That just makes your record more impressive :)
Yes, that’s precisely what you said when you asserted what you did.
Frankly, I’m not surprised. I had you pegged with the terminology.
White man bad, brown man good. Facts be damned!
Here is what I said:
"Why the hostility and disdain toward them? Their material culture was centuries behind that of Western Europe. They used their women as pack animals and many practiced human sacrifice and cannibalism. But they did make astronomical discoveries that were ahead of the Europeans, and had devised advanced metallurgy methods. They created sophisticated hydrology systems and hybridized plants long before the Europeans did. Their textiles and art were and are marvelous. They were what they were, and I certainly don’t despise them for it.
Can't think why anyone would want to disparage their accomplishments. Seems to me that it is neither here, nor there" ... unless you have a big chip on your shoulder and are a bigoted jackass.
“Can’t think why anyone would want to disparage their accomplishments.”
How have I disparaged their contributions? I said they were fine astronomers. I simply question your claim that their calendar, as you asserted, was in fact superior to Europeans at the time. A fact, which you’ve been unable to provide evidence, despite citations which do not say what you claimed they do.
When pressed, I found evidence that proved that you were wrong, and that your entire statement was a product of shoddy research and a thin gloss of the subject. This is after questioning my competence. Frankly I’m amused by how this topic is proceeding. Which, btw, is exactly how I expected it would go.
“I am not surprised you had trouble getting a degree.”
Yeah, I actually had to work to earn my degree instead of just regurgitating leftist crap for all my papers.
“a bigoted jackass.”
There’s only one person making the comparison between Europeans and Mayans, and that would be you. Hun, there’s only one bigoted jackass here, and it ain’t me.
I am sure you are right. I apologize. I should never dare to opine when you are round, because I, being a mere woman, will always loose. Please, however, do not condescend to me by calling me “Hun.” Why do I suspect you may have problems with women as well as minorities? Happy Wayeb. And their calender was superior to the one in use in Europe at the time.
We are discussing anthropology, correct?
Thus, based on your argument, Indians, whites, and blacks are the same in terms of origins.
PS The Japanese are amongst the most racist of peoples, and they do not accept Ainu as “Japanese”.
Yes our DNA proves all humans came from the same ancestors. Isn’t that what the Bible says? What do you believe? Kennewick man was probably an Ainu who came from japan. What the japanese think of Ainu has nothing to do with Kennewick man.

Thanks Captain Beyond for the ping (in 2010) and thanks pillut48 for posting the topic.
>> I’m thinking of a skeleton, of a white man, that was found in Oregon <<
Probably D. B. Cooper.
Quanah Parker had blue eyes. His mother was anglo, but since brown is dominant, he shouldn’t have had blue eyes.

Nice dig, SunkenCiv!
:’) There’s another about supposed Inca remains from a 1000 year old grave in Scandinavia. :’)
