Neithan02- you should be careful with language here administrators are tough on that. We aren't saying there are no non-whites in 40k, as I said from the novels I've read there have been plenty of characters who were non white, or frankly their race is not mentioned. However the majority seem to be. So we are discussing it. And I didn't know the WScars still recruit from Terra. You sure about that?

You make some fair points but I find myself in agreement with MasterofAgony in general. Especially since you seem to think that the Catholic Church destroyed/hid ancient roman/greek civilization when it was the opposite. Europe would be a barbaric waistband if it wasn't for the catholic church maintaining some sort of order and moral law among the warring feudal lords. The regression of the Europeans after the fall of Rome was not at the hands of the Church, it was at the hands of the barbaric incursions and internal civil degradation; the church was the last pillar against that. The Renaissance(and thus the revival of knowledge ext) was really only possible because of the Church. This mistake makes me think you are uninformed and thus makes me doubt all the things you have said, be they with merit or not.

Your point about s-fiction simplifying planets I agree with. I have noticed that too.

The Emperor is ancient Anatolian, Hittite probably. They were Indo-European. He's white. Modern Turks are mostly Arabic, but that was not the case really until the Islamic incursions on the Byzantine Empire. Again you show your lack of historical knowledge. And again I do not mean to be rude, but your statements are bold and I find myself needing to say....look into it beforehand.
