Regli, You can make any claim you want, such as for example, that race is a myth. But the claim is not true. The following statement, for example, is not true if “taken apart” means false. “In "The Difference Between Us," many of our common myths about race - such as the "natural" advantages of black athletes, or the musical abilities of Asians - are taken apart.” The athletic superiority of Africans is a fact. Look at an NBA game IQ differences between the races is a fact. Look at the data. A difference on average in the size of brains of people from Africa, Europe and Asia is a fact. Look at the data. Different rates of maturity with respect to race is a fact. Etc. Etc. See this for example,a review by Phillip Rushton of S.J. Gould’s “The Mismeasure of Man,” where many facts about racial differences are looked at, and Gould is debunked. christianparty.net You can say that the vast data showing racial differences are racist if you wish. You can call me names if you wish, but nothing changes. The world keeps on being what it is. Your calling me names doesn’t change the world, but it does have an effect. You are adding your modest effort to stopping us from dealing with the world the way it is. This prevents small and useful changes from occurring that have to occur if we are to adjust to reality. Think in terms of the San Andreas fault. What is wanted is small adjustment to the underlying reality of shifting earth plates. What is not wanted is for the plates to get stuck and not move for a long time -- then pressure builds until finally there is movement, but the movement comes in the form of powerful and destructive earthquakes. You doing your small part in not dealing with the world the way it is a contribution to real trouble somewhere further down the line. We got a little hint of this real trouble in New Orleans with Katrina, where a vast number of black people were shown to be helpless. Good work, Regli --- that outcome is one you are contributing to. The refusal to deal with blacks the way they are is hurting the rest of us to be sure --- but don’t fool yourself. It is having a catastrophic effect on black people. Good work, Regli. Next time you see God tell Him to make the world to your moral specifications. But in the meantime, I recommend reality as a starting point.

regli, thanks for the link, but they are naughty and do what dishonest tendentious "scientific" people often do. They take a truth, being that human genes are stirred up and spread everywhere, so that "races" are all a big mix of all the genes, then stretch it and conclude false things. What they ignore is that there are greater proportions of genes in some places than others. So, for example, you will find more melanin producing genes in Africa than in Norway. Which is not to say you can't find deep melanin genes in Norway and albino people in Africa. You will find more Tay Sachs genes in Ashkenazi Jews than in Japanese. You will find more tall genes in Dutch people than right next door in Belgium. That's because they have a lot of canals in Holland and so when drunk people fall in them, the tall ones can stand up and not drown [that's my theory, though I haven't published a peer-reviewed paper on it]. This all seems so obvious, that I'm surprised people have trouble understanding it. I think there must be an "understanding" gene which some races are missing. Unfortunately, that race is spread everywhere, so we can't nuke them. But gradually they are being eliminated as they are in gaol during reproductive years, they kill themselves and others in car crashes, they smoke, drink and eat themselves into an early grave, they do lots of death-dealing things [mostly to themselves fortunately]. <In order not to waste bandwidth on an issue that should be obvious to most, I am deferring to this link about the subject > Did you see that high IQ is directly correlated with longevity, right up to 165? 165 people live longer than do 150 people. So you can see why poor countries, which have lower intelligence, on average, also have reduced life expectancies. Nature is relentless and merciless. No wonder we have evolved great big brains and the process is continuing. I have personally nearly been evolved out of here a few times. My genes are obviously not the best available. On the other hand, a miss is as good as a mile, so maybe I have got the magic ingredients. It's true to say that everything living right now has got the "right stuff". Mqurice

regli, I note that, being a racist, you didn't comment on this: jewishworldreview.com What did you think? I pointed out what was wrong with the ideas in your link. I hope you read that link I've given again. It appears not. Or you have hurried on, ignoring the content. <Men stumble over the truth from time to time, but most pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened. - Sir Winston Churchill> Go on, put in some bandwidth. Most of us know that racism is bad and bigotry too. Why not join the good guys. Don't declare victory for your racist ideas and leave. <In order not to waste bandwidth on an issue that should be obvious to most, > Mqurice
