Eurocentricity: Many of the Maya elders I met in the past few years, commenting on the "decipherment.: "They never bothered to ask if we know our own writing/our own writing? "

Thank god Jesus was resurrected. If he was buried, he would be turning, twisting in his grave in grief looking at the ways of Christianity.

Yucatan is not Central America; it is North America.

So WHEN did Diego de Landa do this? You do not include any dates in to pinpoint his gross misdeeds...

Unfortunately because of the majority that don't know any better and continue to push false information out there and the false knowledge of Christianity gets spread and the results are hate between peoples. First and foremost ANYONE CLAIMING TO KILL STEAL AND DESTROY in the name of Yahweh is A COMPLETE DEMON an ANTICHRIST. Jesus's message is a message of love, Hope faith reception and tolerance but the majority of unbelievers and the majority of religious radicals alike don't understand the truth because they either don't educate themselves or choose to manipulate the truth in order to get away with evil. SECOND CATHOLICS ARE ABSOLUTELY NOT CHRISTIANS they are the furthest from true christianity they are more like religious atheists. These people who did these evils in the name of God are plagued with hate and use the bible as a cover up to accomplish their wickedness. And for those who are ignorant about God just know one thing just because some lunatics use God's name to do evil doesn't make them Christians so stop generalizing CHRISTIANS. True believing Christians will always be the persecuted, mistreated and oppressed they are not the ones doing the mistreating, oppressing or persecuting. So the next time some false fool uses Gods name to do evil you will know that person is an antichrist not a Christian

Your “Intolerance Meme” link appears to be broken.

When the people of the Inca conquered Chan Chan, they destroyed all the quipu remembering strings so there would be no history but their own. Are we not all brothers?

Wikipedia: The word meme is a neologism coined by Richard Dawkins.[11] It originated from Dawkins' 1976 book The Selfish Gene. Dawkins's own position is somewhat ambiguous: he welcomed N. K. Humphrey's suggestion that "memes should be considered as living structures, not just metaphorically"[12] and proposed to regard memes as "physically residing in the brain". Later, he argued that his original intentions, presumably before his approval of Humphrey's opinion, had been simpler.[ So how did the Catholic Church Have an Intolerance Meme, before the word meme was invented?

The intolerance meme is an interesting concept, believable, especially among colonial Spaniards as among contemporary fundamentalists (Christians). It's also been called colonization and an epistemicide, notably by scholar Grosfoguel, the Western destruction of its "competitors:" Africans, Muslims, Jews, Women, and Mesoamericans. The colonization in the Americas is alive and well and its children are leading Black Lives Matter, Immigrant rights, Ethnic Studies in schools... movements to decolonize ALL of us, movements we should all get behind, regardless of race, class, gender. The world needs more informed, intelligent AND compassionate people.

So, I agree that this man destroyed knowledge of written Mayan due to his perception of right and wrong.

I do not agree with the author's attribution of the "intolerance" idea to Judaism. Judaism has always been a religion for Jews. Jews don't expect or push Jewish requirements on others. Judaism always acknowledged other deities. It requires that Jews put our God first. Not that others do.

The idea that this should be spread to everyone is a uniquely Church concept. I deliberately say Church, because I do not believe it is truly Christian to push religion on other people.

Yeah, let us bash Catholicism some more. DeLanda's writings were invaluable to the history of the Conquista, but let's entirely ignore that to bash one billion Roman Catholics.

Isn't it nice then that the Maya also wrote on stone, on vessels and on bone? The ENTIRE language was not destroyed. This is just sensationalist drivel.

"Some one out there up in the secret ranks is trickling valuable occult information to some of us using the social media to do so; like throwing bread crumbs on a path in the woods in some twisted hopes that others might take notice - how else would you intervene in the matters of men if you were an alien? Radio, Internet, You Tube, Facebook! Personally, I doubt that the lost manuscripts to the Dresden Codex et. al. were "ordered to be burned" just because the Church thought that they possessed "demonic" content - the Church might be an organization full of murderous self-righteous thieves etc. but they are NOT stupid. They have the texts. I suspect that they are all kept in the vaults of our favourite place on Earth, the Vatican - but closed off to the rest of the world. Oh, sure - they will digitize SOME of their prized possessions to be made accessible online, in order to make it look like they are acting generous, but surely they won't so easily let go of the best ones. Not yet, at any rate. But why?" https://newlemurians.wordpress.com/2016/09/03/our...

The funny thing is, that the passage in Exodus 20 called the Second Commandment, carries the self-evident truth that it is foolish to worship a false god, and proof, in the line "I am a Jealous God" that its own god is either false, or that there are other Gods. The prelude to the first "Commandment" appears to have been refuted twice, once by Ingersoll's observation that ancient Hebrew and Egyptian have no words in common, and more recently by the honest Israeli archaeologists sent by David ben Gurion to the Sinai, who found no evidence whatever of the tale told in Exodus.
