It was recorded, in history, as the battle of the greats. It's not what you think! It's not a fist fight; it's a battle of the beautiful minds. It's a great debate.
The show was set at the Temple of Amen in Menefa, now Memphis. The temple was as majestic as the Pharaoh, himself, sitting royally on his throne. Standing next to the pharaoh, on stage, were two Maggistos. On the right was Djehuti, the African (aka Thoth, Idris), and on the left was Hermes, the Greek. The audience was an army of Horite priests. They're as interesting as the topic of the debate: "what's the greatest number?"
Hermes opened up the debate by pronouncing, emphatically, "10" the greatest number. Without much ado, Djehuti stepped forward and pronounced "2" as the greatest number. The epistemology of number 10 being deemed the greatest number is self-evident - humans have ten fingers. But 2, not so much; it's counter-intuitive.
The pharaoh couldn't believe his ears. He was visibly annoyed. He looked at Djehuti and asked, "how could number 2 be greater than 10?" The Horite priests nodded their heads in agreement. Djehuti stepped forward to defend his thesis and his waning reputation. He looked up and asked the Horite priests: "are you all ignorant of your craft?" "Do you not know that 2 is the number of divination?" - in other words, 2 is the number of IFA. In a more conciliatory tone, he further explained himself to the audience: "when I spoke of 2 as the greatest number, I wasn't talking about what one could count with one's fingers. I was talking, however, about the hidden and the revealed, odd and even, the two-truths, the universal opposites!" The debate ended as scheduled. Djehuti won. He was already great, but with his victory, he's now thrice great (Trismegistus).
Fast forward to the Common Era. The greatest numbers die hard! The Greco-Romans invented a composite God, IESUS XPICTOC (Jesus the Christ). They set his first initial "I" to number 1, the beginning and his last initial "X" to their greatest number, 10, the end - Roman numerals; the Alpha and the Omega!
Meanwhile, somewhere in Spain, a self-taught philosopher, Raymond Lull, was obsessed with Djehuti who lived Millenia prior. Lull had read about the great debate in the temple of Amen, in Menefa, and had made it his life's mission to decode Djehuti's "two-truths." He learned, from a reliable source that, the Chinese were using the "two-truths" for divination - Ikin or I Ching. How, he couldn't discern! He turned to the Almoravid Africans in Córdoba, knowing they're gifted diviners, and asked them about the two-truths. The Moors gave him the break he had sought all his life. "The two-truths is Ifa, binary, 0s and 1s," they revealed to him! Lull went on to build his logic gates on IFA, which is the basis of all computer systems, today.
All in all, the Greco-Romans went on to conquer the world with their invented God, but IFA, being the basis of computer system, is freeing the minds of people around the world, today.
