races will not fade away


i disagree with you there.. i mean how after nearly 500 years of decent transport links around the world and the whole conglomerate thing... i find it quite amusing to think at how all the races have stayed separate.

for that to happen every single black person (for example) would have to have slept with a non-black person....every single one, think about it.

in 500 years i would have thought that quite abit of it ouldhave disappeared... if not all of course.

bah

Races have stayed separate so far because of ethnocentrism. Not racism or any form of it, just people's tendancies to like people like them more than people who are different. I have no problems with that, as it isn't descriminatory. There is nothing wrong with an American seeking otu the companionship of an American more than an African, but with the way the world is going, I think this will slowly disappear.

There is another option, however, and that is that with advances in communication using computers, travel will become all but obsolete. If that's the case, screw the whole basis for my theory. It would take hundreds of generations to "breed out" the black pigmentation, but it would eventually occur anyways.

Also, the reason we never see the Chief's face is because you are supposed to imagine it as your own. I dont think they hide it because its all robot like and ugly/weird, but because it is you, the player. I am white, thus so is Master Chief when I am playing.

Actually, they are (as a general rule). Because of the fact that most (all?) black people in America have ancestors recently from Africa, they can be more physically fit than other races here. This stems off the fact that Africa had considerably less progress towards an easy style of living during the times of slavery. Also, the African genetic pool is far more diverse than the rest of the world's. This can be explained using evolution, but if you don't believe in evolution, let's just say god did it that way. Also, as a sociological fact, since black people often have less money (social fact) not as many of them can sit on their butts all day watching TV or playing video games. As a result, the average black person has genetics that favor activity and survival more than a white guy's or Asian guy's genes. I merely cite facts here, there is absolutely no bias in my statement, so you cannot disagree with me.
Since I don't want this discussion to turn into a debate over race in some way, I will no longer comment on this topic. I have led the discussion way off already. PM me if you disagree.

Okay, it could be true on the average (im a lazy @$$ video gaming white dude like most of you prob), but it was still definately a silly thing to say...very random.

You bring up a very valid point. When talking about sensitive racial issues, you should never generalize, as Bedlam did originally. Instead, you need to make clear that what you're saying applies as an average, then cite the reason for it.

Example bad:White people are smarter than black people.
Why is it bad: I know of plenty of black people who are smarter than 99% of the population.
Example good: The avaerage white person is smarter than the average black person; this is mainly because society has favored the white man for many generations, causing an imbalance in education.
Why is it good: It is a fact. You cannot argue a fact. You could, however, argue the reasoning behind the fact.

Because all a cyborg is is a person living with a machine part in their body. Technically, anyone with a pace maker or artificial leg is a cyborg.
