Now THAT opens up a whole new area for discussion, doesn't it? Suppose that the Taliban discovered the Rosetta Stone instead of Napoleon. They would simply blow it up like they did the ancient Buddha sculpture. Then we would never know that the three languages are Greek, Egyptian hieroglyphics, and Demontic Script. As a consequence of that we would never know that the Egyptians were great poets, a socially redeeming trait that somewhat atones for their horrid treatment of others. I think the answer is we should work to preserve each other's rights and quit trying to usurp them. That's what I would like to do.
