The Greeks had the greatest ancient civilization. All of those
thousands of years the black savages in Africa were just savages
contributing nothing to the world.

Greeks did nothing but quarrel and fight, the Athenian democracy
was impossible without the enslavement of captives taken in often
cowardly raids on other more peaceful peoples.

Thomas Jefferson studied Aristotle and used his philosophy when he wrote
our Constitution. (He was the primary author.)

The Greeks put vowels in the alphabet which made language a lot more
useful.

Mind you, I even LIKE the Romans, and Latin, which I studied for
5 years and can still SPEAK conversationally!

Latin is a dead language. Not anyone speaks it. Some priest use it in
their services. Some people learn it in order to increase their
vocabulary. Many English words are derived from Latin. Reminds me of
so many blacks who say they have a college degree and you ask them from
where and they say "University of Wedowee" or something like that which
not anyone has ever heard of. When you ask them where it is, they say,
"Wedowee, AL". Of course, no such university exist.
