As for the argument that because the Chinese invented gun powder (but not usefull guns or artillery) or that Egyptians threw up a couple of big stone triangles, in some way shape or form compares to the fact that every facet of modern life has sprung from the brain of a white man is ludicrous. Electricity, nuclear fusion, space flight, phyics, chemistry, and on and on, should not be cheapened by comparison to the few clever things other races did a LONG time ago. It's a silly argument, silly when made by the major media and multiculturists and there is no reason to let it pass here!
The Egyptians invented physics and chemistry, chemistry itself is named
after the Egyptian word for earth - chem. The Egyptians also discovered
electricity. You fail to realise that human development and
civilisation itself is built on blocks, as I said before, white
Europeans were building on the blocks that others had laid down. Whilst
Europe was living in the Dark Ages, the Middle East was developing most
of the scientific principles that we use today. As for
gunpowder the Chinese invented that, they also invented the first guns
and cannons. They were first used in Europe not by white Europeans, but
against them by the Arabs.
And space flight and nuclear fusion would not have been possible
without mathematics, which of course was invented by the Egyptians.
Maybe white Europeans would have invented everything themselves
eventually, but judging by the Dark Ages, probably not.
As for cheapened, should I be more grateful to Steve Jobs for creating
the iPhone, or Alexander Graham Bell for inventing the telephone? Your thinking is bizarre.
