[QUOTE]Originally posted by osirion: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Horemheb: [b]osirion, well, first we do not even know if abraham and sarah existed as historical people. Secondly , Egyptians were north african causasians, much like the reconstruction of Tut pointed out. the rest of this is nothing more than Afrocentric silliness. [/b][/QUOTE] I really actually don't know what you mean about Afrocentric. I think that refers to the idea that the Greeks were Black. If you are referring to my statement about Tut being too light, well, don't you agree that they should have used the same color that the Egyptians used? If not and you think that using modern Egyptian skin tone knowing that the Egyptian region has had a huge influx of Asian and European genes due to conquest, can you explain on what observable facts you maintain your position. Definition of Bigot: One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ. Definition of Prejudice: An adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts. Definitions put together: An inability to accept facts, regardless of the evidence, due to a bias. Hor, do you really want to be described based on the above two words? Why shouldn't the bust of Tut have been colored according to the Reddish/Brown that he was depicted by people who actually saw him alive? It is absurd that a guestimate of his color would have been used when the actual color is available. Why would someone guess at the color accept to obfuscate for political reasons? Think about it! Technically the color wouldn't make his race any different since the classification system we have is flawed with double standards. If Tut is Caucausian then so is Harry Bellafonte. I suppose you will have only insults to offer in reply. I would actually welcome some actual facts since I am not bias but the race classification doesn't mean much since it is rather arbitrary. What does mean something is culture. [/QB][/QUOTE]
