Uh, I doubt it. Maybe up until the Middle Ages, but definately not afterwards. Obviously I'm talking about Egypt in it's heyday, Melnorme. Consider Egyptian influence on Ancient Greece (the foundation of Western Civilization).

Futile and counterproductive to the enjoyment of life. Like the bizarre way South Africa used to classify people. "You're Black if the pencil that is put in your head doesn't drop out. You're colored if your skin is lighter than this color on the wall." Some of us have moved beyond that. As you well know, it's a little more complicated than that. You can't equate physical anthropology with apartheid; it's apples and oranges. Anyway, notice how I've stayed out of the 'superiority' debate.

That link wasn't meant to directly address any argument in this thread - they've asked that people 'Google bomb' it and I was looking for an excuse. If you want arguments then you can look through their archives ( with an open mind ), there are plenty of them. I'd be more interested in your opinion. Don't want to get involved in to many debates at one time, I do have a life of the internet.

That's why I find it funny when I go on StormFront. It's entertaining.. looking at people who are proud of OPP. annanuki, OPP means "other people's property" BTW. You asked. Now you know. Which posts have you been reading? I never wrote that I was proud of European achievements. I'm not even proud of ancient Persian achievements because I myself had nothing to do with it. I said I consider Europeans superior. If you don't likey, well, who cares. ;D

You don't have to say anything. "We" are not a stupid people. All of your postings denying things without me pointing anything out speaks for itself. Your so insecure that all I had to do was to make comments about your avatar and voila!... you changed it. It's both funny and sad. In order to feel solidarity with people who you want to be accepted by, people always look for an enemy. If you notice, the most racist against Blacks on here are the North Africans, because they want to distance trhemselves. The most brutal guards in the Polish Ghettoes were Jewish guards... I could care less who you worship. Do you really think I care what a Persian does? I just find it funny, almost clownish. I'm entertained. -there are 3 north africans here, one of them is recent and you are using the plural, So I guess you are targeting me. -Where have you read any racist post from me? Please check my posts (Profile>posts>all) before getting into hasty conclusions -I ask you to remove or edit all the posts where I'm defamed. -try to understand (not simply read) what berter writes.

Your so insecure that all I had to do was to make comments about your avatar and voila!... you changed it. I frequent many boards and change avatars from time to time on every one of them. Anima commented on my avatar a couple of months ago and I didn't change it. You think I'd do that because some nobody Asian comments it? OOOH whoopsie, I changed my avatar again and this time it's a picture of myself! Oh gee, wonder what that means?! ;D Perhaps the all-knowing human2 might be so kind as to inform me why I changed it this time. Get over yourself. If I were to change avatars (and signatures, personal info and what else) because jerks I - thank God - will never meet or know comment them, I'd do nothing but change avatars all day long. It's both funny and sad. In order to feel solidarity with people who you want to be accepted by, people always look for an enemy. And who would those be to me? Other Persians? East Asians? You don't think you're reading a whole lot into something that's not there? It's not a matter of wanting to be accepted. I already AM that and I haven't had to dislike other groups of people (besides jerks) to become accepted. Culture unites more than ethnicity, no matter what the racist morons think. I could care less who you worship. Do you really think I care what a Persian does? I just find it funny, almost clownish. I'm entertained. Simple-minded people are easily amused. Enjoy. ;D

Whoops, changed it again and to a mighty Caucasoid-looking one! Could that mean I nurture a secret hatred for oooh say Australoids and that I desperately want to be accepted by Eskimos? Only human2 knows!

There's been considerable mixing of people and culture.
The music of India and Celtic pockets in Britain share similarities. In fact, there are studies that show the amazing similarities in language, religion, music, mythology, etc. between Indian and Celtic societies.
Music is not an isolate, but evolves and undergoes change like language and culture.
Let's face it, lemon, cinnamon, etc. were introduced to Europe. Horses were brought to the U.S. Many things were borrowed and sought after. With each contact between societies, the societies evolve and change.
There is tremendous hybridization of language, music, technology, arts, science, food, clothing, etc. due to the contacts between societies.
Check out the origins of the herbs and spices and you'll understand.
Personally, I am very global about my herbs and spices! Keep the flavors coming!!!!!!! Lemon, olive oil, cinnamon, vanilla bean, coconut, basil, dill, cilantro, paprika, sage, etc.! If it weren't for the societal interactions, there would be no good food!
Who wants to be some British farmer, Native American hunter, or Scandinavian fisherman eating bland gruel or corn or fish? No bland, dull, unseasoned food for me!

It's both funny and sad. It's human nature. In order to feel solidarity with people who one wants to be accepted by, one always look for an enemy. If you notice, the most racist against Blacks on here are a Berber and an Egyptian, because they want to distance themselves. The most brutal guards in the Polish Ghettoes were Jewish guards... I guess you are targetting me (Berter) and Alexandrian; Right !?. Nature distanced me from Blacks. I'm a very productive and successful berber north african, who dont need to be accepted by any other ethnic group, except mine. Berter (1) Berter (2) Berter (3)Berter (4)

Why did you feel the need you post pics of you to prove that you're not SS African. I posted my pics in response to your statement : "If you notice, the most racist against Blacks on here are a Berber and an Egyptian, because they want to distance themselves [from Blacks]". I and my people are naturally distanced from Blacks and from Europeans as well. Thats the diagram I have in mind : www.imagehosting.us/imagehosting/showimg.gif/?id=192094Thats right, human2. Nooki is a nordman-phile and I'm far from being a Max von Sydow type; Dont trust her, man.
