Are Human Races biologically relevant? Socially? It seems Biology has been taken hostage by the PC crowd.

species is usually meant to distinguish groups of animals capable of breeding to produce successive generations
all existant human groups can accomplish this and are therefore not distinct species in that definition of the word
define what you mean by "biologically relevant" because it's obvious that there are differences between races which enable forensic scientists and other medical professionals to make different decisions when dealing with people of different races, because things like IQ are influenced by genetics as well as environmental factors it is not acceptable to question the relevance of race in studies on intellectual performance

yes it's biologically relevant the same as intraspecies genetic diversity results in the existence of organisms with variable traits so too do there exist interspecies biological differences

Can't you read ? OP is talking about race and his pic about subspecies, not species.

The word "race" was invented when François Bernier published a brief essay dividing humanity into what he called "races", distinguishing individuals, and particularly women, by skin color and a few other physical traits. The article was published anonymously in the Journal des sçavans, the earliest academic journal published in Europe, and titled "New Division of the Earth by the Different Species or 'Races' of Man that Inhabit It."

Race is just another word for species, brainlet. Even racists fail to recognize this, for some reason.

people adhere to the term race because it's gained semantic dominance, that's really all it is, species is less used i would argue

Yes asian women can safely have a BMI below 18

The word race existed long before that essay, and the word species didn't get that >>13253599 definition until the twentieth century. At the time of Bernier it could be used for any category based on similarity.
So no, race is not just another word for species.

You're playing with words to avoid a reasonable discussion, and that makes you worse than a retard.
...Are you jewish btw?

If we're talking about human species, then we've only had a single human species for the past several millennia. So it's not relevant in any way unless we're talking about human paleobiology since we're all the same species.

The point I made >>13255992 is that we're not.
