Pakistan isn't part of the ME.

As you can see in my location, I'm from the US. Mediterrian people are white, on both sides of the sea. Just like Africans and East Asians come in different shades, so do white people. Thin blooded Nords aren't the be-all and end-all of whiteness, no matter what Adolf told you.

VB: you know, if you seriously consider anything south of the Alps to be another "race", then there are thousands upon thousands of "races" in the world, all of them blending hopelessly into each other.

Oh yeah, you think I made up that site and the chart to go with it in two seconds?! Believe what you want to believe, but that site contains much better data and evidence than anything you've said.

yes, I agree. But splitting into black, yellow, white1, white2, white3.1, white3.2, and white3.222 is even more exact (and hence blurry and unfounded.)

"White" is a subjective term that has been abused by Europeans far too long to mean only Christian "Nordics". Hence Middle Easterners, who distance themselves from the West (understandably), would not use the word "white".

Try words like "Caucasoid", "Mongoloid", "Negroid", "Australoid".

Do you find it equally offensive when someone refers to someone of European or African ancestry as "white" or "black"?

The site is a bit more extensive than just the map, you know. Here's the whole thing:

Racial Myths

I seem to recall reading somewhere that some people have a hard time finding bone marrow donors because people of their race only make up a small percentage of the U.S. population. Or maybe they were looking for donors of mixed race. Anyway, if someone of the same race is required for a transplant, that would seem to indicate that there is indeed some biological aspect to race. Or maybe my brain is playing tricks on me, and I've completely misremembered.

What I don't fully understand is why this topic is so offensive to so many people. Could someone enlighten me on that?

I think that's an answer for you, right there.

But a question for people who don't believe in race: What do you term the geographically-related, pretty obvious genetic differences between people then?

There is no such thing as 'race' - it's only a false belief, or a myth.

It is about the insecurity of some people who want to portray themselves as "white".

WHy on earth this is important or how it helps them deal with their insecurities is beyond me.
