Anyways when I was researching information for my paper yesterday, I happened to stumble across this site. I find it very offensive as the author of this article is basically trying to prove his own Indian culture as superior to the Chinese claiming as if the Chinese owe their entire civilization to that of the Indians. While no one can deny that Indian culture has made a certain degree of influence on the Chinese culture, this agenda of this article is going to the extreme. Personally I think most of this article is nationalistic, propagandist drivel. What do you guys think?

Well, (as DaMo will confirm) there are lots of revisionist theories on how even BLACKS and WHITES 'created' Chinese civilization, or how Chinese civilization was the product of these influences. This however, is my first experience with Indians making such claims.

I hope this won't ruin your impression of Indian people. Many Indian people I know are much too intelligent to make up this kind of drivel, because they have enough confidence in their own heritage that they don't have to 'prove' their 'superiority' by trying to claim China as theirs (as some white/black racists do).
