Last I checked your expert Dawkins was neither a geneticist, anthropologist or even biophysicist - all he is is an evolutionary biologist, and behaviourist. So you can't use him as an expert in other fields that he has an opinion on.

There are no distinct human races, all human beings belong to the same race.
You couldn't answer any of my questions which should be easy if your claims were true.
1. How many distinct human races are there, and what are they?
2. Show me geneticists who say they can determine what a person's distinct race is from their DNA?
