Is a child of a white north European woman (caucasoid) and a south Asian (caucasoid) man considered white? Or how it will appear on the statistics

Just wondering.

For example, ruins noted by pilots perhaps while flying over large tracts of jungle, or GoogleEarth images whereby ruins/structures are noted with no correlating academic research identifying them.

Is there a list, discussion forum or similar providing infomation on sites such as these? I have for example heard mention of temples/structures sighted within Brazils Matto Grosso.

Answers welcome, let me know what you think :-)

We've seen this happen in history. People from Spain are really a mix of Romans, Celts, Phoenecians, Gypsies, Jews and Moors. Do you think in a couple hundred or so years, the people of the US will be a blend of races to the point that everybody looks similar?

Sometimes I see culture and religion as the same thing. But is there a culture, I mean like a native, historic culture (free from outside influence) that doesn't believe in an afterlife?

So many people say man kind is born with some kind of knowledge, but I wonder if there is anthropological evidence that says otherwise?

What is the origin of the Indian people in Asia? They do not look like the rest of Asians, no do they look like Caucasians.

There are theories of how Native Americans came to the New World, but new archeological evidence contests the Land Bridge theory. Also, I find it hard to believe that a whole 50% of the world was uninhabitated by man.

Has anyone done any DNA research to test where Native Americans came from and if they have different haplotypes that would disprove/prove the Land Bridge theory.

Another thing, the language is completely different and the style of living is different from other Asian peoples. I think that appearance is not a good indicator of origin because Vikings and Afghanis can be blonde and are not necessarily from the same group.

I'm guessing it has to do wth the complexities of human evolution. Homosapien species didn't die out yield and to newer species at the same time around the world.

Because of this there was mixing between the species and as a result different characteristics emerged.

Please advise. Am I on the right track.

Is it true that the Human species will never get smarter unless people kill the stupid? Researchers found an ancient Greek calculator 1000 years more advanced than it was supposed to be. That person who designed that calculator 1000 years ago is probably smarter than 99% of humans today.

Border Collies and Labradors are intelligent dogs, but there are some which aren't as intelligent, yet they are the same species. So is it the same with humans? Are whites more intelligent than blacks or vice versa? I'm assuming if that was true, no-one would say it anyway as it would be considered too "un-pc."

What do you think? What does the evidence show? The opinions of a paleo-anthropologist would be greatly appreciated.
