The entire timescale of when the Zulus moved down into south Africa was changed to make it seem like theyve been here far longer than they have, the genocide of the original civilisation of eastern south Africa by the Zulus wasn't even mentioned, the motivations and actions of Shaka Zulu was rewritten to make him out as a hero, instead of a genocidal maniac worry of a bond vilain. The anglo-boere war was covered in about 1 class, and most if it was wrong, the early history of the cape was entirely skipped, we went from the initial explorers finding it, straight to 250 years later when the great trek happened, the San people (the original people of south africa) and their interactions with Anglos were skipped, we went into a lot of detail about Zulu culture, but having grown up amoung Zulus I could tell a lot of it is wrong, it was like a romanticised version of their culture, I doubt the teacher even knew a single traditional Zulu. Other Bantu tribes were mentioned, but even those that had major Influince in shaping early south Africa were skipped, or made out to be bad guys. I think my teacher had a massive girl boner for Zulus or something.

In many countries it's extremely hit and miss if you get ethanol that is fit for human consumption, and the ones that are won't advertise it so as not to be subjected to an incredible amount of tax.

When my family settled in eastern south Africa in the mid 1800s whites outnumbered blacks 10:1. After the industrial revolution we needed more workers and blacks came here from the north for work, and in early 1900 we hit 60% black population. Now 100 years later we are 8% white and shrinking. It's such a perfect example of how populations get replaced, and history then gets rewriten, and you can see it in a sped up state in America and Europe right now.

I was thought a lot of bullshit especially during history and economics lessons.

A history teacher told us we'd run out of oil within a couple of decades in the early 2000s and that we'd tell our grandchildren about the oil age where we still had oil while the world runs on coal power, absolute bullshit about a year after he said that we found 400 years worth of oil in Venezuela.

The second retarded thing was a teacher talking about overpopulation in economics. Telling about how humanity will have 20 billion people in the 2010s.

So are natural numbers (see peano axioms).
Look around you, and see if you can find the number "two" anywhere in your surroundings. No, not "two of a certain object" this would just be a mental crutch to conceptualize "Two".
"Two" simply doesn't exist outside the abstract realm, in that regard there is no fundamental difference between 2 and -2 or i.

Macroevolution is considered a valid theory because there is no other explanation for why all the species that ever existed on earth didn’t exist at the same time. As the oil, gas, and mineral industry have shown, relative dating works and until some other theory that’s equally as useful comes along, evolution is the status quo.

Absolute truth is the domain of philosophy and religion, science just has to have an application to be valid. We still use theories we know to be “untrue” just because they are good enough approximations of reality.
