Talk:Huaca

What's this nonsense about the Moche?
Aside from the section about huacas in politics being completely unsourced, inflammatory, and chock-full of old canards, um...it says this: In fact the structure had nothing to do with Sol, or Sun worship. It was a Moche site: they believed not in gods as such, but in the concept of duality. Really? Go read the article on the Moche: we don't even know what language they spoke, or what they called themselves. So how, in the name of the less-pleasant afterlifes of every religion, are we supposed to know what Moche theology was? It's hard to tell what Jewish theology is like--most observant Jews would be displeased, to say the least, if you denied they were monotheists, but Maimonides can certainly be interpreted as pantheist and Kabbalah as emanationist pantheist. And that's the theology of a people who are still around, and can tell you what the hell they mean!

My gut reaction is to delete the section, as largely valueless, false, and just plain nasty; if someone can't give me a rational explanation for its assertions in a week, I will. Nagakura shin8 (talk) 22:53, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
