Hi, I keep deleting your paragraph because you are not respecting the section headings. We're in the middle of a back and forth conversation and you're completely diverting the discussion. I'm already discussing this with you personally.--Urthogie 03:03, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
- We could infinitely go through sources, and the argument would never end. If you want to convince me stick to your evidence and prove its value logically.--Urthogie 14:36, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- First off, I love the soundtrack. Erykah Badu is one of my favorites. But youtube is not a scholarly source. I've provided sources for what I've said..and I'll deconstruct what you supply if its scholarly.--Urthogie 04:30, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- Some of them did look like this. Like I said, it was a mixed-race society.
- I won't discuss your opinion if you continue to accuse me of stalling. Show some respect, please, or I'll end this.
- I wanted the discussion on the talk page to continue. Someone else removed it.
- You are the one making claims right now. I don't need to source someone elses claims. That is not how an argument works. You do the work for youself, and I do the work for myself. Since I am not making a claim right now, it is your job (as the person that is making the claim) to provide sources. So far your sources have failed, so you think by asking me to provide sources you can win the argument.
- Please stop signing your name with spaces before it. It messes up the formatting.

a couple things
[edit]Why should I argue with you? Your whole argument is disorganized. There are parts of it that crumble just when looked at more closely. Why exactly would you present me with Menes as evidence, if he may have been a myth? Why would you present me with youtube, which is an argument based solely on images and no scientific explanation.
You continue to ask me questions which you could get answers to if you just looked on the discussion page for Racial characteristics of ancient egyptians. Do you need me to repeat and spoonfeed the arguments to you that have already been had, that you could easily read? Do you need me to repeat all of them to you? I already made clear what I thought the timeline was. I'm not repeating myself. It's a waste of time and energy.
This is why I don't want to argue with you. You're asking me to repeat arguments that have already been made, as if you're too good to read the page. You bring up evidence without having researched it. You use unscholarly sources. When you use scholarly sources, they don't agree with your viewpoint.
Your reply will of course be: Menes isn't my only proof. Yes, I know that. What I'm saying is I'm not your teacher or your professor. I'm not going to look through your weak evidence. I'm not going to repeat things I already said just to make it easier for you. I'm busy. I have a job in real life. When I'm "stalling" I'm actually doing things of significance, although this may surprise you. Should I really take time out of my workday to repeat every single argument I've already had with the anonymous IP on the talk page for Egyptian racial characteristics, already?
Message me back when you have studied enough to know what is strong evidence and what is weak. You're honestly wasting my time. How about you spend more than a day researching all of the viewpoints? It shows that you don't know very much about the history, and it's a drag to argue with you. At least when I was arguing with the anonymous IP, he knew his history extensively. Your knowledge of the subject is utterly lacking. Sorry, but this is the truth. You're wasting my time. Please study more.
I'm not saying this to avoid an argument. I love a good argument with someone who knows about a subject (like the anonymous IP). I hate an argument with someone who doesn't know history very well, who doesn't even research their own sources well, presenting me with myths as evidence, and accusing me of "stalling" and "lying". Please, please, please-- don't reply to this-- log off Wikipedia, and read more on Egypt. Thanks, --Urthogie 21:54, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Dear Viola76. Thank you for your invitation to discuss with me about ancient Egypt. I found your informations on "Nabta Playa" really enlightning and refreshing! I did not know about that. These discoveries constitute a big blow to the theory of the Mesopotamian origin of the Egyptian civilization. If you really want to discuss with me, please use my e-mail: lusalankuka@yahoo.fr Once more, thank you very much for all that you are bringing to the discussion on the "Racial caracteristics of the ancient Egyptians". I like your wide knowledge and your fine wisdom. Just continue to inform us. Peace be with you! Lusala lu ne Nkuka Luka--195.110.156.38 15:40, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
