Show me a person who says that a certain race, culture or religion is better than another and I will show you that that person is a member of that certain race, culture or religion he or she claims is superior.

I have children who are part Italian and part Black... I try to teach them that one race is no better than the other...Just different...

And the world would not be what it is today without the contributions of people from all different places and races....

As I said before, I can acknowledge the achievements and contributions of all but I would never go around hiding behind a book to do it...

However, you are correct in stating the ego and belonging issue which all humans feel deep inside...

It is the divisive rhetoric which I tire of...

I must be getting old...

I can't believe you made this statment. I'll refute it for you right now: I think Hitler had it all wrong - the Js are the master race in terms of IQ - and I say this as someone who looks like one his poster boys.

1/3 of the Ivy League, utterly dominant in the fields of science, medicine, law, art, finance, etc. The 3rd largest group of public companies listed on US exchanges, after the US and Canada, is Israel.

The other group are the Japanese. I recall an article from the Economist around 10 years ago that showed an math excerpt from a Tokyo Univ entrance exam. The thing looked like something Einstein would have been teaching to his grad students. The conclusion of the article was: sweet mother of jesus, how are we going to compete?
