It was also believed that the human race was several years younger than 25,000 year old skeleton recently discovered. What 25,000 year old skeleton was that? Where was it discovered? I'm not aware of anyone or any group who believed the human race was several years younger than 25,000 years old. Certainly no one in the scientific community believed it and, by your own admission, the fringe creationists don't believe it either. If there is a group who believed the human race was several years younger than 25,000 years old, they must be farther out on the fringe than fringe creationists.

I did not appreciate being stupid. Nor did I call it a fabrication. But instead of calling us, who spend longer than a few summers of youth, stupid was very much wrong. I have lived among BOTH Northeast and midwest natives. My mom spent her youth on the reservations of the Rockies, not just a few years but from toddler to adult. Her father was a Park Ranger in the Rockies for all those years. I have a native american, handmade family heirloom made by the silverworker in the tribe of her best friend, the same best friend that gave her the turquoise stone its made from. The ring is almost 75 years old. You know, BEFORE the Rockies became the tourist trap it is today. She was more or less Raised at this Reservation and has probably forgotten more than a few years of youth could tell. So to consider me as unknowledgeble is a bit of a mistake and since so many here are to white to figure out the answer...

Now I follow the issues and concerns of native Andean Indians in South America that have been decimated by well meaning missionaries by the common cold as they proliferate their specific view of religion. I have a home in Colombia and consider this abuse far more devastating than the land grab and Indian wars in early America." xxxxxxxxxx Can you show me where the above post insinuated you are stupid? In fact it was not the least bit negative unlike what you seem to enjoy posting denigrating anyone that has not lived your exact life experiences.

Telling me that I made any kind of reference to Reza as not being smarter than a 5th grader and telling me that I dont know what I am talking about just because I didnt originally brag up my background is calling me stupid. There are areas that I made sure I mentioned I agreed and others where I let it be known that I am not as stupid as insinuated. As I said, I may have mostly white in my blood, but a lot of native american history in my background. That is not talking mean on anyone except those who have tried to make me sound as though I have no reason to know a little something. And you Reza are the one who has tried to make it sound that way the most. My family live what you study, and smarter than a 5th, 6th or 7th grader means nothing. I have read many remarks here that were just plain biased, prejudiced and I have not seen you say one word about how wrong they are. And to those so convinced that the natives should rise up and fight, remember,'The meek shall inherit the earth.' Thats cause they got enough sense to stay out of stupid stuff and not listen to people with thier own agendas. Wish I had done that!

My friend the Vet was referencing a TV quiz show called "are you smarter than a 5th grader". Had you known you would have understood the humour, and laughed along with him, butt it does seem that you possess absolutely NO humour, and in fact show an insecurity about your own worth. Now I'm not saying this to belittle you, because I do think that you have something the say in regards to your knowledge of Native Indian history, butt don't put yourself down, because I think that you are actually smarter than you are. I did enjoy your story of the heirloom ring that you possess made out of an old Mexican silver dollar, in fact I have an heirloom given to me by an old Indian friend I once knew in Washington State. He was from the Upper Skagit Valley tribe, and one of the last speakers of a sub-dialect of Lushootseed, it's the language of the Northwest tribes. I helped him in a time of need, and before I left he gave me an exquisitely made silver Dream Catcher with real eagle feathers. The Northwest Natives are a unique culture and worth studying.

would all of you look over your comments the last 2 days; re-read them, analyze them, meditate on them ... i think you all will come to the realization that basically you have said NOTHING of importance ... OR interest to any of us! It was all so banal, so the epitome of boring bullshit that i had to laugh to think you had the nerve to print it ... i suspect you all are in junior high or had very inadequate high school English teachers (who probably coached on the side.) My point is: Get off this site and leave us alone to get back to pertinent issues. Thank you.

Hello drunkard wobbly neighbour, reza june. How are you chap? I hope you are all fine. If you dont mind me askin, I have somehting to ask of you, I saw the news on the Telly, what's with the English gov't issue about harboring the muslims, and giving them a haven in europe? "what's with you folks? I believed that move is a crazy one." They are putting our continent in peril for terrorist attacks. Pfft! I hoped there would be no bombings around europe. or it would be our devils pay chaps. "fak!".
i say, fak em all.
Is this the way you folks concede to the phrase, "Keep your friends close to you but keep yer enemies closer"?

Awww poor teenez weenie, stick around maybe our friend Cio will humour you with his extensive knowledge of the pertinent issues of drunken pirates and Englishmen.

Funny I didn't see is story on my BBC news, maybe you were watching the other BBC station (Big Boobs Channel). I do like the idea though, a haven for Pakistanis in France maybe? France is a country with land area three times that of the UK and the only thing in it is Frenchmen, what a waste, or then there is Eire, the land of your ancestors, that might work for the Pakis. We could call them Paki-trotters as opposed to Bog-trotters. Plenty of spare land there, and they could all be converted to Catholicism, problem solved, with no fear of the breweries and pubs coming under a terrorist attack, the fear is that they will be drunk dry. With enemies like that who needs friends.

Reza is an Arabic/Iranian name, I choose this because I have an Iranian connection. Glad to hear that you intend to treat all women with the respect their deserve, but only if they deserve it. Btw I'm a self educated Englishman, who is no more intelligent than you. I happened to like history and politics without the bullshit of the two political parties. I've travelled and worked in many countries including this country. Native Indian culture interests me very much, and the reason I seem to know a lot is from reading and a insatiable curiosity and appetite for knowledge. The reason that I'm on this thread is to learn more about Native culture, so I hope to find some here. I have only one thing to say to you...Go back to reading your books..talataos seems to'see and understand'the things you don't.

Btw, I think that talataos is a nice guy and I should hope that he does understand things that I don't seeing that he is 1/4 native American, and I am only a know nothing Englishman.

A: Im not a guy B: Im not the one putting me down, no one called you a know nothing englishman, and I myself am less than 1/4 native american in blood,100% in spirit. My older son is more true blood than I am. All beside the point. Every thing I have tried to say has treated as just 'What do you know?' When I say what I know the response is 'I know more than you cause Im studying and you merely lived.' You want to study? Live the life. Then tell me what I dont know.

My advice, lose the attitude, and prejudice we are not your enemy anymore. Btw, the story is only just beginning if you let it, I agree that you've all been dealt a bum hand, historically speaking, but no amount of feeling sorry for yourselves is going to alter that. Join the other minorities in forging ahead in education, and progress. Look forward instead of backwards, this doesn't mean that you have to lose your unique culture, if you don't then you will forever remain a roadside tourist attraction, and if you take this advice you may even surpass the white man in many things. But I feel, in your case, that this message may be lost on you.
