03/08/2008: "How different are human races?"

Race deniers are likely to answer back that the comparison is not apt because there are greater genetic differences among dogs than among humans. However, I discovered today from John Goodrum’s useful and amply footnoted Race FAQ that this is untrue. In fact, human beings are substantially more genetically diverse than dogs are.

Geneticists measure genetic diversity within a species by determining the average heterozygosity of the species’ genome, or the likelihood of its having more than one variant of any given gene. Humans have an average heterozygosity of around 0.7, whereas dogs’ is about 0.4. It’s quite reasonable to argue that whites and blacks are behaviorally more different from each other than Chihuahuas and Collies.

[ We want there to always be collies, because we know there have always been mutts, but we don't want the whole world to be the exact same kind of mutt as multiculturalists/globalists do. ]
