I had a friend who talking about prehistory based on language evidence used dates.

I went up to him - you know as well as I do you can't just patch in dates.

Says he, I know, but I am in a History Department, I have to have dates.

So:

"No one exists free of context.
wow I said that backwards.
everybody exists as a member of their culture so in the west we are all christian and we are all pagan to some extent."

La di da. You are in Cultural Anthro and can no other. Ego te absolvo, Eppur si muove.

I cound and if you were linguistic I would vociferously dispute.
