Funny thing: In Mel Gibson's last movie, he depicted a civilization that took delight in engaging in a form of torture in which the victim's extremities were pierced and used to hang him so that the pressure on his body caused him to suffocate. He would push himself up, upon the spike in his feet, to try to breathe. Exhausted, he'd then collapse, suffocating again.
This civilization had some of the greatest innovations in the ancient world and is the necessary precursor to all of Western Civilization.
I didn't hear anybody complaining about Mel Gibson maligning the Romans.

The author has a PhD. He is an objective scientist with no agenda other than the truth.
All cultures are equal. Tearing peoples hearts out and eating them is not wrong if it is part of their indigenous culture, especially if they only do ten or twenty at a time.
Give them credit that they don't do thousands at a time.

Nobody gives a d*mn about the Romans....
"I didn't hear anybody complaining about Mel Gibson maligning the Romans."
That's because the Romans don't have a bunch of guilt ridden people romanticizing them.
