Because I study anomalies I'm forever picking holes in the 'accepted wisdom' which surrounds me on all sides.
Because I'm naturally obstreperous and argumentative, I get a great deal of pleasure from finding inconsistencies in our history and science, as well as subjects not dealt with here.
Anyone who shares my resentment at being told porkies* by well-paid academics will probably find the video I saw last night on Youtube very interesting indeed.
"AMERICAN TEXTBOOK LIES - everything your teacher got wrong."
Not for a moment do I suspect this only happens in the USA, I'm sure every country is 'selective' in what it teaches the kids regarding their history, with England having more to draw a veil over than I could shake a stick at.
If one studies Egyptology, it soon becomes apparent that academics are clinging to the wreckage of their earlier pronouncements in the face of insuperable evidence to the contrary.
Megalithic structures all over the world show that 'primitive' early man constructed what would barely be possible now.
The oldest race of which we know, the Sumerians, should be the most primitive, yet their astronomers identified Pluto, they had writing, theatres and many kinds of sophistication.
The pyramids, with their fantastic engineering and astronomical precision were built by enslaved farmers ........
Yeah - right.
But worst of all, our children are being taught a sanitised version of history which keeps them in ignorance of their past, and denies understanding of the present.
*"Porkies" -- cockney rhyming slang, pork pies = lies.
