A PROPOS DK CURRENT POST THE CONCEPT OF RACE ITSELF
Following up on this prior post and vexed group of issues, I have tried in various posts since this one to set the stage regarding how one might think about such things.
There are those who will say that 'civilization' is artificial, or that religious distinctions are artificial in light of other similarities across religious lines.
They might suggest that class distinctions, whether based on religion, or wealth, or tradition, or other things as well, are artificial. Fair enough. That is their view.
Racial differences are apparent, yet race differences are an artificial category of distinction in isolation from other differences and similarities. Race, culture, religion, and civilization tend to be more, or less, loosely related.
