They caught this guy finally, and authorities said no racial slur was used. [Hidden Content] Wish they would have charged him with a hate crime. Had to go to page 5 to find this thread.

Wow

So he proved you wrong...but you're doubling down?

I think you said it right there. That's why most experts agree he looked middle eastern. He looked like an average Jewish man of that time. I mean, the Romans had to get an informer to point him out in the group of disciples. They looked so similar that the Romans couldn't tell them apart.

I feel like if we send them to school then there should be football. I guess my opinion is that if it's safe enough for school, then it's safe enough for sports. I hope anyways...

That's...not true. No one knows for sure but most experts agree that he looked like what a modern middle eastern man looks like. Tan, maybe dark tan, but still Tan

Heck, classrooms probably can't socially distance 10-15 kids if the rules are followed. Honestly.

And at the small schools it really wouldn't save the school that much money. So why do it? I understand the bigger schools doing it because that's a lot more money. But I say if it was already in the budget why mess with it. Give it a year and see..

Lol understand completely.

Good talk anyways @Setx fan, we need more of this on this site instead of all the bickering. I'm going to bed, I'll check back in again tomorrow.

That's why I said "I'd imagine", because it's just a guess on my part there. Don't know if anyone could prove one way or another on that, know it would be tough.

With you 100% on this.

Only some Egyptians were really dark (upper Egypt) though. And some were more like what Middle Easterners look like today (lower Egypt). Then you had some that were almost completely black (Nubians). And all of those groups held power at some point until the Greeks took over. Ancient Egypt was a mixture of many things, don't lump them all together.

Pretty sure he got pushed into that decision and regrets it now.

I understand. I was just trying to help you out. If you look into it most Biblical scholars agree that the Ancient Hebrews looked like any other tan middle eastern. As for them running to Africa, I'd imagine that's part of why Northern Africa is pretty much peoples of Middle Eastern decent. But you've got to understand that while 70ish CE (new version of AD) seems like a long time ago...the Hebrews have a written history stretching back to the beginning of human history. The Hebrews were slaves in Egypt during it's hight...around 2500 BCE (new version of BC) give or take. And they had a good bit of written history before that! 70 CE is petty recent when you look at it that way.

Don't get where you're going?

That's a good point also.

Yeah that's what I'm saying...someone is going to abuse the rule. I hope nobody does but...

I know about the War...I read Tacitus 10 years ago (more or less). Don't remember the escape to Africa but it's been a while, but if they did what about it?

I dunno, wouldn't a VPN kill that argument?

Is it just me, or does it seem like this could be abused badly?

No, I have read some on the Wars during that time though...why?

The same tan that most of the middle east has...yes.

Do a little research, it's pretty close. I'm not being flippant either, just trying to give you a picture.

This is where I am, especially the small schools.
