Your original post exudes ignorance. I find it amusing that the white people screaming about how “White Christians are so smart and important” are usually the stupidest and least important people around.
A lot has already been touched on. Many of the greatest philosophers in human history predated Christ, so there goes the Christian part of your theory. Edward Gibbon argued that the Pax Romana (1st-2nd Centuries CE) was the single greatest and most peaceful time to live on Earth. At least in the Mediterranean world, it was certainly a more humane period than both the Early and High Middle Ages–during which Christianity was, for the first time, at the center of European life.
Why was it Europe and not Africa that produced Hamlet and the Mona Lisa and the Notre Dame? Geography. Europeans live in a temperate climate. Summers are warm and winters are cold but water is abundant and the temperature rarely kills. The animals scattered across Europe are generally harmless and remarkably domesticable. Africa is the opposite. Could Shakespeare have penned (quilled?) Othello if he had to spend every day walking ten miles to the river (you can’t live near it because predators congregate there every day), running from lions, hunting gazelles, all the while sweating like a whore in church? No.
Throughout most of the history of civilization, China was the most sophisticated place on Earth.
The torch of civilization was carried in large part by Islamic Arabs during the Dark Ages. Europeans laughed at the ridiculous Arabs because they “bathed every day”…many Brits bathed only once or twice a year. They even introduced the concept of zero to the stupid white Christians in 12th Century (it probably originated in India in the 9th Century).
Why did Europe (and later, North America) emerge as the powerhouse of the Modern Era? Diamond argues Guns, Germs, and Steel. Add to that large natural reserves of coal very close to the surface. Also, the willingness to colonize and mercilessly exploit foreign peoples.
Don’t get me wrong, I love me my whiteness. Vampire Weekend crooning on the radio as I roll to the hip downtown coffee shop in my Prius. The gentle breeze threatening to undo my skinny scarf and blow my pastel fedora out into the suburban Springtime. But fucktards like you need to understand that we arrived here today as a result of a huge collective effort on the part of literally millions of people of different religious, ethnic, and racial backgrounds. We sit on the shoulders of Giants–and many of them were black, Latino, Chinese, Arabian…even Eastern European I guess (I joke, I joke). What the fuck have you contributed to human civilization?[/quote]
Fact: Studies indicate that the average african is mentally retarded or at least borderline retarded.
You need a large enough population of sufficiently intelligent people to build a society which can carry a Shakespeare on its own shoulders. You need a group of people capable of carrying out simpler tasks and upholding order; government, food production, distribution, caretaking etc.
Then you need the geniuses to come up with higher technology and ideas for making the workers’ work more efficient. As this process goes on, a society develops to the degree that it can afford a philosopher or a poet to fulfill related needs. Before coming up with a Shakespeare, they should do something like inventing the wheel to help themselves. The africans have not done this.
The temperatures in many european countries are unforgiving (occasionally sub-arctic) and the natural resources poor, as opposed to the excellent resources of Africa. You can survive days without water but you can’t survive a night in freezing cold without proper shelter. In addition, you have almost nothing to eat and have to hunt on a terrain of thick snow. The domesticable animals would not be in love with those conditions either. And indians were able to domesticate the elephant.
If a group of people does not have the brains or willingness to go seafaring and thus come in contact with others, then it’s impossible to say that they would not have mercilessly colonized, if they could have. In order to do something, one must have the ability to do it first. If anecdotal evidence going back centuries as well as crime date from recent years is of any worth, they would have been far more merciless.
Here’s a small breakdown:
-Whites: Most inventions on record, highest technological achievements, most written languages, the most celebrated aesthetics, most celebrated musicians and artists, celebrated architecture, dominant religions and philosophies, bulk of world trade, like to stick to their own kind but also account for most developmental aid to other races
-North-East Asians: Smart, orderly, prone to tyranny, copy ideas from whites, racist towards other races and like to isolate, amazed by the beauty of whites
-Amerindians: Primitive, semi-urban societies/countries with whiter ones rising at the top, reputed to hold ancient, historical achievements in architecture and mathematics
-Indians: India, once ruled by whites, was reputedly a great civilization. These days, quite awful with primitive beliefs. India also gave Europe gypsies, a band of traveling criminals prone to mental retardation
-Arabs: reputed to hold historical achievements in math and science, have a history of empires and colonization, tendency to follow a violent and backwards (for all practical purposes) religion, more aggressive and criminal than whites, more sexual than whites; lust after white women
-Blacks: No achievements save for some piles of rocks celebrated as proof of civilization, jokesters in academia and Hollywood have attempted to build a reputation using sleight of hand and positive imagery
So there is some complexity to the picture. As it is, we must remember that diversity is not a strength if it leads to the white race destroying itself. Other races lust after white genes which, when allowed, causes us all to dissolve into a brownish mold, the very opposite of lies about diversity taught to us in school. [/quote]
