i'm not dodging anything. This has already been addressed. In biology, these gradiated changes are referred to as "clines." Assuming you accept that the "missing link" has been found(which it has), and there exists no concrete distinction between modern sapiens and homo erectus, do you posit that these are in fact the same species? In order to remain consistent, you must. It is an absurd proposition.

This is like an article from the Onion. I can see it now...

Scientists from MIT were shocked today to discover that race is not biological in nature. When studying why black couples tend to have black children and white couples tend to have white children, Professor Howard Jenkins and his research team found it to simply be "one huge fucking coincidence". Next, Jenkins and his team plan to study whether there is any reason why children seem to only be born from heterosexual mating.

wizards have a hidden passive: Whenever one is logged in, you translocate to bind when you die. Normally, you would wake up in hell and have to fight your way out of satan's domain before getting back to your bind, in which case you would continue on to find your corpse

How lazy. You could have at least quoted something out of context.
I dont understand why people always attack one of the few people who actually make any sense in a thread by basicly saying that the thread is full of people who make no sense. Makes yourself look like an amatuer troll. Uthgaard's arguements are usually right and people get so angry half the time before reading it all because the first few words he says pretty much shuts you down.

White skin is a recessive allele.

Interracial marriage is white genocide.

i think the above statement is inaccurate.

"there are some physical traits that seem to be expressed more frequently together than apart."

would be more accurate and i think that's what you are trying to say
Right. A lot of current research in genetic mapping involves a deft comprehension of pleiotropy, epistasis, codominance, and the fact that genes can have more than one allele.

This is one very small example, taken from some of the research that I'm working on right now. This is the subset of genes that were most relevant, and how they interact with each other, line colors show how they affect each other, dot colors show what those genes impact.

OH Uthgaard? you heard of this?
Lol. No. There for there to be such a thing there would have to be a "race chromosome" and there isn't.

This is also false on both levels. The only thing you can really say about skin color is that a child can be no darker than its darkest parent. It's not a single on/off switch, it's a continuum of gene interactions.

Also recessive doesn't equate to expressed less in the population. Many traits are recessive and more common than dominant traits.

I didn't read this thread but thought I would chime in anyways.

Why has the black community failed so horribly? Yeah, give me all the socioeconomic stats you want but that isn't what I'm looking for. Why are they in that status? Blacks from the west indies have the same slave history but have been incredibly more succesful and less ******ish (rape murder assault drugs) than their african counterparts.

You say it isn't genetic, then what is it. Culturally taught behaviors of laziness, entitlement, and violence? Many people are convinced there is a gay gene despite one not having been found. Is there a potential unfound ****** gene that no one wants to acknowledge because of political correctness?
