I wonder what makes a Norwegian come down to Polynesia and think he can just start telling another people's history. I mean we don't go over there and tell them their history. Are they so ashamed of their own history that they have to come and try and be apart of ours?
What would be the point of it? Why do people even record an idiot attempt like it as something admirable.
Here's what it does, now theres an actual list of bad theory and poor researchers from Europe...I mean a long list...who's going to study under them? I'm not even mentioning the religious "Mormon" theories that have been laughed at.
Did you know Polynesian Mormon wards and other very mainland Mormon wards teach different gospels. It means someone changed the teachings to fit Polynesian culture and lied to the Mormon head wards that they were "converted".
More like Mormon teachings were converted by Polynesians so that Mormons would be allowed to stay in the islands. Not sure how you make a 6-7ft cannibal to think he's inferior to a missionary man who can't even bathe daily.
It is very true. The Polynesian Mormon Gospel differs from what they call "the Palangi Wards". This isn't racist, it's just fact.
Long ago, the Mormons could not convert Polynesians, in the sense of the word "Convert", so what they did was change the gospel teachings in that ward, and then had their own traditional ward teachings some where else.
Polynesian wards do not teach that people of color are inferior, yet if you go to wards in say Oklahoma, those wards will. Which I think should actually be illegal, or the church being sued.
Why was he an idiot. Well Norway really has no interesting world history. Not one single invention. Naturally an idiot like him would try to go to place far away where his people have no clue of, and then make frauded claims. It's good really to have it published that he comes from liars, opportunists, scammers, frauders, and racists.
