There is no such thing as race in terms of biology and genetics...

We juss dah uman rayiss muh nigga!
Nah, wher dhose white wimminz at mah nigga?!

And there are no breeds of dogs, either.

Race is definitely socially constructed to some degree and was even more so in the past, but you can biologically determine someone's ancestry. However, there is no such thing as a genetically inferior race.

That's fair, but only because what one considers "superior" is subjective. If you consider poor intelligence superior because it prevents technological development, and is therefore good for the environment, then you could certainly claim that Nigerians are superior to Germans.

He is more intelligent than you. 1% DNA difference, or even 0.1% DNA difference is a huge difference.

Social constructs are the "politically correct" values that dumb liberals like you (who think that are smarter than anyone else without being it), want to impose.

I think it's all very subjective, especially the way intelligence is measured. You should take a look at the !Kung people from Africa. They are a hunting and gathering society. Instead of technology and western medicine, they rely on herbs and trance dances. They practically have a use for each of the plants in their area. It actually works and heals the illnesses a lot of people in the village experience, as do the trance dances. A Canadian doctor visited the !Kung, and during her time there, she was highly shocked when she saw a medicine woman bring a baby back to consciousness after a trance dance. When she medically examined all the children, they were all healthy, with the exception of one girl who had a heart murmur. A lot of so called "inferior" people are actually better off than westerners in a lot of areas, the biggest being health. Westerners are more prone to things like heart disease, diabetes, etc, while other people aren't. Everyone is just very good at manipulating their environment given climate, economy, etc. That's why the !Kung went back to being a hunter and gathering society after they weren't colonized anymore, because hunter and gathering is more naturally beneficial to them. People just need to stop viewing other cultures through an ethnocentric lens.

Fuck you :)

>People still believing that race exists and makes any difference in humans

You people think there's such a difference, believe me, you've never seen what real human subspecies look like. Go look at the various sub-species of Homo Erectus some time, and you'll realize how uniform humans are.

That's all your argument. Insults. You convinced me now :rolleyes:

We also share 90% of our DNA with chimps. I guess small percentages do make a big difference after all!

If there is only one human race I'd like to see you explain poor East-Asians having far higher IQs than equally poor Africans.

Outstanding argument. I definitely know to take you seriously now!

Of course there is.... we define the world amongst two races. Greeks and Barbarians (I am not joking)

'The world is flat.'

'No it isn't.'

'Fuck you! I do not have to convince idiots such as you :)'

This is the height of Anti-Intellectualism.

Basically, you state something, and if someone disagrees, you refuse to debate them on it..whats even the point?

A fact is not established because you decree it so.

I could say anything, no matter how preposterous, and people would come up and say thats bullshit. However, if I refuse to listen to them, I'll just come off like a fucking idiot because I'm making a point I'm not even willing to defend from skeptics - thus proving I have little confidence in my own claims.
