Race doesn't exist!

[Andre Matheus]

No, but I have different sources like :

"The most recent survey, done in 1985 (Lieberman et al. 1992), asked 1.200 scientists if they agreed with this statement : “There are biological races in the Homo sapiens specie” The results were :

• biólogists 84%
• Evolutive Psychologists 64%
• Physical Antropologists 59%
• Cultural Antropologists 47% "

Fine you proved the my point that race concept is not an unanimityamong the scientific comunity. Though I've read in 60% of population geneticists denying openly the concept of race.

Well I admit "race does exist", however only as a social construct (i.e. in our minds). I suggest you pick up a copy of Principles of Human Evolution by Lewin and Foley which is written for students.

You can also read about The Geographic Project. It is the largest attempt by population geneticists to collect and identify mitochondrial DNA but they do not identify or suggests anything about race.

Of course not since mithocondrial DNA does not define races.

Again...

Why would you expect any idea to be unanimously accepted? No branch of science is completely understood.

[Loddfafner]

Sadie?

Speculation.

And the Out of Africa theory is not an unanimity. That happens in all fields of Science.

Somebody close this thread please. I'm starting to wonder whether this Andre Matheus is actually brazilian. Only the name Zé da Silva is more brazilish than André Matheus. And this fucker can't bring any proof for his claims, he doesn't know how to troll properly. And somebody invite Tingl Tangl to this thread.

Race doesn't exist, but ethnicity and nationality does, because they are what ideologically determine our way of life.

There is no such thing as a human race. The fact that you're reading this post mean you're energetically aligned with me and this message. Your thoughts create your reality. but you already knew that. Yet, you still live a life that you dread. [Oh excuse me- AAAH] That is because when you visualise your dream life, you unconsciously believe that it is unrealistic. Here is a hack: I have created a dream life meditation that uses questions and binaural beats. When presented with the question, your mind must accept it. And your subconscious mind will absorb it. When listening to binaural beats it puts your mind into theta frequency allowing you access to your subconscious mind. Link in the bio.

Race does exist and its a very important issue - because everybody belongs to at least one race.
But race is much more than the colour of the skin or the shape of the skull.
The Aborigines for example were isolated for 30 000 years or so and so they evolved different than others.

One associates certain external appearances with character traits too - thats not by accident.

And by the way - can you tell me one black philosopher from Africa or an aborigine writer...
Everybody sees that there are races - but people let themselves be fooled by the propaganda.
