Talk:Race

Since the Great Flood

In my opinion, this part should at least be introduced as "According to Creationists" or "For those who believe in...".Leopeo 16:53, 10 May 2007 (EDT)

Its a conservative fact, see here. Auld Nick 12:25, 12 May 2007 (EDT)

You mean conservatives wishit were a fact. Which is not the same thing as it being a fact--27102340 12:39, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

Neanderthal

They seem to have forgotten the Neanderthal. As it is currently listed as Homo sapiens neanderthalensis on this website it should be listed as one of the races.--TimS 11:25, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

Only if it says so in the Bible. Auld Nick 11:48, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

Was this lifted from a nineteenth century textbook?

Good Freaking God. Newsflash: Asians are not "yellow." Native Americans are not "Red." Stupidpedia strikes again!--27102340 12:31, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

If this article is going to mention what science once thought about races, then at least get it right. The original physical anthropologists that developed the biological race model had only three races: Caucasians, Mongloids, and Negroids.Prof0705 12:35, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

Whaaa...you mean the scientists, to whom we all genuflect before as barers and guardians of truth and knowledge, have been wrong? Wow. And those scientific facts were once used to promote and justify racism and genocide? My word. RobS 13:06, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

Oh my God!!Scientists actually make mistakes like every other person on this planet, and if they are proven wrong they actually change their theories?? Wait...Wait...Oh that's right...science is an open system as opposed to a closed system. Duh...Prof0705 13:11, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

At least we are out of the dark ages, where persecution and genocide was done in the name of Christianity and the Church. Thank heaven. Now we at least have atheists, rationalists, and science to blame for our progressive thinking which results in mass murder. RobS 13:14, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

Yah...good thing those white Christian upper-class gentlemen in the 19th century needing some way of justifying racist policies could turn to science to do their dirty work.Prof0705 13:16, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

Yeah, isn't science a Bitc*? I mean, instead of living in your cave, following the sheep around, now you have central heat, air, the internet, the internal combustion engine. Dang, science make these Christians so miserable.--27102340 13:24, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

Yep. It was science that gave mankind personkind Zyklon B, and the instructions how to use it. RobS 14:11, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

And it was non-scientific politicans that decided to use it. Same as the atom bomb, dynamite, and napalm. So would you also blame the company that makes the gun used to kill someone, or the person that pulled the trigger?Prof0705 14:13, 15 May 2007 (EDT)
