You may as well say all breeds of dogs are the same. I mean they’re all dogs aren’t they. Poodles and pit bulls are the same thing.

I have eyes -—— and when I meet someone, I can tell what color they are because I am looking at them. I can tell if they are black, white, brown or yellow or whatever.

But when we start talking together, I see the real person and that is what counts. It is what is inside that person I relate to —— not the outside.

Actually, world history is all about race. Race is the defining differentiation between nations. Race and the religious racial traits are what form politics and nations and the wars to maintain those differences

The modern attempt at racial integration is a foolish attempt to rid the world of war. The attempt at racial integration in The United States is the nutshell example to extrapolate around the world.

Although there are many many success stories that speak well for the attempt, the Africanization and decline and even destruction of America’s great cities belie the fact. The cities are in many ways the retribalization of the African based people into neo african society. The very population that was supposed to benefit has set its self aside back into segregated and then failed cities.

Race is infact not a mental construct but the very basic genetic differentation among humans. To say otherwise is just ignorance

Race isn’t just “skin color”. That’s a lie liberals have been pushing for the last hundred years.

Yes but when a bitch is in heat, the breeds of either the males or that female involved makes no difference. The deed will be done.

A self-evident statement. And, what we call race is not race. Cut any person and he will bleed one of the four blood types. What really divides us is culture.

Jesus didn’t say anything about race. He did call the Caananite woman a dog however and the Phraisies children of Satan. He also said he only came for “the House of Israel” implying that he wasn’t here for everybody. So if anything is looks like Jesus was a racist.

it’s possible Jesus did not grasp the complexity of racial complexity beyond his very limited knowledge

Really? So skin color, facial features, diseases, ethnic culture etc are all just a figment?

One of the biggest lies of our time.

Did Jesus call the Caananite woman a dog yes or no?

Did Jesus call the Pharisies children of the devil yes or no?

Correct and congratulations on being the first to point it out. DNA is like a fingerprint; every person's is different. But a different fingerprint does not make us genetically different, which is what Murray is stating.

The very population that was supposed to benefit has set its self aside back into segregated and then failed cities.

That's a construct of culture, not of race. As Dr. Thomas Sowell pointed out, there were segregated black schools in various cities which academically outperformed their white counterparts before Brown v. Topeka Board of Education. The reason was not race, but a culture of parents who had high expectations and valued education.

Unfortunately, for most of Black Americans, the yahoo culture of single parenthood, government dependence, rap and hip-hop overwhelmed the culture of parents who had high expectations and valued education.

You accept the differences between the sexes but refuse to see the more subtle differences between the races, you need to be praying for wisdom.

he epithet “RACIST” doesn’t mean any thing any more.

There are distinct differences beteween the races that doctors need to take into account when treating patients.
However, it is wrong and unconstitutional for government to give out special favors to some individuals based on their race.
