Maybe originally but you don't spend 2,000 years in exile without some genetic intermixing. With all the pograms, rapes, and intential genetic exchanges occuring I doubt "Jews" can be described as being geneticly homogenius.

No such thing. The British are mongrels.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I would belive 99% of the Apolytoners are nerdy white couch potatoes who only see the sun when there is a server crash

And there are basically only 3 races - Jews, Hispanics, Anglosaxons and "Aryans" all belong to the same race.

Pseudo-on-topic, I will continue to use the N-word as long as there are countries calling themselves Nigeria, Niger and Montenegro...

That's not true. Even though most Brits look the same race, you can trace their genetic lineage quite easily back to Nordic peoples, saxons, and Celts. The three groups have mixed surprisingly little.

Only for extremists. I've been there less than ten times in the last year. And Apolyton has had a server failure almost every day for weeks now. The admins turned off avatars and search functions and still there are crashes.

Bantu/West African
Ethiopian
North African
Semitic (Middle Eastern)
Indo-Aryan (Persian + Indian)
Bausqe
West European
North European
East European
Uralic (Finns + Magyars)
Caucusus Peoples (Armenia, Georgia, Azerbajian)
Dravidian
Sino-Tibetan (Chinese, Thai)
West Altic (Turkic)
East Altic ( Mongol, Korean, Japanese, Siberian native)
SE Asian (Vietnamese, Cambodian, etc.)
Austronesian (Hmong, Indonesian, Malygasy, Pacific Islander)
Astralian Aborigone/New Gueanian (sp?)
Inuit-Alut
Askabathian Native American (Navajo, Huron, Ojibwa, etc.)
Other Native American

Odin, I would believe some of those on your list are rather language groups than genetical races (like Finns and Maygars)

Hispanic does not necessarily = Mexican....

And even in that case there are almost undistinguishably White Hispanics (whether they are Mexicans or Argentine or Venezuelan, etc.), ditto for Black Hispanics and "Indian" (more like Native American, rather) Hispanics, with the obvious majority consisting of different degrees of "Mixed" Hispanics, usually called "Mestizos" (which is what many of you probably, and wrongly from a strictly academic point of view, understand for "Hispanic").

Therefore, "Hispanic" properly understood is more of a cultural group than any single "race".

But Niuger and Nigeria are refrences to the Niger river. Certainly not refrences to that other N-word.
