I'm a History Professor at Canisius college

Small world. I studied at St. Bonaventure for a semester. Transferred out because the tuition was more than my parents had.

Which one are you?

Do you ever counter the many that now say we don't even know if He existed

or just ignore them?

Very cool

I gravitated to war and strategies of war at a young age as well

Especially Thermopylae... Which is still one of my favorite subjects

He is obviously a young, brilliant kid.. maybe West point and he can be the future General Patton

He cannot bring any evidence forward because anyone who has a brain knows that Germans suffered a labor shortage and created slave labor camps. The idea that they were actively trying to murder their slave laborers is one held by complete morons. If a college professor believes any of this actually occurred then they are even worse than a moron.

David Irving is the only investigative journalist who has published books worth reading on the topic, the only one who decided to actually research the topic with facts instead of quoting false propaganda.

He found the detailed death lists from all German Labor camps in the library of congress and guess what? THE HOLLYWOOD HOLOCAUST NEVER HAPPENED!

During the Civil War did the southern members of Congress vacate their seats as their states seceded?

Secondly, immediately after the war was over, did they return? Seems like that would have caused some difficulties.

Typical response. Of course it looked bad to the soldiers coming, but they probably didn't understand what they were seeing. Did you talk to all 6 million survivors?
Where are the bodies, prof? Seeing a picture of 1000 bodies in a ditch is not the same as 6 million.
BTW, your spelling sucks. Shear? Brang? Ignorance?

What about 911 prof?

Yes I do counter them

I also teach that it's a fact he lived in my Roman classes

You left out discuss voraciously - he seems to think I am a walking encyclopedia so we spend a lot of time doing research on google in regard to his questions. I majored in History a million years ago before dropping out of college - I tend to do a lot of Anthropological leaning reading - I am interested in new developments that are changing how we look at the world - like the discovery of Gobekli Tepe, Turkey - and mourn the lack of funding to continue deeper research into some of the ancient finds here in our own country.

I think there is some politics involved. For example they don't seem very willing to publish the DNA results of the 7,000 year old recovered brain material from the Windover Pond site in Central Coastal Florida. There are internet claims the DNA is of European decent but that would really bust up the Bearing Land Bridge theories all to hell.

I find stuff like this frustrating. For years they would never consider preClovis finds because they did not fit the dogma. Anyway this is my kind of History interest, my son is more mainstream.

The "professor" seems to be the blind leading the blind.

I don't have that many spelling errors on this thread and forgive me I type from my phone without autocorrect

I'm trying my best for good grammar from my phone

I'm 100% German

And my grandfather left Germany to fight with the Americans

The Holocaust happened

Listen to me, and I mean this seriously. My son's Germanic leanings are pretty evident - Patton is not who I fear he might become if you catch my drift.

He is not a normal 7th grader - he stares at the World Map and asks me things like "What is North Korea thinking, they are about the size Maine and they think they are going to defeat a super power?" LOL

I think he will pursue this for the long haul - I hope we can find him a college where he can aggressively study this topic and avoid some of the SJW Safe Space culture that seems to permeate out of Colleges these days.

We live in Gainesville Florida which is a college town - I wish we could start a meet up group - a "History club" so to speak - or that I could expose him to more like minded people. He got into a conversation with an adult about WW2 and I was just blown away. He is not aspie strange about his interest its was more a collaborative conversation. I am sure a lot of mom's feel this way - but my kid is pretty cool.

Thanks for the reply...I thought it would divide by republican/democrat...Why do you think there would be more regions?

He is definitely special

As for Germanic leanings... I'm 100% German so I catch your drift

I'm related to General Casimir Pulaski... Founder of the American cavalry

I know what it's like to just have "that" flowing through your veins

Whatever that is, your kid and I possess it

To stay abreast of the thread.
One of my sons has a PhD in Political Science, and teaches at a medium sized State university. I'm sure he must also keep his conservative viewpoints to himself--I'm rather surprised that you named your college, but thanks for posting.
What dialect uses "brang" instead of "brought"?

So you are saying only 6 million people were killed? How many people were estimated genocided in WW2? How many summary executed? My grandpa saw the concentration camps. I think you are just being a troll anyway. Jusf your intention. Have a constructive conversation and stop derailing the thread.

Because the nation isn't perfectly split east/west, north/south, Republican/Democrat

It would most likely be the region of NEW ENGLAND

THE GREAT LAKES

THE DEEP SOUTH

TEXAS AND SOUTHWEST

EAST COAST

LIBERAL WEST, NORTH WEST COAST

Honestly I'm a little buzzed

Been a long day

My grammar's usually top notch

Interesting..I could picture midwest, southwest, northeast, and great lakes as regions.

OP - I have a question for you - let me try and articulate it -
When a site is discovered and they bring in the Anthropologists and Archeologists - how does that work with the pure field of History? Do you cross reference - kind of round table?

How does that work - when say a MAJOR discovery like Gobekli Tepe, in Turkey changes so much. Do historians wait on the published accounts of the field sciences?

What would happen if they did publish DNA results from Windover Pond and they were of European decent? Everything changes! Do you find/see the resistance sometimes to admit to evidence because the change in History would be so large?

Sorry if this seems mundane - this nit picking questioning ^^^

We are Germanic of West Prussian Era - they all came over around 1850 from that line in the tree. I did 2 separate DNA studies and was surprised to see for myself complete and total Northern European genes with just a tiny smidge of Asian (Mongol?) We are Haplogroup H16 which is rather new group that seems to be clustered in the Eastern Region of Germany. There is a warrior blood in our veins - I can feel it in myself.

On my Son's paternal side he has Ancestors that came over on the boat AFTER the Mayflower - I've got that information written down for him. The English were very good about their record keeping so that line goes very far back on the other side.

Interesting thread OP, for me anyway. Thanks for the conversation.

The Left Coast (California in particular) seems the most firmly defined as being on a different page then most of the rest of the United States but my friend out there swears there is a TON of red down the Eastern side of that state.

Historians used to live in fear of finding new evidence that would dramatically change history

I would say there is still a fear but it isn't as great as it once was

If they find European genes at windover pond and they can confirm it 100% they will release their findings

I just thought of something my self. How are these possible regions going to affect peoples family vacations? What would it look like for a family of four from the Midwest visiting the grand canyon I. This scenario?

Thanks for posting and participating in this thread OP.

Very GLP question for you: Thoughts on the globally professed story of a great flood, in addition to beings coming to their respective civilization and teaching them things, even though there was no communication between these civilizations?

Finally, what's your thought on the "flower of Life" symbol showing up around the world in ancient civilizations?

Thanks again, I look forward to reading your take on these subjects.

Agreed and New York is so liberal too.

Ok this right here ^^^ these are my kind of History questions!

NY State? Or NYC? Lot of rural, probably red in that State too.
