You seem to be itching to have an argument about race. Earlier you asked "Can you come up with any examples of science that wasn't even a theory when the UB was published but shown to be true later?" I provided the link but you didn't really want an answer. Now you are further diverting away from criticism about a 2,000 page book you haven't read to an argument about race.
Here, let me give you what you want:
* Is it true that all people have the same IQ? No!
* Is everyone equally intelligent like Albert Einstein, except we didn't go to the schools he went to, if we did we would all be equally smart? No!
* Is it true that all people are identical in intellect? All created equal? No, obviously not.
* Do I think all people are loved by God without condition YES! Does the UB teach that? Yes, without question!
* Generally speaking were some pure line races superior to others? Yes, welcome to evolution.
* If one race has a greater distribution of intelligence does that mean it can oppress or take advantage of another in todays world? Absolutely not!!!
* Are there any pure line races on earth today? No!
* Were Homo heidelbergensis equal to Neanderthals and Denisova hominin's? No, but I'm sorry if it hurts their feelings.
I'm not trying to have an argument about race Colt...I'm just trying to point out the faulty pseudo-science in the UB. I'm not sure where you're getting this irrelevant stuff regarding Neanderthals...they weren't mentioned at all in the passages I quoted.
The passage I quoted talks about the racial superiority of whites and inferiority of blacks. You said you know about the Kellogg family...are you familiar with their views on eugenics? That was a popular scientific movement at the time of the UB. Do you think it's a coincidence that the UB talks about the racial superiority of whites?
Also...what race are you referring to when you said...
"Generally speaking were some pure line races superior to others? Yes, welcome to evolution.
* If one race has a greater distribution of intelligence...."
Feel free to clear that up for the record, I certainly don't want to get accused of putting words in your mouth. Do you think that some races have more intelligence than others? Or was all that stuff about individual intelligence just a straw man?
