The Isis Papers: The Keys to the Colors

The Isis Papers
helped restore to life. Osiris was the great Egyptian God figure. Set is
considered the white brother.
In contrast, the early Christian religion and the Bible related evil to the
fallen angel Lucifer, a word that means light and that can be construed to
mean white. However, in the Middle Ages, for some Europeans, the devil
took on an appearance of a Black man with a long phallus, which has been
modified as the present red colored figure with a long tail and a longfork.
In keeping with each of the above perspectives of evil, Webster's
Dictionary defines "evil" as: "1. morallybadorwrong; wicked, depraved,
2. causing pain or trouble; harmful; injurious, 3. threatening or bringing
misfortune; unlucky; disastrous; unfortunate; as an evil hour, 4. resulting
from or based on conduct regarded as immoral; as an evil reputation."
The Cress Theory of Color Confrontation and Racism (White
Supremacy), links whites' unjust behavior towards people of color (black,
brown, red and yellow) to whites' inability to produce melanin skin
pigment in the skin melanocyte. The whites' numerical minority status
in the world and, ultimately, their fear of global white genetic annihilation
by the genetically dominant, skin melanin producing, non-white world
majority are pointed out as additional reasons for white aggression
towards people of color. This thesis helps to explain the evil "kill or be
killed" behaviors of the global white collective in relation to non-white
people.
In 1972, I presented a paper entitled, Melanin:_ The Neurochemical
Basis for Soul, at the annual meeting of the National Medical Association
Section on Neurology and Psychiatry. I theorized that the presence of
melanin in high concentrations in Blacks accounted for some of the
observable differences in behavior between Black and white people (ie.,
religious responsiveness, rhythm, emotional responsiveness, sensitivity
levels), noting the familiar saying amongst older Black people, "The
blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice; if it ain't got no soul, it ain't got
no use." Also, I emphasized the song by James Brown, "We Got More
Soul." Further, I pointed out that the most sensitive body areas are the
areas most highly pigmented.
Neurochemical Basis for Evil
Fifteen years ago in a paper entitled, "Blacks, Hypertension and the
Activ~ Skin Melanocyte" (Journal of Urban Health. 1975), I posited
melanm, among other things, as a possible neurotransmitter and the skin
melanocytes as the foundation of the sixth sense- the basis for know ledge
of the unseen, including a deeper knowledge of "bad." I explained that if
the melanocytes were sense receptors and melanin was a neuro transmitter,
then the darker the skin, the higher the levels of hypertensions found.
Primarily, this is true because people with darker skins are more sensitive
to the energy currents around them. If those energy currents are stressful
they will be more stressed, increasing levels of hypertension. '
In 1987, at the first Melanin Conference, I discussed The Cress Theory
on the George Washington Carver Phenomenon, suggesting that the skin
melanocytes of this very Black-skinned scientist (high level concentration
of melan~n skin pig~ent) enabled him to communicate with the energy
frequencies emanatmg from plants. Thus, he was able to learn their
secrets and purposes.
Since my 1972 presentation on the neurochemical basis for soul the
neuroche~ical basis of evil has periodically come to my mind, beg~ing
that I outlme my thoughts on evil as the anti-thesis of soul. I relate soul
to order, spirituality and the affirmation of life. I equate evil with chaos
and destruction, especially the destruction of life. (The word evil when
spelled backward is, live.) The discussion of evil takes on even more
sig~ificant proportions in light of the increasing number of persons in this
soc1ety who openly are proclaiming themselves to be worshippers of the
Devil- Devil being the arch doer of evil-in contrast to worshipping God.
Reportedly, these persons participate in the ritual murder of human
beings.
. The concept of evil is not at all unusual in religious and philosophical
discourse. Also, evil has been a frequent subject for literary exploration.
~e n~vel M oby Dick by Herman Mel ville is an example of the symbolic
dlscussion. of evil in classical American literature.) Evil is approached
less often m the natural sciences, including modem medicine. However
psychiatry is the one branch of modem medicine that has major antece~
