Quote me an explanation... You didn't explain anything. You simply attempted to mockingly dismiss me.

Are you Armenian?

I wasn't arguing... I was trying to explain to you the "tactics" that are often used to discredit Western Armenia.

Thank you. I've contacted the Smithsonian Magazine about this website.
I don't know what aspect of it their lawyers will find the most offensive and actionable: the use of copyrighted text and photographs, or the altering of the original text to display bigoted ideology.

Neither, but they'll surely laugh at the notion.

What does this have to do with anything? I was calling out Bell because he knows exactly why he posted that crap about Gobekli Tepe. He's not as dumb as he looks, he knows it's in Cilicia.

I hope you are not as dumb as your writings (and I hope the person who wrote that CNN voiceover is not as dumb as his words). Urfa is not in Cilicia. Urfa is not in "historical Armenia". Not to mention that Gobekli Tepe predates the existence of Armenia by some 8000 years. I suggest you go live in Azebaijan - they love your sort of "history" there.

It looked to me (from other maps I googled) that it was awfully close to Cilicia too. If it's about Bell why in the world are you arguing with me?

And, if it's about Bell why in the world are you arguing with me?

I don't even know why you mad, bro...
I tried to explain what Bell was saying, I didn't take a position on it myself because if I did, it wouldn't be an informed one. Instead, I thought, "hmm interesting, I'll need to look into this" and moved on.
If you could override your gut reaction to be disagree with me on everything and actually read what I say, I don't think we'd argue nearly half as much. You don't like me because I'm a scientist, I'm a nontheist, and/or whatever else motivates your dislike and that's fine, you don't need to, but you shouldn't let it get the better of you. You read my posts looking for something to express opposition to and that's not a rational and unbiased approach to anything.

Don't think I didn't notice you changed your signature within minutes of me changing mine last week. You read my posts looking for something to express opposition to and that's not a rational and unbiased approach to anything.
