The reason why I put quotation marks around race is because I dont really believe that race is a valid reason for anything. This goes on racial nationalism, affirmative action, or anything related. If anything race is just a test in my opinion. I really do believe racial is just a discriminating factor left over by evolution to distinguish lower species. Homo sapiens sapiens may have seen other homo species as threats because they looked different from any other homosapiens they have ever seen. After homosapiens developed distinct characteristics from other homosapiens, and as time moved on, they distinguished a fear of homo species that were the same as them, although they were the same species. This is because when the exterior characteristics of homosapiens changed, one group was used to seeing one that looked like him, so they discriminated against people that looked even a little different. ( An example I have seen on these forums is nordic vs. meditarranean). I think we should judge people by their individual personality characteristics, and not by their phenotype. You seem to be suffering from the delusion that race is only appearance and nothing more:rolleyes: (sigh).
