The simple fact is that living as a hunter/gatherer is very difficult. There is a reason that people crave the material culture of modern Western Civilization. Watching your child die after contracting an infection that could be easily cured by antibiotics is no fun.

@OKWTFN: Nothing of the sort. I never assume I "know better."
I was merely looking for a discussion of paleo-anthropology.
The turn that this discussion took is not on my radar.

@HoraceGreenley: you replied with an arguement against the point of the post- you simply didn't have a strong enough arguement to hold up against the real emotional context of it- telling another person that having their culture and way of life stripped from them by force- and having many of their family murdered and exploited- was actually better for them because they have now been gifted with modern day technology- and they should appreciate it- regardless of what they sacrificed or continue to sacrifice doesn't really hold strong in one's heart- I don't think you can make an intellectual arguement for it

When anybody walks into a culture different from their own and view the people as inferior to themselves they only expose their own ignorance- and yet generations later it continues against many cultures
