I don't know how you bastards can say that gates is a better archeologist than Jones. That shit is just ridiculous. I can't give Gates any credit just because those movies are so awful but for the sake of argument lets look at the two. Who has the most experience? Indiana Jones definitely has more experience. His experience makes Christ look like a lazy bastard. Who has made the more significant discoveries? If you say Gates then you're just stupid.
Seriously though. Gates may know more about American history but Jones was apart of history. His knowledge of world history is seemingly endless.
