Is the 4th. of July a White Holiday?

You didn't address the link in that comment, Chris. Why?

Because like your first link it doesn't support your claim. I was addressing it.

Your claim: "many scientists accept the validity of race"

Your source says almost the direct opposite:

You did not yet address my source.

It demonstrates that 1) there is nothing approaching a consensus and 2) the committee that produces the statements speak for themselves not "anthropologists".

I actually registered to read more. That's what I do. You know, stay informed. Try it sometime

But you pointed to that source to support your claim that "many scientists accept the validity of race". That's malarkey and you even say so this morning: "there is nothing approaching a consensus".

You're at your most inept when you try to help people

"The issue of race is a divisive and emotionally charged topic among physical anthropologists."

Issue 1 resolved. There is no consensus among anthropologists. Thanks Chris!

"Although these objections to the Statement on the biological Aspects of Race had nothing to do with race as such, the rejection of the statement at the 1993 AAPA business meeting also reflected substantive disagreements among biological anthropologists"

Reconfirms my contention on issue 1 and demonstrates that the committee in question is hardly representative of anyone. Thanks, Chris!

I didn't know how to do that. I really appreciate the screen shot!

Feeling silly!? You should be! Thanks for proving me right all counts. I appreciate it.

Right! There is nothing approaching a consensus. If there was a consensus that race didn't exist my claim would e false. Thanks again for the screen shot!
