"Race" is indeed a specific scientific term. Look it up (Race | Define Race at Dictionary.com), and you'll find that it is no longer used to refer to Caucasians, Asians, etc., though it used to be back in ye olden days. Race does refer to different "sub-species" in a species, however humanity is scientifically classified as one, singular race. Also, if you read my post again...

Read the book I recommended ("The Race Myth: Why We Pretend Race Exists in America" by Joseph Graves), look into all of the variety of studies that have been done on the subject, actually inform yourself of the situation instead of just reckoning.

I know it's hard for you to believe, but humanity is one race. We're all in this together. And while the sub-races of humanity do have differences, they're insignificant at most, and intelligence has never been linked to sub-racial backgrounds. Now, instead of just responding with another "I'm right and you're wrong" post, just look up the subject and inform yourself.
... you'll find that everything you just wrote was a paraphrase of what I originally wrote. We're in agreement here, friend.

No. That's why I contrasted Angola and Norway. I'm not sure, but I think that YOU might be ignoring it.

Just using the term race makes you feel dirty.

That's incredibly hysterical.

You are talking about the environmental facors that lead to evolutionary selection and thereby to a different genetic make up in a population as a whole, I am talking about environmental factors in the development of individuals, influencing intelligence on a non-genetic level.

I'm talking about races as a collective and you're talking about individuals.

So I'll be happy to agree with you that environmental factors impact intelligence assuming that I'm aware of what you're fishing for now.

Because your supporting the popularity of an artist who preaches hate. I wouldn't be surprised if he uses the t shirt funds to help him pay for the publishing of his next book.

That being said I don't give a f)ck what you wear. You have the right to walk around with a swastika engraved on your forehead or wear a burka, that's what freedom is all about.

Its your god given right to wear any t shirt you want, all I'm saying is just be aware of the implications of how you may be perceived & who you are supporting given his political views.

So you are saying that since different races have different hair colour, skin colour etc. this means that there might also very well be a difference in intelligence. But the aforementioned traits are, unlike intelligence, not influenced by environmental factors. So why do you even make that analogy?
