Trivedi (London, United Kingdom)
those of you who are saying that this means that the ‘cradle of life’ began in China and not Africa are delusional. It still begn in Africa (in terms of bacterial form however, it would be Pangea). Though the birth of civisation remains as the Indus Valley civilisation of Mohenjo Daro, run by, ironically the Sindhus (ancient pagan Hindus).

那些说这意味着“生命的摇篮”起源于中国而不是非洲的人是在妄想。生命仍然发源于非洲。文明仍然诞生于摩罕吉达罗时期的印度河流文明。

has been there for millions years, but in contrast Indians are the offspring of invaders. That’s why the glory of ancient India history can’t explain modern India’s backwardness.
中国人已经存在几百万年了。比较起来，印度人是入侵者的后代。这就是古印度的辉煌历史没法解释现代印度落后的原因。
