Why would you believe that the Primitive savages had any wisdom?

Take the Mayan 2012 calender doom thing, Who would you rather operated on you, a Mayan Witch doctor or a top surgeon? What is this "Ancients know the truth" thing all about?
Quoting: Richard EldritchWhy wouldn't you believe they had? Clearly they (the Mayans) had some impressive astronomical wisdom that we've only caught up with in the last century. The natives of South America developed incredible pharmacological tech in pyschodelics. The Hebrew Kabbalah provides a perfect map of the solar system. It's simply the hubris of modern science that rejects this wisdom. Quoting: Thelemic Messiah Well thats rubbish isn't it? to compare a few star gazers to scientist with space telescopes is absurd. Quoting: Richard EldritchWhy those stargazers had an understanding of astronomy that simply did not exist in Western Culture until the later part of the 20th century. You are wildly incorrect in your basic premise, Richard. A sorcerer should know better. Quoting: Thelemic MessiahOh Nonsense! They could oserve a few planets (not that they understood what a planet was of course) and some stars? hardly a theory of orbital mechanics is it?
