Your PP is quoting, apparently, from Hindutva websites that cherry pick studies and slant evidence.[/quote]

Yes honey. Definitely going to let Harvard know that their study debunking the Aryan invasion theory was actually a brainwashing experiment by Hindutva fanatics.[/quote]

No, the cherry picking of that particular study, and the interpretation of it you give, is from the Hindu fanatics. [/quote]

I'm not sure you understand what cherry-picking means? Correct me if I'm mistaken: are you writing a peer-reviewed article with academic sources cited from both sides of the issue at question in [i]your[/i] argument...or are you only citing sources that support [i]your[/i] position?

And what sources did you cite in your argument, by the way? Blogspot and magazines? Wow, you really put in some effort there pal.

[quote]I see what you did there. Again it is Aryan Migration.

And the Harvard study was a genetic study that was not probative of whether or not there was a migration. It is subject to differing interpretations. And there are other studies showing differing results, as is common in genetic studies.

Your dishonesty is showing.[/quote]

To be honest, I quoted that Harvard article originally to refute an earlier PP who argued the Aryan invasion theory. I wasn't arguing the migration theory for the out-of-India position. I don't give a shit about the out-of-India position because it's not relevant to yoga. I do give a shit about the Aryan invasion theory vs the Aryan migration theory, because [i]that[/i] argument is being used to attack the origins of yoga. Thanks for playing though.
