[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The three races are Causacoid, Mongloid, and Negroid. Along those lines, there are Jewish Causacoids, Jewish Mongloids, and Jewish Negroids.

There is no Jewish race. People who insist on segregating Jews as a separate race are showing their anti-Semitic stripes.[/quote]

Where do people who are indigenous to the Americas fit in? American Indians, etc.

Mongloid. You really didn’t know that? Remember the land bridge?[/quote]

Sounds like old-timey definitions of race.

Here are the US categories for this discussion.

Wrong. Your  page clearly says these are categories based on race AND enthnicity. If you go by race only, it's the three races named above. [/quote]

For this discussion, these are the relevant definitions. Race is just a social construct and our society currently uses these modern definitions.

If race is a social construct where does that leave dna evidence?[/quote]

What evidence?

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2018/04/race-genetics-science-africa/
“It's been used to define and separate people for millennia. But the concept of race is not grounded in genetics.”

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/race-is-a-social-construct-scientists-argue/
“"What the study of complete genomes from different parts of the world has shown is that even between Africa and Europe, for example, there is not a single absolute genetic difference, meaning no single variant where all Africans have one variant and all Europeans another one, even when recent migration is disregarded,"”

+1.

Time to move on.

Racists, please accept facts.[/quote]
