They always say that they are pure white, but according to anthorpologists no one on the face of the Earth is pure "White" or "Black" we are all composed of different ethnic groups and skin color and pigmentagtion doesn't really play a role in it because sub-Saharan Africans are some of the most diverse people in the planet and they happen to be some of the darkest. In conculsion were are all mixed to some degree. What do you think of this?

I posted this question because a lot of people on this site are always saying that they are pure white and stuff.

You're right scientists: anthropologists, geneticists etc. all say that (even the non jewish white ones-lol). White people have various eye colors (green, blue, grey, brown etc), hair colors (black, brown, red, blonde etc), skin tones(very pale to brown), facial features (thin lips, full lips, very thin nose, flatter, wider noses, low cheek bones, high cheek bones), body types, I mean all across the board, yet so many think that there is a "pure" white race. It defies common sense.
Yet they limit the so-called black race to one eye color-very dark, one set of facial features-very full lips, very flat, wide nose, one skin tone very, very dark skin, & one body type-"big & black".
& its not that combination shouldn't be looked at as beautiful. (But let's face after centuries of brainwashing passed down thru centuries its hard for even the most conscious black person to not judge beauty from a euro-centric standpoint.)
but how come when a black person doesn't meet all those physical attributes it becomes "Well OBVIOUSLY that person is mixed" especially if that person is seen as good-looking (especially if its a black women)
Lets face white people features vary just as much as black people so if we are all mixed when we aren't jet black when wide noses then they are all mixed when they aren't extremely pale with blonde hair & blue eyes, w/ long thin pointy noses.

I've heard that kidnapping other humans and slaughtering natives of the land can give a group of people a false sense of superiority.

I definitely agree with you with most of it, although I am sure some folks can trace themselves through geneology all the way back some hundreds of years. My question is why would one spend so much time with such a devisive endeavor?

White is a race if all of your ancestors are white than you are white. Why is it so difficult for people to accept that there are races? This has little to do with genetic diversity.

yes I agree, almost no one is entirely of one race. If someone wanted to see if they really were 100% of a certain race, they could trace their family line back.. but the question is why would you.

Now you know they have an answer to that...They can prove they are purebred, because everyone in their family is related!!!
Sorry. I had to. I'm not one of the sheet heads. I think they are a few degrees below stupid, personally.

frankly, i think one of the characteristics of people that PROVE that they are NOT supreme - is the fact that they are ignorant enough to THINK they are supreme....
