Re: Uralic Continuity Theory (was: Meaning of Aryan: now, "white peo

I am amazed that such a simple question could arouse this much venom.

Should not Snorri's testimony be weighed with the other evidence?

Though the Bible may present self-serving stories in general, does anyone
actually doubt that a sizable number of Semites were once in Egypt? and
subsequently left for Palestine?

The classical testimony for Troy was denigrated until it was actually found.

George, it is too nice a day to work yourself up.
