Are We a Race-Obsessed Culture?

[MicArmstrong]

Sure they can. You just did. I disagreed. I said it's racism because it falsely ascribes biological differences to a sociological polylogist theory of "race".

It is the sociological, polylogist theory of race that I repudiate.

EDIT: I use "you" in the general sense above. I don't know whether you personally accept the sociological theory of race or not, but you are misusing the term.

I don't. My original point is that this approach to race is false. I am from the Rushton school of thought. I believe in biological determinism as opposed to environmental determinism.

Ah, very well. I don't believe in any sort of determinism, but this isn't a debate forum so we probably shouldn't go there.

As a UK citizen I think there are elements of racism in all countries .

You Americans did yourself proud when you elected President Obama .

Yep, and let the country go down the toilet for the sake of electing a cool black president. Way to show yourself off America...
