Occurs in New Zealand in Maori people at around twice the rate as it does in Non Maori (AKA mostly White New Zealanders).

It's funny how this is never mentioned on the news etc, even after the people just got convicted for the last murder of a child -- she was abused overa number of months until she finally died.

I personally think the Maori situation needs to be addressed before more children die, but this is seen as racism, right?

I think media coverage is always over-sensitive about political correctness, but media's only a small portion of what needs to be done.

And child abuse goes ignored to some extent everywhere in the world.

They might be the real Aryans.  
Aryan language --> Aryans

 


Genetics aren't passed by language...

Read the link and the quoted text. It really helps when you try to argue something.
Then it's just the linguistic definiton - my exact thoughts.

Aryans? Nope.

Aryan influence? Probably.

They are also aryans!!!
No.

They had an Aryan influence (India) but what makes you think they're Aryan? What distorted definition are you using?

Maori spoken in New Zealand, and also the earlier Moriori tongues, also form part of the Malaop-Polynesian group, and are related to Indonesian (Bahasa), just as English and Hindi are related through the (younger) Northern Sanskrit languages which formed the Indo-European family.


http://www.geocities.com/riThe Maori also share the S. Indian flood tales, associated with Agastya. According to Bhagavata - Manu Satyavrata was a Dravida (S.Indian) King that sailed into Himalayas after the last flood, along with the Rishis. Dravida lands include Gujerat and Tamil Nadu - where ancient Kingdoms, some 7000 years old have recently been found under the waters.

The Maori tale states Maui (counterpart of Manu) pulled New Zealand out of the sea in the form of a Fish - relating to the Vedic tale of Manu and the fish, Matsya, who saved him. Maori, hence, also trace back to Manu Satyavrata - linking them, once again to Vedic mythology and Asia.

The Supreme of Maori society was known as "Ariki", which meant Chief, Leader or Priest. It can hence be related to the term for Vedic Kshatriyas (warriors) and Brahmins (priests) - 'Arya' or Aryan, which denoted a noble - a common term used to denote the great Vedic peoples.

lol@ ridiculous attempt to put ppl in racial category ven if it doesn't fit.
It does fit.

They are mixed Mongoloid and Australoid - yet they are predominantly Australoid, therefore they are group under the Australoids (homogenously mixed though).
