Originally posted by pinguin The Natives of Chile are mainly Mapuches, which was a culture less developed culture than the Peruvians. They were mainly farmers, that didn't build cities, and lives a simpler life. However, they were also the best warriors of Southern South America, that not only combat the Spaniards but stopped them.

Why is it always a must to have somekind of a warrior past to mesure the worthyness of a nation?
Personally what I have heard from the veterans I just wonder how people survive those conditions.

The peopl who support you in middle and old age are immigrants now, not your own children.   Well, I know that since long time ago, because I lived in a developed country, that most Europe and North America is quite happy to become extinct.   In Latin America people still fight to have children no matter is getting quite expensive. We still preffer our own kind rather than import foreigners to pay our welfare checks when we get old. However, the influence of the decadent mentality of the west in our people is a matter of concern by now.   Things happenes because a reason. Perhaps its time other people, who love life more, take the control of the situation. In the past, when Romans become decadent they were replaced by the German barbarians and that produced a renewal of the society. Today peoples of the third world are getting ready to take mankind to the next step.    Pinguin

Originally posted by think Race and ethnicity are before all culturally determined. So if people feel like mestizos and behave like mestizos they are mestizos. Genetical background is completely irrelevant Ever hear the term Wigga?? If you act Black an talk Black does that make you Black, no it doesnt. What do you mean completely irrelevant I think i understand what your saying, but i just think you get it man, you need to get out more bro. People get laughed at for acting like something theyre not theyre called wannabes...

You're right there. Let me refrase the way I view ethnicity: If you feel like a certain ethnicity, behave like that etnicity and are accepted by other people of that ethnicity, you have that ethnicity.

I really don't see why not getting children is decadent.

On the other hand, I may even argue that having chilren is selfish. For example, it can perfectly be defended that it's very selfish to have children in order to have your old age guaranteed. Also the world is already overpopulated, more people will only put a bigger stress on the environment, space and natural resources. Just think of it this way: not having a child equals recycling everything you use during your entire life.
