Aborigines...yeah. They're human.

You guys'll have to trust me on this one.

1. When teenage boys go on their "walkabouts," they know where evey oasis, every cliff is, without ever having been there. They remember important info passed down by the elders. All of it. Tell me that's not intelligence.

2. If heavy browridges and odd cranial appendages make one less intelligent than they'd be without them, then I'd assume us Alpines are less intelligent than you Nordics. We have shorter skulls, after all.

3. You can't judge intelligence by whether a people constantly contemplates the meaning of life, builds huge cities, or knows calculus. If I hunted for my food and never lived in one place, would that make me any less intelligent?

4. Aboriginal languages have really complex grammar; four noun classes, multiple intonations for different parts of a sentence, six places of articulation (more than most), and such. I don't think homo erectus could speak such complex tongues. (That is, as complex as many other, unrelated human languages.)

So, yeah. You people need to understand that not everybody is just like you; people come in all sorts of varieties. Don't believe the stuff about sloping foreheads and such indicating dumbness. I fell for that too, once.

Oh, one more thing: stop with the Alpines-are-ugly bit, those who are saying such things.

I'm starting to question your value at this board. And I'm not the only one. I'm sure Aborigines are wonderful but what does that serve us here? This board is not about Aborginals or Negroes, it is about Europeans and those of European descent. If your want to rant, go to another board.

RoundskullBoringguy,

You stated in another post that you didn't realize that Skadi is a European-focused board (although I can't see how you missed the giant banner that reads European Cultural, Racial and Spiritual Preservation), but surely now you realize that we are primarily interested in our own peoples, not aborigines. Posts and references to other races are generally only for comparison purposes (and sometimes amusement), not glorification. This board is for us - aborigines and the like have their own boards, I'm sure.

Your posts thus far have been mostly agitating and mocking while providing little information. Please see your way to focusing on relevant European issues or see yourself out.

Preservation has nothing to do with his argument.
Why not argue against his points instead of saying they cant be discussed here?

Perhaps you'd like to join him at an Aborginal board. We have no interest in discussing Aborginals with exception of their physical features or psychological traits.

[RoundskullBoredguy]

Which is the way I'm discussing them.

[Vojvoda]

Which Aboriginies are you talking about?

[RoundskullBoredguy]

I dunno, really...umm...all of them?

He mentioned both in his post, and I don't think your implied threat to 21wqre2 was appropriate. If the facts that Roundskullboredguy presented are true, then I learned something today. True, they don't pertain to Europeans, although you could have brought them into the picture by rebutting his statements, or comparing aboriginals to Europeans instead of just saying he doesn't belong.
