[QUOTE]Originally posted by Troll Patrol: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Truthcentric: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [qb]Indeed. I do believe that the discomfort generated by the idea of highly civilized Indian aboriginals secretly plays a role in the staunch denialism of some of these proponents. After all, if the Aryan Invasion is not a myth, the creators of the Indus Valley complexes must be sought elsewhere. It certainly wouldn't have been the first time European ideologues and their lackeys concocted the presence of enlightened outside civilizing forces (who, for some reason always 'happen' to be molded in their image), to not have to deal with the distressing prospect of 'primitives' running the show, way before their ancestors did. [/qb][/QUOTE]I believe the fundamental discomfort here comes from the fact that a barbarous light-skinned people (the Aryans) conquered and oppressed a dark-skinned civilization (the Indus Valley dudes) and that Hinduism as a belief system has its foundation in this oppression. That image isn't very flattering to upper-caste Hindus for obvious reasons. [/qb][/QUOTE]Various Hindu people say that Aryan is a culture, nothing ethnic. I've heard many denounce the "race" claim.
