[QUOTE]Originally posted by Keino: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Horemheb: [b]What you are calling 'Eurocentric' is nothing more than a historical process. I think you have bought into the whole victim mentality. European whites have dominated the world since at least 1500 and to a large degree still do today. None of it has anything to do with some 'mean white nman' theory. There is no question that in many ways Euro-American whites have had a superior culture, at least since 1500. The North American Indians were swept aside because they encountered a superior culture and lost. This has been the story of the human condition for as far back as we can see. Did Europeans have stronger military power, you bet. In developing capitalism, which led to the Industrial revolution, they also had much more economic power. All of this led to great universities and solid social institutions. Minorities prosper today only by buying into this Euro-American culture. All this is nothing more than 'a period of history.' Like all others it will pass in time to yet another dominant culture. That culture will seem just as over powering as this one has seemed. I know many learned people, as you all do. I know NONE who do not seek the truth. The very word university implies 'universal knowledge' and universal includes us all. I do believe that many minorities have been taught, almost instinctly, that all their problems were created by the evil European/Ameroicans. Nothing could be further from the truth. The very fact that we are having this conversation in the first place proves that. Lets be historians, not victims.[/b][/QUOTE] From you post I see you have no idea about the facts and truths that I posted. I am a man of science and sit well and honourably with the likes of research and medical doctors. You are deluded if you think I am looking to have anyone play the victum...It is what it is! There is nothing in any of these post that indicated victumization...Everyone has listed evidence as to why they believe what they believe. See you have no basis for you assult against me, but it doesn't matter because what you wrote was very ignorant and unfounded. See you seem to have very little logic. If you did, you would know that history makes little to no sense unless we can study and understand it in the context of the social atmosphere of the people in study. My post simply set the tone for the establishment of Egyptology and why we have to evaluate all of the information, evidence and beliefs that came out of that time(historical) period. The atmosphere under which it was founded was inundated with racism and scientific agendas to prove white supremacy. This is hsitorical fact!!
