    Are there seperate genetically classifiable races????
    I would add my input on how race is a societal construct used by the elites to instigate conflict while garnering the natural resources scot-free , but this thread has been ethered into oblivion before I could get a shot in.

    Not really.......

    This information has yet to be "ethered"........

    "Scientists, for instance, have recently identified small changes in DNA that account for the pale skin of Europeans, the tendency of Asians to sweat less and West Africans’ resistance to certain diseases."

    ^^^ biological construct.........

    The funny thing is Bambu is a creationist on a agenda again.

    People who have lived in the same geographic region for many generations may have some alleles in common, but no allele will be found in all members of one population and in no members of any other.

    Oh, is that so?

    Trying to disprove evolution, again?

    Sorry it won't work

    The authority that DNA has earned through its use in freeing falsely convicted inmates, preventing disease and reconstructing family ties leads people to wrongly elevate genetics over other explanations for differences between groups.

    So adaptations the ability to sweat less, have paler skin, or have resistances to is a testament to there being a different race? Then let's just separate everything that has minute differences into groups. You'd have hundreds of different races based on your(their) trivial, frivolous classifications on race.

    It's an exercise in stupidity and manipulation, to create different races out of minute mundane details. So to your logic your the ability to sweat less means your a whole new race well then what about West Africans who sweat less do they get grouped in the "asian" race? < Don't answer that it's a rhetorical question, SMH at you arguing with an actual biologist(kai) too btw. I hate google scholars

    See @bambu. Yo silly ? can only fly in that pit of hell called Race and Religion.



    Where it will eventually end up.

    @affiliatemoney101.....

    LOL at your lame ass "scholarship".......

    I have a few degrees as well, however I did not come here to speak on my accomplishments......

    It is funny how evolutionists claim "common descent" but claim egalitarian views towards the human race......

    You liken yourself to a biologist........

    Digest this.......

    How big is 2%?

    "2% of a trillion music Cd's( each CD holds 700 megs of data).If "one" music cd can hold 700 megs, 2% of that would be 14 megs(the 2% of one cd). So 14 megs times 1 trillion = 14 trillion megs! This is how much information 1 DNA molecule holds at the 2% level. And since there are 75 trillion cells, average, in the human body to get the total DNA information, it would be 14 trillion(information on one DNA molecule) times 75 trillion molecules(average DNA molecules in a human body). So 14 trillion times 75 trillion = 1050 trillion megs of DNA information through out your whole body. 2% of that is 21 trillion megs. Get the picture?"

    The 2% genetic (biological) variations that science speaks of in humans is so big that science has very well hidden it. It is most definitely large enough to differentiate the "races."

    It's only natural, actual facts are thrown at you, the impact will blow trees back and ? statues.....

    You say you have a few "degrees" but then you give a copy/pasted answer without citing your source. At least do that if you're not knowledgeable enough to use your own words.

    Don't worry.. I'll do it for you.
