Is it any better to slaughter people by the thousands for entertainment, like the romans did in the Circus Maiximus to the criminals, barbarians, christians (not catholics) than to do it for religious beliefs?

As for the wheel, it simply had no use in rainforest terrain and in the Andes. It's just impractical. A sledlike cart would suit the environment a lot better.
Necessity is mother to industry (invention or imagination). Their technology was perfectly adequate to their environment, where they were light years ahead of the West in biotechnology (shaman or medicine-man's knowledge and use of herbs and infusions and mind-altering substances) and architectural techiniques (Notre Dame is trully beautifull, but aside from some vitral colors we still cannot reproduce to this day, but Machu Pichu is a lot older, mechanically unexplained and impossible to reproduce to this day in its masonry techniques if not just the enigma on how they got the boulders up there in the first place).

The actual age of some of the Pyramids in South America and Egipt is still an ongoing debate. Remember I'm not giving props to south americans on rock size, quarring techniques and transportation logistics. I'm talking deep masonic knowledge here. I'll try to find a picture of what I'm talking about.

Bring it on. I'm on Fire.... (baby's on fire, better throw her in the water...)

I prefer Marijuana, beer, a steak and a blow-job to Ecstasy, Coca-Cola, Big Mac and a porn video. And with that phrase alone, I win and you're all my bitches.




p.s. sure, I'll have a coke, burger and a wank as often as anyone else, but I know where my priorities lie and don't doubt my preferences for a second. :P
