  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

To visualize the conclusion before measuring the path.. as though there is no wrong or right way to get to the destination. And then to say that Germans prefer the more precedented way versus the more self willed way.

But in all truth, is this a religious point of view, even within the levantine Arab lands and past cultures within their own precedented faiths of morals and goodness?

To get to the outcome with a self willed visualization without keeping to cultural precedences?

Sounds almost atheistic. Sounds almost like a despotic coup d'etat. And to need to be cordial towards such lifestyles or else possibly receive their wrath of hell or self for not being respected; how is this beneficial towards other lifes and cultures?

That has absolutely NOTHING TO DO WITH THE OP!

It's less expensive cooking at home.

What are you talking about and what does it have to do with anything that has been said in this thread except for these last two pages of self indulgent nonsense from newcomers to this thread who clearly have not read a single thing that has been said?!!?

The Latin (and Levantine) brain visualises the conclusion before it has collected all the premisses: it is therefore too intelligent to be archaeologically minded.
The Teutonic brain, on the contrary, ....


Do I agree that atheists are either latin or Teutonic?

Religious beliefs has nothing do with the OP claim that there are two races, the Latin and the Teutonic, making it a racial thing, which is something they've been espousing, and beyond, through the whole thread.

Actually make the effort to read more than just the single first post and see what is being discussed, or don't add a comment at all.

In this Christian forum, are we still trying to evaluate whether or not humans could have evolved from primates?

NOT WHAT IS BEING DISCUSSED. AGAIN: ACTUALLY READ THE THREAD OR DON'T COMMENT ON IT.

the Latin versus the Teutonic Brain

"The Latin (and Levantine) brain visualises the conclusion before it has collected all the premisses: it is therefore too intelligent to be archaeologically minded.
The Teutonic brain, on the contrary, is content to inspect all its hurdles before jumping them. It is willing to collect evidence even though it never draws any conclusions. And the mere collection of evidence was the first and greatest necessity before archaeology could become useful and effective. Winckelmann was a splendid instance of the unhurried Teutonic temperament brought into prolonged contact with the versatile and volatile humanistic traditions of Italy."
"That is one reason why it has taken so long to breed archaeologists among the Latin races of Europe to-day."
--Rhys Carpenter, Humanistic Value of Archaeology, Vol. 4, p. 3-4.

Anyone else think this is the truth?
And maybe see this as an explanation for the differences between the "Latin races of Europe to-day" and the Teutonic Germans?
What he means by intelligence: "It is difficult for a person of quick wit and lively intellect to become a good archaeologist."



Did Syria lose its former status because it was of levantine mindset?

Again: read the rest of the thread, or don't comment on it.

In fact, just don't comment at all. Your comments are absolutely not about what is being discussed here, so you're just wasting you time and everyone else's. Just leave.

No.

I think you're using nationalities as a wedge to split archaeology up into two different camps:

One camp using deductive reasoning, and the other camp using inductive reasoning.

And maybe see this as an explanation for the differences between the "Latin races of Europe to-day" and the Teutonic Germans?

No.

The Latinos came thru: Noah → Japheth → Javan → Tarshish → Latinos of Europe

The Teutons came thru: Noah → Japheth → Gomer → Ashkenaz → Teutons

What he means by intelligence: "It is difficult for a person of quick wit and lively intellect to become a good archaeologist."

What does DNA have to do with archeology?

Latinos are not the same as Latin.

Latin refers to anyone of Roman descent and/or anyone who speaks a Romance language, while Latino specifically refers to anyone in Latin America.

That's why I specified Latinos of Europe.

From AI Overview:

The term "Latinos of Europe" refers to European people whose languages, cultures, and history are derived from Latin, such as Spaniards, Portuguese, Italians, and Romanians.

Stop trying to disagree so quickly, or you'll confuse yourself.

That was actually a distinction I didn't know about since in Europe, or the UK at least, Latino is only ever used to refer to people from Latin America. We mainly just call the various groups as they are: Spanish, Portuguese, Italians, and Romanians.

So that's me learning something new.
