Humanity: always up to something.

Yep - That should be anthropology's official tag line. :)

My own view is that some of the truly myopic and ethnocentric comments made at MNBC in response to these photos show why anthropology is needed, now as much as ever.

There is nothing more bizarre about this snake ritual than dunking babies' heads in water at baptism, or cutting the little wee wees off baby boys at circumcision (and making a party out of it).

Jacob, I couldn't agree with you more!
