Yeah because to make it so far as to be recognized as a "historian" by the main stream our nations liberal universities made sure he stays in lock step and doesnt get to far off the official story. You gather to listen to your history teachers aka clergy and read you history books and articles aka religious text and worship your favorite historic characters aka idols.

Right. So. We've confirmed that you know nothing about how historical research is conducted or how one studies the field. Good. Wonderful.

Can we end the thread now?
