You know What pisses me off about race and religion

[Faybull]

Wubbish!
gin soaked......... soon
Limey...................... and proud!
1-ball........................ not yet.......... I've still got two tonite!!
security guards.......... very good at maths...... they know to the penny what their wages will be...

Now consider the odds properly.
Female = circa 450 potential births
Male = billions of sperms.
Multiply together = 450 x billion x circa billion = don't get too excited for a win.

was that a rant about the pinkerton men? or about men sperm-n-women?

"Circa"?

Yeah..... friggin' circa!
Good ol' wikithingy:
Circa (from Latin, meaning "around, about"), usually abbreviated c., ca or ca. (also circ. or cca.), means "approximately"

..... and you thought it could only be used with dates. (that's not sticky things you eat, or trysts in the woods with girls..... that's time zones).

so...... Circa 450 female cycles. (that's not bicycles, but menstrual periods)

,,,,,, bit of both, but for God's sake don't mix 'em up.
....... Would you want your daddy or mummy to a Pinkerton man?

It's like your some kind of feral human....abandoned at birth....raised by wolves....(or badgers).....learned English by reading a dictionary, without ever hearing common usage.

Dude, you like what you like so not here to judge. Seen enough judges in my life. I'm not here as anyone's judge or exucurtioner.

I think that is part of the problem. People claiming a race at all. We are all mixed anyway. Love people, not everything they do.

Yes, that's more or less what I was getting at.

Terribly mixed. The chimps and apes have nearly the same DNA as ours.

I've never seen anything that much different from any of my African friends than I have with European friends. The biggest difference between culture of countries or religions, much like there is between European countries. Having same interests, like being a musician or collector, makes you closer than race will. Unless you want to create artificial barriers...

Speaking of "race", I love these kinds of articles: These twins can teach us a lot about racial identity

Interesting read. Thanks for sharing.

I had my DNA sequenced once.
The doctor called the local zoo to see if any bonobos escaped recently.

This insanely detailed map proves race is a social construct - Vox

Funny list that was a related link to the twins article. This kind of thinking was actually specific, now it's more generalized into just skin color.

This happens, too:

Some times it does, and we should not be surprised.

The pictures:

It's amazing to hear that these two are twins. It truly shows how wrong we are about race.

That's also very amazing.

I don't know of any large religions that favor one race over another. Usually when religious people do its a fad that lasts for a few centuries or so and then its over. Its only the evil left-wing media that tries to represent otherwise!

Since they're not identical twins, they're no more remarkable than siblings years apart in age.

From what I know. People are judge mental of others just by what religion you are and judge you worse if you say none.

The point is that they come from the same parents and shows what a grab bag phenotypes are and what a joke our ideas about racial identity are. As a mixed person, myself, I can relate to it because I've gone through the whole questioning of my racial identity, too.

I remember a story years ago about a neo-Nazi couple that had a black baby and got kicked out of the movement for it. Apparently one of had a distant black ancestor.
