Do you ever despair of the willful ignorance of certain anti-intellectuals who crawled under the conservative tent flap?

Why does everything have to be analysed to death? The early humans were just that—human. A few of them appreciated the way things looked, or wanted to better understand how something looked, so they drew a picture of it. They were artists. Historians, anthropologists, psychologists and archeologists will apparently never understand this simplest and most basic of human instincts: the urge to create.

Malotki, a professor emeritus of languages at Northern Arizona University, said no one would ever know the true meaning of images pecked or painted on stone pallets because the artists are dead and did not leave a record or "Rosetta Stone" to decipher the images' meanings.

They haven't asked Helen Thomas?
