Man does not invent things he discovers the things that God has placed before him. Whether you are talking about Television, Radio or the cure for cancer God placed the necessary elements before man to be discovered.
Is it that necessary to lay claim as to who was the first? If Mr. Pearse were the first to fly in a powered aircraft I ask what has New Zealand done to memorialize him? In Ohio there is a major USAF airbase named after the Wrights and there is a major university named after the Wrights.
It would seem that New Zealand could lay claim that they had the first birds not to fly (Kiwi) that is if you don’t take into consideration penguins and the dodo. This might set off a confrontation from those that lay claim to being the home of the latter two birds and if they did disagree with New Zealand’s claim the whole thing would seem to be stupid to the outside world.
Do you get my point?
