Re: I can\'t believe I\'m starting a race thread...

Except that he's acting like he's taking the ethnicity is valid position and we aren't, yet we've mostly agreed on its validity.

rduke - then state it openly rather than obscuring the issues behind race.
State, for the record, that you believe there are significant differences between ethnics groups in intelligence, and that these differences are probably due, in significant part, to a genetic component (either different genes or frequency of genes).
If you don't believe this, then what differences are you referring to? The ethnicity/IQ debate appears to be the only contentious issue where racial groupings are concerned.
The idea the ethnic groupings exist is obviously trivially true, and not worthy of starting a thread. We can all see that Africans are black, for example, or that Asians have unfolded eyelids. You don't need debate (or even a high school diploma) to see that ethnic groupings share certain traits. So what is it that you're agreeing with?
