I'll play your game one last time. All you're saying is"baseless drivel".

You can't have it both ways. You can't refuse to articulate why you feel your sources support your claims and simply assert they answer the issues I have with it and then expect me to go through and display the intellectual rigor that you just opted out of. It doesn't work your way.
 
 I'm done with your nonsense.

K. Thanks. Bye.

A few misconceptions.
1) I can refuse anything, for any reason, whenever I desire.
2) My source doesn't contradict your claim or vice versa.
3) I am not expecting you to go through any "intellectual rigor". - The onus is on you to do it or not.

The fact is... The source that I presented is describing how skin pigmentation evolved due to geographical+UV influences, this isn't opinion, it's fact.
What you are trying to assert is how human populations disseminated across the globe. - Both can also occur at the same time, both can also be unrelated.

It's like some people who tries to assert that Evolution is trying to describe how life came to be, when it doesn't, that would be abiogenesis.

Now I ask you to go back to the start and try again or agree or move on.

Okay. Because I respect your contributions to this message board in the past. One last post.

1) Of course you can refuse anything for any reason, but there are consequences for refusing to do converse in a reasonable way, and that typically is opting out of the expectation for people to do for you what you refused to do for them. You claim you didn't expect me to do that, but I'll get to that.

2) Of course your source doesn't contradict my claims. That's what I've been saying the entire time. Your source is entirely irrelevant the comment you responded to. Yet, you used it to refute my point that you can't tell the country of origin of a person using a single picture of that person.  It would be like if I was discussing the evolution of some species, and you told me "but you're wrong, here's a source about abiogenesis that proves it", and then acting like a horses ass when I correctly point out that it's irrelevant. That doesn't add up, does it? Yet here you are, post after post expecting me to provide scientific evidence that proves your source doesn't in fact refute my claims when you even fucking admit it yourself!

Forget the rest. You agree with me, yet are expecting me to refute your claim. Fucking unbelievable.

P.S. Even using your chart, someone with the "medium peach?" colored skin tone could be from the USA, France, Mongolia, Korea, or Argentina to name a few. That's four different continents. The darker tone covering the Southern US is found in six different continents. You uhh... seeing a trend here? It's like you can't even tell what "region" country someone is from based on a single picture, unless "region" means "Earth". See that's the thing about sources. It doesn't matter how rock-solid the science is behind them if someone can't even interpret the meaning behind the findings.


That's it. I'm done
