Yes, indeed.
And your last post was such a tremendous contribution to the discussion.
"I can't decide which topic you know less about - Christ's philosophy or Australian contact history.
Go read something on both topics (after you've finished reading about the White Australia Policy)."
I know plenty about all three topics, thanks.
Not the whitewashed, cherry-picked versions you prefer to believe in because they support your pre-existing mental complexes.
No, the real stuff.
The real Jesus. Not the "sunshine and lollipops" propaganda.
The real contact history.
Not the guilt trip overexaggerations.
Yes, others came before Cook, but they didn't settle here did they?
And, for the most part, both British and Aboriginals *ignored* each other.
If it had been the Germans in 1939 (and let's face it, *somebody* would have turned up eventually), we wouldn't be discussing this, as there wouldn't be a single black left alive.
The real White Australia Policy.
Which was never called such by anybody but pinko posers.
"White Australia" was about preserving our culture, which just happens to be "white" (for want of a better word).
You think race can be disconnected from culture.
Nowadays, maybe. If you are born into a culture unrelated to your biological ancestry.
But even today, that applies to very few of the billions of people on Earth.
In 1901, race *was* culture.
Race is body. Mind requires body. Culture requires Mind.
They all go together.
So if you want "culturally" restrictive immigration, you will, by default, have "racially" restrictive immigration, because if you want to keep out an unrelated "culture", you'll have to keep out the minds and bodies (race) of the people with that culture.
DUH!
Reading books is all you do apparently.
Do you actually *reflect* on anything you read, or is the accumulation of more and more "knowledge" an end in itself.
Knowledge isn't wisdom.
True wisdom may be admitting you know nothing for certain.
So I guess you'll never be wise, as you think you already know everything.
