Proud Boy Jose'

As a decedent of the colonisers, what you believe is of little consequence, its racially motivated, your history of lies and deceit on the forum for all things aboriginal is testimony to that. You choose to be ignorant of the meaning of aboriginal, I can't believe you are that dumb.

aboriginal
adjective
1.
relating to the indigenous peoples of Australia or their languages.
"she's been working with Aboriginal people for the past 40 years"
2.
inhabiting or existing in a land from the earliest times or from before the arrival of colonists; indigenous.

aboriginality assuming their is such a word, a noun for one in the state of being aboriginal.

A women gets off a plane, 5 minutes later has a baby on the tarmac at the airport, according to you that new born child is aboriginal. Really!

Hi Foxy,

More importantly is there a test for "Aryaness", just to put these guys minds at ease.

That's true for my wife there is no DNA test for Maori, the test returns ones Polynesian make-up, hers is 80%, along with other racial qualities, including Asian. Just as there is no test for "Australianess" there's no test for "Aboriginalness". These drongo's will be wasting their time swabbing peoples mouths against their will, to determine what exactly?

"You don't need to be good at everything and I would argue sophistication in many ways has had a negative impact on people's lives and the planet overall."

Really Nathan? Yes, all 8.1 billion of us. I've heard estimates that the world might support as many as 10 million hunter gatherers, ruled of course by the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

I thought the idea of shaming people for eating meat or having pets was a bit of navel gazing, but that statement is on another planet altogether Nathan, maybe even in another universe.

Well, time to line up for your DNA test Indy. I want ALL aged welfare beneficiaries tested, as I believe many are claiming money and benefits they are not actually and morally entitled to.

The DNA of aboriginals in Australia has been sequenced and can be identified.
ABORIGINALITY CAN BE DETERMINED BY DNA. Some want to deny such because they claim aboriginality benefits.

ttp://www.latrobe.edu.au/news/articles/2017/release/dna-study-of-indigenous-australians
"La Trobe University researchers have completed the largest and most comprehensive mitochondrial DNA study of Aboriginal Australians in a bid to better understand their ancestry."
"
"DNA samples of 594 self-declared Indigenous Australians from around the country were analysed and classified into mitochondrial haplogroups - genetic groups that share a common ancestor and often show a distinct distribution."

The findings have been published in the Journal of Human Genetics.
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-10-26/dna-of-extinct-human-species-pacific-islanders-analysis-suggests/7968950

"Mr Bohlender's findings are supported by an earlier study from the University of Cambridge which sequenced the genome of 83 Aboriginal Australians from the Pama-Nyungan-speaking language group, which covers 90 per cent of the continent, and 25 Highland Papuans.

It revealed Papuan and Aboriginal ancestors left Africa around 72,000 years ago and then split from the main group around 58,000 years ago.

They reached the supercontinent of 'Sahul' that originally united Tasmania, mainland Australia and New Guinea around 50,000 years ago, picking up the DNA of Neanderthals, Denisovans and another extinct hominin along the way'.
