I personally don't belive in race, although once I was camped into slanging match about race against my will. The superiority of a human is base on his/her ability to produce for the benefit of him/her self, the families, the community and in the end - the humanity itself. A human who is taking advantage of other human by whatever mean is a parasite. If anyone there can prove the existance of biological superiority as other than the above definiton I like to see it. Anybody that claim he/she is superior compare with others base on blood I want to see it, fair enough? |

First, let us examine why there is a such thing as "racial superiority" because such a concept actually was once a derivitve from "racial purity." First off, there is no such thing as racial purity as there are no humans on Erth that are "purely" their own culture. Second the concept of racial superiority which is an ethnocentic attitude that the earyl Europeans had when classifying various cultural groups they came into contact with during their exploitation (AHEM! excuse me, I mean exploration). If there were any racial traits that were beneficial (not superior) then I'd say it depends based on on nationality. For those who have slanted eyes like most Asians (or related ethnic groups) the slanted eyes thanks to God through his evolution of man, helps protect the eyes from cold and and debris. For the Africans, the darker pigment helps protect the skin from the sun. For those of fair and light skin the ability to sustain cold weather which also repels sunlight and so on and so forth on each attribute of ethnicity. Case in point we are all human bings with various traits both beneficial to us and attributes to our cultures. Without our differences we would be boring entities
