What makes you think you are a primate? Is it the prejudice that the Nords have constantly called the Sami all those years?! From my study they have been prejudice against the Sami for years in history! Don't listen to their insults!

I guess you got it a bit wrong. :) (Smile) I don't think I'm a primate because I'm Sámi. I'm a primate because I'm human, and humans are biologically primates.

There are not really insults toward us Sámi anymore. Actually, we're kind of interesting for most of the people lately. Our culture and heritage is well recognized and studied by european scholars. Having a native nation among their populations make the scandinavian countries kinda proud. Something like 'we have our own Indians and treat them well'. Especially the tourism is rising from year to year. No independence yet though.

Oh, are you a Darwinist? I like to see that pride among the Sami. There area a few Sami that dwell in the US by my research.

Well, I don't like the term Darwinist/Darwinism. I'm an Evolutionary Biologist and a Methodological Naturalist.
As far as I know (according to Wikipedia) there are living at least 30,000 Sámi or Sámi descendants in North America. Most of them in states like Minnesota, Wisconsin, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan. That's really not much.

I meant no offense. By the way, I know the majority of the Sami are living in Scandanavia but I still have pride that a few live in a few of the States. It is part of my American pride as well with a large diversity. I'm also not surprised that the few American Sami chose the cold states like Minnesota and Wisconsin. I also received my information from Wikipedia.

None taken. Darwinist is not an offensive word at all. I simply don't like it because mostly Creationists use it for people who understand and approve the mechanisms of Biological Evolution. And because it's easy to link it to Social Darwinism, which in fact I understand but don't approve by no means at all.

I see. I don't like it any more when people use bad terms on creationists and I will not use such terms towards you. You know, it is quite exciting for me to meet one of the Sami people. They are cool.
