RE: Come Oh Ye Rational Thinkers...and explain race theory to me

The OP has a point. Racial categories are not biologically valid ways of classifying people. Instead racial/ethnic distinctions reflect cultural identity. Its a separation between 'us' and 'them' for personal/social/political reasons. Cultural identity comes from a variety of factors, language, food, geography, genetic traits, religion, etc. FWTW, the same goes for gender. People either have the Y chromosome or they don't.
