I am starting to see museums as Bandit lairs filled with spoils and prizes. What has also concerned me is that if we were all to disapear tomorrow would the next intelegent life form think that life and all things started at this place:

http://www.british-museum.ac.uk/

I mean they have stolen around 6million artifacts, some countries dont want them back because they have been maliciously distorted. Other countries know what they look like and demand them back every year.

Your opinions on the British Museum and Museums in General. Should some countries be trusted more than others? Should artifacts be allowed to be sold like common items?

stolen artifacts should be treated the same as stolen car parts, if you buy or sell them you are guilty`
