   The best people can make such contributions by standing on the shoulders of their forebears
   
   Abbos didn’t have anything to stand on. so what if there was one Abbo who reached 90 IQ and invented the wheel? Nobody else in his humanoid pod would be able to understand and replicate it.
   
   Whites and to a lesser extent Asians are simply a superior people with superior reasoning and superior civilizational infrastructure.
   
   Isaac Newton needed the Royal Society. He could not have bequeathed us his insight without them. Same goes for all White inventions.
   
   The Abbos, niggers, Polynesians, melanesians, subcontinental Indians, berbers, red man… the list goes on… have nothing like White civilization or reason

     @jeffcliff @epictittus @Nils The Aboriginals of Australia lived on the island continent for something like 40,000 years, all in blissful isolation. No great wars of religion, no bloody battles inspired by schisms. 40,000 years with no invasions by outside barbarians or crusaders looking to impose their faith. Yet despite that the Aboriginals never advanced beyond the stone age, never grew beyond living in the dirt, eating grubs, and sometimes even eating their own children.
     
     Meanwhile it has been part of Christian dogma from almost the beginning that God is a logical being, and therefore His creation is also logical. That meant that, to the extent our limited intellect is able, we should be able to understand His creation through the application of reason
     
     This is a list of Catholic clergy throughout history who have made contributions to science. This list does not include lay members of religious orders, such as ordinary monks and nuns, brothers and sisters, or anyone in minor orders at such times that those were not considered clergy. It is nearly 300 entries long, including accomplishments ranging from things like inventing a bullet resistant vest in the early 1900's to creating predictive models to figure out the trajectory of hurricanes to various advances in mathematics, chemistry, geology, biology, astronomy, and even mechanics. All this stretching back to nearly the fall of the Roman empire. We are on the verge of reaching the stars precisely because of the scientific advances these deeply religious people made.

     @epictittus @Nils wtf is wrong with you
     
     the lesson here isn't history is dogshit' the lesson is 'we can reach the stars if we can raise our head above religious bullshit and keep from bashing eachothers heads in with rocks'
     
     Even the past ~116 years, ie over living memory of people alive today, there's been substantial advances, including the advancement of flying machines from "tinker workshop prototype" to the concorde and intelligent swarms of automated drones, advances in rocketry from little better than fireworkers and incendiary weapons to SpaceX Starship, from ignored mostly pipe dream & somewhat flawed architectural plans the building of functioning general purpose turing machines, from still mostly not-understood "playing with radioactive material" to modern nuclear science with its fruits (nuclear power, medical radioisotopes, etc) & tons of other advances that the generations of the 19th century would have considered almost if not magical
     
     there are people alive today who can tell you how *their* parents and grandparents lived going back further, to the mid 1800s and it *they* were making progress in the european (especially german) world.
     
     What you are doing is spitting in the face of centuries of primarily european progress.
