Agree, these categorization is BS until we have a better DNA technology to properly trace back. The only think we know is that all of us are 99.99% the same.
Those 3 categorization is heavily disputed since its inception, its used to play in favour of racism and other acts.

When did lying to children, whether about the Easter Fairy, the Tooth Bunny, or various and sundry gods become the norm? What kind of culture allows BS to substitute for obvious fact, if not debatable fact?
Stories are important to any culture. These paradigms, stereotypes, and tropes serve a significant purpose to teach, define and bind a society. Psychologically, we need these as individuals and as social animals. It is, however, natural and necessary for those values represented to change, and so the stories and characters change. However, I think equating stories/belief in the Easter Bunny with psychopathy is an ironically unhinged perspective as well.edit on 13-12-2013 by redhorse because: (no reason given)edit on 13-12-2013 by redhorse because: clarity and grammar
And when do the lies stop? At what age? Obviously not in most adults, look at that Fox News segment, or any church on Sunday. It's one thing to tell ghost stories around a campfire. It's quite another to present them as news to millions of viewers, and with a straight face no less.
Yes, this is psychopathy. In a sane culture, this would get you put into a mental health institution for dramatic treatment, and you would be unemployable until you came to your senses.
We've been told lies as a matter of course about everything, our entire lives. How is an intellectually challenged person supposed to know what's real, and what's imaginary? If telling our children the truth isn't important, I don't know what is, but you certainly won't solve society's problems if your approach to them is idiotic fairy tales and sinister threats if the fairy tales aren't believed.

There are some folks who don't want to deny ignorance
and who have been bottle fed on white supremacy as the ignorant fox babe, who are simply…lying!
In order to maintain their fantasy of EVEYTHING GOOD MUST BE WHITE.

How can we have confidence in the white people? When Jesus Christ came upon the earth, you killed him, the son of your own God, you nailed him up! You thought he was dead, but you were mistaken. And only after you thought you killed him did you worship him, and start killing those who would not worship him. What kind of a people is this for us to trust?

If Jesus is white, then his father, God, must also be white.
See how off based this is?
