Excerpts from "The Dying God." (Linvingston 2002)
"It is an unfortunate coincidence that studies of the Indo European
language community flourished at a time when nationalism, and a
tendency to see history in racial terms, was on the rise in Europe.
There was no blinking the fact, in the nineteenth century, that most
of the world was dominated by Europeans or people of European
descent. The easiest explanation for this was that Europeans, or at
least most members of the European family, were genetically superior
to people's of darker complexion. It was thus a welcome discovery
that the ancient Greeks and the Persians were linguistically, and
therefore one could assume biologically, "related" to the modern
Europeans. The same racial stock, it appeared had been in control of
the world since Cyrus conquered Babylon. This stock was obviously the
white race. INDIA, IT IS TRUE, PRESENTED A PROBLEM, AND REQUIRED A
SEPARATE EXPLANATION. ARYANS HAD INVADED INDIA NO LATER THATN THE
SECOND MILINNUM BC, AND SUCCEFULLY IMPOSED THEIR LANGUAGE ON THE
ABORIGINAL POPULATION, BUT THE ARYAN RACE HAD EVIDENTLY BECOME
STERILE IN THAT SOUTHERN CLIME AND WAS EVENTUALLY SUBNMERGED BY THE
ABORIGINAL AND INFERUIR STIOCK OF THE SUBCONTINENT (emphasis added,
Drews 1988 in Livingston 2002, p. 8)."
"Nevertheless fueled by an obstinate nationalism, Europeans denied
their essential absence from history, and by grossly misrepresenting
the facts, artistically created an ancient past, placing themselves
far back in time, as far back as the beginning of human history and
in the ranks of the great civilizations (Livingston 2002, p. xi).
Such ideas are commonplace even today even though the rhetoric is
much milder. After quoting two very contemporary mainstream scholars
McNeil (1986) and Roberts (1995) as examples, Livingston (2002)
concludes, "it is difficult to fathom that, in a society that
considers itself as liberal and as morally progressive as our own,
modern scholars present ideas as blatantly offensive as these. These
theories are not the rabid ravings of neo-Nazi fanatics. These are
the purported sober theories of mainstream intellectuals. However,
their claims are no different than the lunacies formerly upheld by
Hitler (p. 16)."

That's spelled Livingstone. A crank historian who thinks it's all the
Rothschilds and the Illuminati. Perfect fodder for Kelkar, who reads
the books that are too hard for J-Doc.
