Contrary to the hubris and conceit of the West, Asia really is the cradle of civilization. I then ask why Asia has been the subject of much misconception, bias and prejudice. Some of them include one Western saying, “Europe’s most commonly stated defining qualities can be summed up under the two heads, moderation and diversity… exact opposites of Asia’s excess and uniformity.” Strong words that clearly dichotomize the two continents into binary opposites that bodes ill for Asia. Europe, they claim, is the forefront

Man is so predictable in his competitiveness. Our own puffed up self-importance pushes us to always one-up one another. Our blind need to be on top costs us so much. Then we have the real reason why Europe is insisting on that dichotomy, Fear. The West is scared in the most feral essence of the word; it fears Asia hence the insistence to pit and depict itself as the better candidate. The West holds forth the title of perpetuating the biggest scam in the world. The scam of subjugating everyone and brainwashing all to its one sided belief of superiority, dominance and power. It all boils down to those dictatorial concepts. Perhaps it fears Asia’s size. Perhaps it wants to squash the buds of rebellion about to be sown among their Asian conquests. Perhaps it wants to gratify their insurgent appetite for ascendancy. Perhaps it considered all three. Regardless of the reason, the conjecture appears to be more imagined than real. And this is the hard fact Europe must accept.

How our branch of the human race came to supplant its Neanderthal predecessors in the European peninsula and elsewhere may always remain a mystery. After this happened about 35,000 years ago, some 1200 generations were to pass before civilization, in the form of farming, spreading from the Middle East, began to supplant the hunter-gatherer economy of the Stone Age inhabitants of Europe.

And we can do that by eliminating all the language baggage that is associated with Asia. Let us ban all discriminatory words and works by non-Asians that reveal Western bias. If this happens then we could all be freed from this mangled maze of quagmiric proportions.

It was westward to this agricultural society—but also south-eastwards through Iran to India—that several millennia later successive waves of a people, whom we call Indo-Europeans, migrated from the steppes of southern Russia. Each of these waves brought with it another variant of this people's language—some seven or eight variants in all. These were the ancestral tongues of the languages that Europeans speak today.
