the only illiterate natives descended from high culture? If we had
the written history to prove it, which we don't, we would find that
virtually all primitive cultures are like the Maya in that respect,
fallen from a higher culture.
I'm beginning to think you're pulling my leg, rather than engaging in
a real discussion. Which is fine, but a smiley would be nice.
I am not pulling your leg. I don't have the same reverence for currently
fashionable scientific thought that many have in our culture. I have an
abiding confidence in all human ignorance, especially my own. --JWR
