I have two questions about your challenge. How many times am I allowed to give you people that you can't teach pointers to? And how rich are you?

You are responding to a strawman. I said nothing about the trend, much less dismissed it. I addressed the reasoning I've seen people use exclusively to push for it.

Physical difference has nothing to do with the discussion. That is a complete red herring you just pulled out from no where. The empirical fact is that humans are genetically quite different. The genetic distance between human races

What you quoted supports his rebuttal, not your claim. You are completely backwards, the trend is away from that. The myth that interbreeding makes them the same species was never accurate, but it is completely unused in modern times. Fo
