[quote]Originally posted by dharmon well, Kevin did respond, it so quite possibly you were writing in eskimo[:D] If questionable aquistion practices are the topic, then I'd venture to guess the half of the antiquities exhibits at most of the major European and American natural history could be challenged. Western explorers did a fair amount of looting in the 1700-1900s in the name of history and science. So is there a statute of limitations on that??? Was I referring to Kevin??? NO! Looting in the name of anything at any time is of course WRONG. SHAME on your western explorers. And SHAME on ANY museum that continues to HOARD artifacts that were NOT acquired legally and morally. Most countries have laws regarding the exploration for and the removel of antiquities. If an "explorer" breaks any one or several of these laws this person has then become (by common definition) a criminal. Well, dharmon, would I be correct in assuming (based on your statements above) that you believe two WRONGS do make a RIGHT. IF SO, allow me to take YOUR LOGIC to the next level.......thousands of murders were committed in the 1700-1900s. SO, are you saying that this fact justifies committing additional murders TODAY???
