Yes, he was MOCKING me. Why? I didn't mock anyone - not at first. I was
friendly. And where in the entire cosmos and in the name of every
religion's god did he get the idea that I THOUGHT that? What do you mean by
"horror word references?" I don't understand what you are saying.

I'm sorry, "he only wanted to know my stand on the matter" doesn't quite cut
it, Dylan. Think about it. What if I asked you, "And so, Dylan, have you
beaten up or molested your children lately?" Is that a way to ask you how
you treat your children in your home in your culture? If someone said "Comm
only was really asking about your culture and how children are treated,"
would you believe that? Please! Do you see my analogy here?

He could have simply asked me why I thought that about Sumer and Tatars and
Indonesians (Austronesians) and I'd have simply told him - it's very very
simple. Nomads move around and spread ideas. These people were land and
sea nomads and that is 100% well known.

Take a look at English, the language, the Americanization of just about
every place in the world. Do you think that is independent development or
air travel and mass media that enabled this? It's threatening to replace
indigenous cultural things, even whole national cultural things. The same
exact types of things happen, over and over again. Big enough groups of
nomadic people travel around - they meet other people - they exchange ideas,
implements, knowledge and etc. It's a lot more plausible than
morphogensis - which is the other explanation for how all those ancient
people just happened, by mere coincidence, to develop the same kinds of
things at the same time, more or less! The Arabs and the Chinese did not
invent or develop TV. But they have TV. How'd they get the technology?
Isn't TV just a stage play - with more advanced technolgy? Sure it is.
And sure, there are many quibbles to be had about how it's not the same -
BLAH! It's the same - stage play, turned techno: entertainment. Have
humans as far back as we can document liked to sit and watch this stuff?
Yup. Therefore, it must be part of human nature to enjoy that kind of
thing. It's an inference. Can I prove it neurologically? No. Can it be
proven that sports games that humans also like to engage in are just the
hunting instinct vicariously used? No, I can't prove it. I can assume it -
but do females have hunting instinct? I like to play too.

You are excusing his behavior, tolerating it - and getting all over me for
striking him back. That just doesn't work, Dylan. I'm friendly toward you
because you have been friendly toward me. Hey, I am a pretty friendly
person. But I do not turn the other cheek when it's been hit 3 times.

As for them ganging up on PKM for saying something positive about
Afrocentrism - just what did he say? THEY have not provided a single quote
(to parrot their complaints). There are some thing they say that are not
only plausible, but provable - for instance about Songhay. Ibn Battuta went
there and wrote all about the place, mentioning some streets that were not
lit up (meaning most were lit up). So did the European Lady Lugard
"Tropical Heritage." Afrocentrism was developed as a direct reaction to the
dominant "Aryan" paradigm, as Martin Bernal called it, the IE paradigm,
Eurocentrism. He went overboard too - but no matter. Some of the claims
they make are still not quite as crazy as the IE claims not so long ago - no
matter if some IEists refute them ***NOW*** or not. Would anyone in their
right mind trust scholarship by people that tolerate the presense of, or are
themselves, connected to white supremacists? You gotta be kidding. Why
don't I just ask the KKK to tell me about Afro Americans. Or ask the Nazis
to tell me about Jews. I should do that....LOL. What I would find out is
why these groups hate the other groups - that's for sure. That would be a
study in psychology.

Why does the person who Steven Hayes calls a troll, PTDaniels, putting words
in my mouth, missing clear words I've stated and then asking me something so
stupid as "can you read music" or whatever he said. What's that?
Stupidity? I paste up a reference. He asks for it again. I paste it
again. Someone asks for it again. Ugh, 3 times then. Then he gets on me
for posting it 3 times? Enough. OK? Enough.

Picture us all in a cafe. Picture us having a big chat in a cafe. Do you
see heads being busted? I do. And if anyone ever asked you "how are
children treated in your culture" the way I demonstrated ala Jacques Guy
above, I really think their faces would bump into your foot. Hard.
