Nope, I didn’t forget about Darwin’s finches - hence my “I think if we had spent a few more tens of thousands of years apart, then we would have probably become sub-species separate, but we didn’t “
your analogy is scientifically flawed when applied to modern humans. Darwin’s Finches are a classic example of adaptive radiation where geographic isolation on different islands led to significant morphological and reproductive divergence. Humans have not experienced the level of long-term, reproductive isolation required to create such distinct lineages. Using finches to argue for human subspecies ignores the fact that human populations have maintained high levels of gene flow throughout our history.
In fact, the comparison to Darwin’s Finches actually illustrates why humans are not divided into subspecies. The finches became distinct because they were isolated on different islands for long periods, preventing interbreeding and allowing unique traits to become fixed in those populations.
Humans, by contrast, have never experienced that kind of prolonged, absolute reproductive isolation. Our history is defined by constant migration and gene flow, which is exactly why our genetic variation is so low compared to other primates and why our traits—like skin color, height, or disease resistance—are distributed in clines rather than in distinct, hard-divided groups.
In biology, a ‘subspecies’ is a specific taxonomic rank that requires a level of genetic divergence and isolation that simply does not exist in Homo sapiens.
Ha Ha Wow what a wonderful Unilateral moron post......
Science says we are all animals, all animals have sub species ... but according to you humans don’t.
Lets stand a 100 IQ specimen next to a specimen with 68 IQ ...
See the sub species yet?
