the two of you have basically expressed some of the clearest and well thought out logic in this post...
whichis more than i can say for Taharka and the other "quasi afrocentric {and im being so ironic here}" individuals whose continual and repetitive posts of hate and ignorance (no one said you had to agree but dont you get tired of always refusing to acnkowledge that not everyone agrees with you or your thought processes? et al.) really dont add up to much but show (at least to me) what is so inherently wrong with many learned folk of African descent and how we will continue to have difficulty progressing as a people....
besides, i find it hilarious that those who are showing the MOST dislike or hatred in this post are the most suspect closet cases at this site..makes youwonder...HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
