    Sure there is: *what Blumenbach actually said*; rather than the lies of political forum poster "Jonah".

    How can you say that Arabs are Caucasians, when Arab is a cultural and not a racial identity?

    If most modern day English people are descendants of Iraqis and Syrians, why dont people in Iraq and Syria look white like English people do?

    Gender is a "social concept" based on biological sex, does that mean that the concept of gender is also invalid?

    Map showing the proportions of Scandinavian and British/Irish ancestry for mtDNA (Mt) and Y-chromosomes (Y) for each of the admixed populations from the North Atlantic region included in this study. The Scottish island groups of Shetland, Orkney, the Western Isles and Skye, and the region that we define as the 'North and West coast of Scotland', are encircled for clarity.

    The genetic evidence does not allow us to determine whether the observed geographic gradient of Scandinavian ancestry is largely due to either variable pre-Scandinavian population sizes, variable numbers of Scandinavian settlers, variable levels of post-Scandinavian Scottish resettlement or some combination of all of these factors. However, the observed symmetry between Scandinavian mtDNA and Y-chromosome ancestry in Shetland, Orkney and the N&W coastline of Scotland suggests that roughly equal numbers of Scandinavian male and female subjects were involved in the colonization of these locations. In other words, the genetic evidence indicates a family-based Scandinavian settlement of Shetland, Orkney and the N&W coastline of Scotland. This contrasts with results obtained for the Western Isles/Isle of Skye and Iceland where estimated male and female Scandinavian components differ. The Western Isles/Isle of Skye have the lowest estimated proportion of Scandinavian ancestry (17%) while Iceland has the highest (55%), but both exhibit a two-fold excess of Scandinavian patrilineal ancestry relative to Scandinavian matrilineal ancestry. The data seem to suggest that the settlement pattern of both the Western Isles/Isle of Skye and Iceland included, in addition to Scandinavian family groups, a substantial number of males who took wives from indigenous British populations.

    Islands off the coast of Britain are relatively distant from the Scandinavian homeland and must have been viewed as frontier areas within the North Atlantic region during the Viking period. Iceland, an uninhabited island at the margin of the then known world, was even more remote. Linguistic, archaeological and historical evidence indicates that Scandinavian dominance was never complete or secure in places such as the British Isles (Davies, 1999). Viewed in this light, the excess of Scandinavian patrilineal ancestry observed in the Western Isles and Iceland and the symmetric contribution of Scandinavian male and female subjects in Shetland, Orkney and the N&W coastline of Scotland are consistent with a common feature of human colonizing behavior: This is that migration to insecure frontier areas tends to involve a disproportionate number of lone male colonizers, whereas family groups are more likely to be abundant in secure areas that are closer to the strongholds of colonial power.

    He's also attacking a strawman non-biological race definition.

    Really cannot be bothered to argue with you as the majority of what you post is ignorance.

    "Ignorance" = logically refuting liberal nonsense. You forgot "bigotry" too.

    How am I being ignorant? All Im saying is that just because something is a social concept doesnt make it invalid.

    Everywhere .. look, you have nothing of any interest to say, nothing of any relevance to say .. everything you put forward is simply to enforce your own obsession. Thankfully the majority of people realise this and treat you with the disdain so richly deserved.

    Get over the fact that most people now look upon avid racists like you with nothing but pity and contempt.

    Good day :)

    Just empty lies. Are "all of my posts ignorant bigotry"? We wouldn't want to hold such an indefensible position to have to constantly resort to empty name calling would we?

    1. You quote a comment supposedly of mine that I never said, that is dishonest are you a liar?
    2. I have not called you a bigot, I called you a racist.
    3. I have not called you ignorant, the post was not addressed to you. Why do you need to invent things you think I have said about you?
    4. I really couldn't care less about your supposed 'truth' the majority of people see your 'truth' for what it really is and that is absolutely no interest in the science, it's just another way for people like you to degrade and demean other human beings who don't look like you.

    Have a nice day :)

    It's wasn't a quote, the marks indicated that the terms were invalid.

    Thanks for clarifying exactly which mindless name you were calling me in the absence of a logical counter argument.

    You called somebody else "ignorant" without countering what they were saying, which is rather ironic. That's what I was referencing. What you said about me was, and I quote:

    So again thanks for pointing out exactly which terms of gratuitous abuse were directed at me, it makes such a difference, self appointed voice of "most people".

    Do you have software to generate this stuff automatically? It doesn't take much thought and it sounds all the same.

    Thanks, I have done. Good evening.

    Then I suggest you re-study English and find out what quotation marks actually mean, the clue is in the name.

    nothing mindless about it, it is plain to see where your motivation lies and that motivation is nothing more than an attempt to demean those who are different from you.

    Do you ever read what you write - "Are "all of my posts ignorant bigotry"? .. your words, and as I correctly stated I did not call you ignorant. (unlike you I know how to use quotation marks)

    Not abuse only the truth, and I am not "self appointed", take a look at peoples attitudes towards your racist ideology, and you will find that you are fast becoming extinct.

    I'd rather have software than a stormfront membership, accept it you are a racist no matter how many 'pretty' colours you attempt to paint over it.

    Glad to hear it.

    Because I classified people from the Middle East based on genetic similarity?

    See above.

    No, I think more and more people are becoming racially aware and sick of the endless anti-White pseudoscience actually.

    I like how you segue from a lame rebuttal into meaningless name-calling, on some tangential irrelevant mockery, yet do it with far less wit. Well done!

    It was poor "science" at the time, but the term Caucasian was considered more polite than just saying "white".. as in Whites only signs during the Jim Crow days.

    Caucasoid or the absurd "Caucasian" never meant White among educated people. Only among retards such as the US government and most PF posters.

    Again you need to re-read your own comments - "It's wasn't a quote, the marks indicated that the terms were invalid." - please show in your definition where it says anything about quotation marks being used to indicate that a term is invalid, irony does not equate to being invalid, merely to being the opposite.

    not just that, but your numerous posts and threads trying to find anything you can to fuel your obsession with demeaning people who look different to you.

    I did and it does not say what you think or want it to say.

    Perhaps in your circle that is correct, more and more people are becoming tired of racists trying to demean others.

    Thank you, I pride myself on calling racists out on their pathetic obsession.
