Evolution is antithetical to racism

Another way to view how the ToE is against racism is that all humans that currently exist are equally adapted to their environment. ABE - in general as the sum of a group, not necessarily applicable to down to individual level such as in cases of genetic disease.Actually, the social science research I am familiar with verifies my personal experience regarding an opposite relationship. Namely that it is fundamentalism, which rejects the ToE, that has the high correlation with authoritarianism and racism. I think this is often shown by some posters here who often 'accidentally' let slip their own views.Of course going into more detail would be the opposite of this thread and therefore would require its own topic.Edited by anglagard, : No reason given.

Well, since jar is asleep and I'm stuck being awake until my pants dry, I may as well give it a shot.Racism means distinguishing and discriminating between and amongst people because this given person looks, acts, or has a different historic background than the perpetrator of racism, generally, but not limited to the 'ruling class.' As you should notice, the term racism is limited to the interaction among the human species.Specie-ism refers to the difference between humans and non-human animals and is usually associated with the agenda of PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) as meaning that all animals (as opposed to plants, fungi, and bacteria) have equal rights to humans.Please stop confusing racism with specie-ism, which is off topic in this thread. If you would like to introduce a PNT as to why specie-ism is either immoral or moral, please feel free to do so. However you may want to remember that the founders of PETA are hypocrites as they have personally benefited from animal research and that 2/3 of the animals they 'rescue' are euthanized, or in the vernacular, killed.

In your mind, not in fact. Technically evolutionism is not a real word recognized by spell checking so I assume you are referring to the Theory of Evolution. As has been pointed out ad nauseum, the ToE has nothing to say about racism. It has been misused by people to justify racism in the past. So has the Bible and patriotism. Whatever this means, IMO it has not been shown to anyone's satisfaction except your own. Declare victory despite evidence, call anyone who disagrees names despite forum guidelines, and then run off while calling all who disagree cowards. How many times as that happened before around here?
