of lasting value in this world and looting their treasures for their own survival and move on to the next on their way to somewhere in the sky.
The high rises of Europe and America are never lasting and were not built and meant to last as were the pyramids of Egypt or the monuments of Great Zimbabwe.
The pyramids of Egypt are the first civilisation on earth known to mankind.
The Great Zimbabwe monuments are the second earliest civilisation known to mankind.
Both these civilisations are in Africa.
They were built by Africans as a heritage for their children to be proud of and cherish and defend.
They were built by a people who saw this world as their home given to them by their benevolent Creator to love, cherish, defend and protect as a heritage for their children and children’s children.
Civilisations are built to last as a heritage for a people’s children and their children’s children. The technological amazements of the West called ‘High Rises’ are not civilisations.
They were not built to last or meant to last as civilisations do.
They are beautiful to look at, but are as fragile as an aeroplane that bursts into flames on mere contact with a bird in flight.
No.
There are no monuments in the West that show that the ancestors of Europeans were geniuses who settled down in one place to build anything of lasting value worth calling a civilisation.
Some of the ancestors of the European race were called ‘Vandals’, which means uncivilised people who move from one place to another, terrorising civilisations built by people who saw this world as their home, and ransacking their properties and looting their treasures.
The descendants of European ancestors also came to Zimbabwe and called themselves Rhodesians, and terrorised our ancestors and took away their land and cut their heads and sent them to Europe and kept them in their museums as curios for the amusement of tourists.
Rhodesians are ferocious organised robbers.
They formed the ‘Loot Committee’ and ransacked the monuments of our civilisation and robbed them of the treasures that our ancestors had left for us as our heritage.
They opened up the graves of our ancestors like witches and wizards looking for the flesh of the dead, and cut off the heads, hands, ankles and ears of the dead and removed the bangles, necklaces, earrings and beads that our buried ancestors wore.
They ransacked the Great Zimbabwe monuments for artworks whose use and value they knew nothing about and converted their loot into their own personal collections.
Examples are the Zimbabwe Birds and Mukwati’s walking stick, tsvimbo yaMukwati.
The birds were a personal collection of Rhodes.
Mukwati’s walking stick was a personal collection of Booth.
The heads which they cut off from the bodies of our ancestors still remain in the possession of museums in Europe as curios for the entertainment of tourists.
Examples are the remains of Nehanda, Kaguvi, Mashayamombe, Chingaira and Mukwati.
Our woes continue to compound.
The descendants of Europeans who cut the heads of our ancestors and stole the treasures of our civilisation now live among us as bona fide citizens of Zimbabwe and heirs to our civilisation as also their heritage.
Our well as a teapot nation will soon run dry if Zimbabweans and ZANU PF leave our Constitution as it is.
