Good little Marxist.
In 1950, the United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) issued a statement
asserting that all humans belong to the same species and that “race” is
not a biological reality but a myth. This was a summary of the findings
of an international panel of anthropologists, geneticists, sociologists,
and psychologists.
A great deal of evidence had accumulated by that time to
support this conclusion, and the scientists involved were those who were
conducting research and were most knowledgeable about the topic of
human variation. Since that time similar statements have been published
by the American Anthropological Association and the American Association
of Physical Anthropologists, and an enormous amount of modern
scientific data has been gathered to justify this conclusion.

ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteWhy does this race-argument remind me of the anthropogenic global warming argument? It could be that both arguments set out to prove their hypotheses and then compile data to "prove" it. This is the exact opposite of the scientific method and can lead one to erroneous conclusions, as is the case here.
ReplyDeleteFor instance, "enormous amount of modern scientific data has been gathered to justify this conclusion." What kind of data? How much data did not justify the conclusion? Was this data a compilation of opinion or biology?
Speaking of biology, why is it that most of the people vulnerable to sickle cell disease are of African descent/black. Is it race or racism?
It could be that both arguments set out to prove their hypotheses and then compile data to "prove" it.
DeleteAbsolutely.
I think I will believe Wm. Pierce; makes more sense. Anthropologists even got it
ReplyDeletewrong on the dinosaurs.
