Well, one of my issues is the kind of Holy Warrior idiot who thinks he's allowed to brazen out every manner of misstatement because his enemies are evil. The post of yours to which I first responded on this thread claimed that the article repudiated those lefty liars Gould and Lewontin.
Lewontin for sure allows that the differences between races are indeed genetic and some genes are turning up which reflect these differences. The article points up one such, a regulatory gene controlling prodynorphin production. What someone has fully allowed for in advance is not a repudiation.
You have responded with increasingly wild claims about Gould being a Lysenkoist and you having debated him in the 80s. This is at best off-topic and unverifiable.

Oh please...you put forth ad hominem attacks aginst me and offered nothing except evidence that you don't get the issues involved in this "debate." Lewontin and Gould were commies first and scientists waaaay second. They subverted the data to "prove" that races did not exist (ie., phenotypic differences in geographically remote populations based on genotypic variation), and part of that "data" was the lie that genetic variation was larger between individuals within a related population ("race") than it was between races. This study refutes that silly contention. Deal with it and stop defending commie pseudoscientists.
