That's about it. Humans are far too ready to kidnap, conquer, and then intermarry across races to claim that racism is "instinctive." If it were instinctive, interracial mating would almost never happen, but instead, it has always happened.
To be fair: we're all the same "species"; like house cats. Different colors, hair, eyes and size but; kitties are still real close to each other. Same with us.

That's what I was saying. There is no instinct that inhibits one variety of housecat from mating with another variety of housecat. There is no instinct that inhibits dogs of one breed from running in a back with dogs of another breed.

So there is no reason to think that there is any innate instinct that creates racial division in humans.

That's why you refuse to answer my simple question.

Gotcha!
You just admitted to asking a dumb question, and you're PROUD of that?

That's pathetic in the real world.

Your reading comprehension leaves much to be desired.

But, your desperate attempt to deflect is truly pathetic.

What. This is an anonymous website so no one is going to attack you so say what you wanna say. I did.

Sure, you'll look stupid after you say it, but again, this is an anonymous website.

In looking through pet ads for shelters, one of the funniest combos was something like a Chihuahua and an Eskimo dog (or some other huge one) Just imagining how that came to be....if they can manage to get along, so can we all

[quote=michiganmoon;48561823]In America, where races can own culture - so long as they are a minority - it is important to point out that white people can't wear certain things or my snowflake will melt.

Sorry you can not own a culture just like you can't own G-d. You need to think about your statement it makes about as much sense as an udder on a bull.
