Origin of Macedonians

[Hax]

I have a strong belief my ancestors (the Mongolians) murdered about a billion people. I have a strong belief my ancestors enslaved a couple of thousand people (the Dutch).

So what? Finding pride in your ancestry or nationality is pretty much useless. Was it your blood that was spilt? No, so don't feel proud of things that you haven't done.

Now, I hope we can continue discussing the ancestry of the Macedonians without this debate degrading to nationalistic nonsense.

Wow, I feel attacked here. I think you misunderstood what I said. i wasn't talkin' about me nor anybody else. I was giving an example, showing pretty much what you said : that because of nationalistic beheaviour of people, finding the exact origins of great figures is a tricky matter. now read twice before shouting out loud.
