| I know this was a long time ago but still.... 8 years ago I remember I was at a big social get together in town. Later on we walked back from town to a friends house and I think I said something to this girl roughly along the lines of "that pizza your eating looks good" and she said "... |

| How do you explain testing that can reveal a person's genetic ethnicity? If there is no such thing as race/ethnicity then why do we see it manifest in DNA tests? It isn't "racist" to suggest that there are different groups of people. It is absurd to say that there is no such thing as race... |

| Like nearly everything -- arguments are viewed from a social point of view by normal people. Or more exactly, by their unconscious mind. That is... fights, just with words. Nobody likes a fight.
