I didn’t think this thread could get any more retarded, but…

Now Raj is taking up the subject of women, perhaps the one subject matter he knows least about, which is tough, given the competition.

A brief respite for decompression purposes-

I would also be curious to know of therajraj has ever taken a college-level science course. If so, which courses? What was your major?
I, too, believe that people should be assessed as individuals. Remember when I posted this quote?
"Colonel Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain: Tell me something, Buster… What do you think of Negroes?
Sergeant ‘Buster’ Kilrain: Well, if you mean the race, I don’t really know. This is not a thing to be ashamed of. The thing is, you cannot judge a race. Any man who judges by the group is a pea-wit. You take men one at a time."
It’s pretty rich to see you turn into the champion of “respect the individual, not the group” when 95% of this thread is about your thesis that “black people are less smart than white people.”

The amount of stupidity from raj in this thread is mind-boggling, but considering original post, not entirely surprising. The addition of a holocaust joke and commenting on somebody’s wife, that’s even low for a Trumpkin.
I’m honestly baffled how somebody can think the things raj does, attempt to argue them with such dishonesty, and actually think he is making solid points or winning the argument.
Thanks for the entertainment… but wow.

I do judge people as individuals, but I’m not going to discount observable patterns in groups.
If you work at a hospital and have a stats background, don’t you do that constantly?
I can tell my posts have really struck a nerve with you. All you do now is chime in with an insult and leave.
Thank goodness foe the break from insanity.
Also, that guy is a welding monster! 
Yeah, you are right about that–it and vaccines really raise my blood pressure through the roof lol. And see, the thing is I and AG both have issues with the industry and the FDA…we just can’t talk about them because the level of stupidity reaches super Saiyan levels. Amongst other folks these subjects would lead in productive directions.
And I completely understand that sick sinking feeling–its one of the most awful things you can feel, like a vise tightening around you.

Well, I wouldn’t call it ‘slang’ so much as ‘folk-race.’ And I would remind you–I’ve never denied the reality of race; rather, I’ve said it was a social construct.
Again, there’s nothing ‘unscientific’ about the concept of race. What’s unscientific is the selective mis-reading of the scientific literature to argue that race represents a fundamental taxonomic category of significant biological/genetic importance.

Interestingly enough, this study found that African immigrants from multiple countries did not exhibit Hypertension and Diabetes at the levels African Americans do. African Americans and Native Africans are two different races I guess.

This is interesting too. The places where Africans were dragged across water…they exhibit higher levels of hypertension…vs Native Africans. Must be because they’re two different races.

Fuckkkkk. This guy found Sub-Saharan Africans to suffer from Hypertension at a meager rate of 9% vs the average rate of 40% in African Americans. This is his dissertion. I’m convinced. They’re different races hands down Raj.

Even in light of the medical propensities of certain groups? Asking not countering.
I would say no. While race is a risk factor for certain medical conditions, the vast majority of medical conditions do not respect racial boundaries. Further, as illustrated nicely via the info presented by @MoreMuscle above, it is not at all clear whether these medical propensities flow from genetic vs social causal factors.
In short, IMO the medical propensities are not so compelling as to warrant designating to race the same taxonomic status enjoyed by concepts such as species, genus, etc. (FWIW, I will add that I have never encountered an article in the medical literature wherein the author argued to the contrary.)
How are we going to get seven billion people to do that?
Lorraine is currently a rather well known chef, given up for adoption and ended up in foster care, finally being adopted by an upper class white couple. The accent, vocabulary and mannerisms are that of an upper class white girl.
According to the T-nation’s resident racist, that’s simply not possible.
It’s not a question of race, it’s a question of money.

You’ve denied race as a biological construct
[quote=“therajraj, post:520, topic:228119”]
Here are some things that vary by race.
- susceptibility to diseases
- bone density and bone resistance to aging
- bacteria in mouth
- melanin production and the amount of ultraviolet light from the sun passes through the skin
- proper matches for surgeries (organ transplants)
- rates of giving birth to twins, gestation periods, age of reaching sexual maturity
- rates of motion sickness, allergy to alcohol
- blood types - there are certain blood types only certain races have
I could keep going. the point is this hardly not ‘significant enough’ to represent a fundamental taxonomic category of genetic importance. You can literally kill people by ignoring this.
