Isn't supporting the most technologically advanced civilization the most pro-science stance you can take? Why do some "scientists" place their emotions above progress?

Because science isn't about progress, it's about knowledge for its own sake. A civilization destroyed is knowledge lost, which in the mind of the knowledge absolutist is more of a tragedy than any number of lives they might have brutally ended.

science =/= technology
technology is detrimental to science as the dependence of the latter on the former eventually turns science from an aesthetic endeavour of bored aristocrats into a bug hive of government rats who sell their souls for grants and sacrifice genuine curiosity for applicability.

There is no such a thing as "agnostic". He was an atheist. Simple as.

He would separate those two things and call it a great tragedy.

I was really angry at him when I found out the Hypatia story is all made up.

and completely ignoring the fact that aztecs and mayans destroyed all their neighboring civilizations which is how they rose to prominence to begin with. just more reflexive jewish hatred of whites, its part of their dna or something.

When did he ever say he despised conquistadores? Here he's just making a point about convergence. Or is it an implication that they could potentially have become like Europeans on their own that makes you rage?

Evidence? (That it wasn't only of criminals/prisoners of war)

honestly it was probably morally justifiable to burn the religious texts of all these civilisations
anything that produces a society that raids nearby villages and towns to fuel human sacrifices is probably not worth keeping around

It's both. Like how race means a competition to see how does something faster, and it also means subspecies.

Sagan also propagated the myths that the "Dark Ages" halted technology for centuries and that Hypatia died heroically trying to save the Library of Alexandria...

It's not a myth, it's a fact.

Did you even question what is used to gauge "scientific advancement"? You're likely some sheltered office faggot who never bothered thinking about progress in areas like metallurgy and agriculture because you take it for granted.

I always think its hilarious how semites, who are an asian race, are so desperate to be considered White. There isn't even a single semite nation that borders on Europe. Why are semites so concerned about being seen as White?
Is there something wrong with being asian?

You don't even need to think about it, you can just go to a museum and compare the shit from the dark ages and Roman Empire. It is extremely painful to see the level of regression even compared to Ancient Greece.
