If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life.

If this were true, then there would never have been any breakthroughs in any of the sciences, since anyone could have made them, given the right teacher. So the laser would have been invented, one way or another, without Einstein. And if that's the case, then who can we blame for Einstein's failure to unify gravity with the other forces?

Another similar question... Who invented the wheel? Different cultures developed it at VASTLY different times. In fact, I recall reading that until westerners brought it to North America, the wheel simply didn't exist.

As usual, leftists don't believe in individuality, or the simple fact that some people are better at things than others. That anyone could have, and would have, eventually invented everything we have today in the sciences.

It’s real simple, and none with the slightest understanding of history knows which came first: ford’s car (and those of other early automakers preceded roads, especially paved roads; the Wrights’ airplane preceded airports; steamships preceded canals; and the PC-—which made the Internet possible-—preceded the Internet. Indeed, each critical element of the Internet, including Bell’s modem, Andreasson’s Netscape, Hewlett Packard’s microprocessor; all made the Internet actually work commercially.
