A bird is a bird regardless of Species
A fish is a fish regardless of Species
A man is a man regardless of species.....Oh dear silly me we only have one!...HOMO SAPIENS!
ONE SPECIES = ONE RACE
I'm not looking for trouble only discusion!
Race is classification of humans into large and distinct populations or groups by factors such as heritable phenotypical characteristics or geographic ancestry, but also often influenced by and correlated with traits such as appearance, culture, ethnicity, and socio-economic status. In the early twentieth century the term was often used as a biological term, race denoting genetically divergent human populations that can be marked by common phenotypic traits.[1] When analyzing skeletal remains, this sense of "race" is still used at times by forensic anthropologists in biomedical research and in race-based medicine, both disciplines where the word can be used as proxy for geographic ancestry with some reliability.[2] However as biological studies through the twentieth century found no biological basis for the classification, it became clear that the primary factor in racial classification was social conventions developed in the colonial period.[citation needed] Today most scholars who study race see it as a social construct, that nonetheless has significant ramifications. For example, in many societies racial groupings correspond closely with patterns of social stratification, and for social scientists studying social inequality, race understood as a set of ideologies and practices is a significant variable.[3][4] Additionally, law enforcement utilizes race to create profiles of wanted suspects in an expeditious manner.

My point is made clear in this link!
Racism is the belief that there are inherent differences in people's traits and capacities which are entirely due to their race, however defined, and which consequently justify those people being treated differently, both socially and legally. Alternatively, racism is the practice of certain group/s of people being treated differently, which is then justified by recourse to racial sterotyping or pseudo-science.

I enjoy the differences in "race" and culture. I have to wonder about those who demand or declare that we all be "the same". Having been stuck in this conversation way too many times given my "race" and culture, mainly the ones who demand or pressure toward homogeneity are the real racists who wish that all people and cultures lose their individuality and identity.

I had to state this fact because I have seen a scary amount of threads recently that are based around this falsehood of race!

Here's what you may not know......
it is scientific fact that white or Caucasian bloodlines are the most dominant of all breeds. When you mix Caucasian with an African or Asian, it only takes 3 generations for the African/Asian physical appearances to disappear. You mix Caucasian with the brown (Middle Eastern, Oriental Indian) bloodlines and the brown physical appearances are gone in 1 or 2 generations.
Will we survive with the growing populations of other races? You better believe it ! Caucasians are the most innovative and creative people of all races......AND we have survived the longest!
So how about that?edit on 18-5-2011 by bluemirage5 because: (no reason given)
