*******, Caucasoid, Mongoloid. Yes, we all stem from the sons of Noah. Who were Ham , Shep, and Japheth.It was a completely new beginning of humanity after the great flood wiped us out, It was also the beginning of memory, as we all know everything before that is a concoction of,, not lies, but made up stories of how we came to being who we are now..

Jim Z is exactly right except I don't think the differences are sufficient to even call them races. Thinking we descended from Negroes would be offensive if ignorance about evolution wasn't so widespread. Rather than calling black people primitive, I am sure they are mostly just really ignorant. Then you get the equally ignorant idea which bases race on skin color. I suspect that is where they three races comes from.

No this is false. There is only one race. Race is a social and cultural construct. Biologically and gentically all human are the same. What you are constucting as race are just how different people evolved to deal with their environmental factors.

First off, ****** are one of the most recent races to appear. Just becuase they are from Africa doesn't mean they are old. I think it would be denying the obvious to suggest that there are no races. Clearly there are races but there is so much cross breeding that they are often not distinct. Those races you gave are old. There are Negrito, Hottentot, Oriental (new and old), Caucasion, Polynesia, *****, and other distinct races. I do agree with some that race is largely subjective but they also obviously exists.

One species
One or a thousand races, it is up to the nitpickers and inbreeders.
This is as silly as claiming there are a definitive number of types of dogs.

Race is a social construct, so in a given society their are as many races as are given common recognition.

I think there is only one race - the Human race.
