Fight? Women can't fight because along with women being less intelligent than men, they're the weaker sex too.1over137 wrote:There are more women on this forum and can fight for themRickD wrote:One thing I think we all can agree on, is that God made men more intelligent than women*.![]()

"Black" isn't a race, it's a skin colour that is shared by a vastly diverse set of peoples. In the same way that Western Europeans and East Asians aren't some kind of homogeneous amalgam by virtue of their light skin, neither are Aboriginal Australians and Sub-Saharan Africans by virtue of their dark skin.Car wrote:Yes we deny it we ignore it,we don't make comment's about how black people dominate the running competitions,we don't make comment's about why Asians do not have so much competition in Olympics.
But if there are clear physical differences between races in sports,is there also a an intelligence difference?Yes a lot of iq tests prove it ,it looks to me that race exists and we evolved different characteristics for our survival,but why God make so many physical differences between races? I mean how can you make someone less intelligent than the other?
For the same reason that Europeans conquered the Americas and not the other way round: because of a galaxy of environmental, social and political factors - not to mention theerator time being right - all of which serve to make any potential genetic factor pale into utter insignificance. Or because blacks are stupid - whichever best suits your worldview, right?Car wrote:Ok then explain this to me why Black Africans didn't have written language or a calendar or did not build a mechanical device before they got contact with outsiders?
Also why Hispanic people do better than Africans in iq tests I mean they are also getting racism right?
What are you talking about? http://www.all-athletics.com/files/news ... eijing.jpg all runners sprinters and distance runners winners are black.PerciFlage wrote:
"Blacks" don't dominate running contests; athletes from a group of Caribbean nations tend to excel in sprinting competitions, and likewise athletes from a handful of African nations in long distance competitions; this is as at least as much down to culture and training focus as it is to any genetic component. Saying that people with black skin are excellent runners because of these two myopic observations is as absurd as using the examples of Newcastle and Glasgow to say that white people are incredible ship builders.

Your link proves what Neo and Perci said, all great apes share a common ancestor with humans.Car wrote:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_apeneo-x wrote:Apes and humans branched from a creature. Humans did not branch out of apes. Perci has a valid point.
Not at all. What I am suggesting to you is that race is more complicated - vastly more complicated - than skin colour. What I am suggesting to you is that your picture of a group of sprinters is no more proof of the thesis that black people are incredible runners than this picture is proof that white people are incredible shipwrights:Car wrote: Different races of people have different eyes different noses different skulls they also have difference in organs ,brain is an organ, what are you suggesting me is that although races changes things in their bodies the brain stayed the same and it does not sound to me very scientifically right.
Rick please don't let me lose respect for you, I seriously hope your joking because this is nothing but a huge straw man.RickD wrote:I can't see how belief in Darwinian evolution doesn't lead to racism.

Racism isn't a belief that different races share different traits. It's treating people as somehow second-class because of those traits, or pre-judging individuals based on the general traits of their race rather than their individual traits. Indiscriminate discrimination.RickD wrote:I can't see how belief in Darwinian evolution doesn't lead to racism.

This kind of argumentation that is used by the crazy Y.E.Cers against O.E.Cers, obviously there are exceptions on this board, not everybody is like that, please don't become one of them.

Leaving aside your subjective ideas about what constitutes evolutionary progress (I'm not quite sure what it would mean for one race or species to be "less evolved" than another in any kind of objective sense), your assertion that a belief in evolution necessarily entails racism suggests that you think it is acceptable to use someone's intelligence as a basis for the way that you treat them. Even if someone had a valid belief that members of a certain race were, on average, less intelligent than members of another, why on earth would that necessarily mean viewing every single member of that race as inferior?
