Racism is the fact of using race to make choices about someone like for example how you deal with them, talk to them, and making decisions based on the color of their skin or based on their physical attributes.

However, there is one thing I accept to use race on: 1) The cultural awareness (a positive thing). 2) Using peoples' physical attributes for a sport, and the people end up being of a certain race by that selection factor, that is acceptable because the selection factor was physical capability.

Every attribute is "physical", that's because there's nothing "non-physical" in the universe.

The brain functions on physical attributes, how fast the action potentials can run, how fast your synapses can have LTP, how much neurotransmitors are released in each action potential, how many synapses can your brain have, how big is your Pre-Frontal Cortex, how fast does your Amygdala react, how much testosterone there's in your body, how much serotonin is there in your BIS compared to your BAS and so on.

Everything's physical, and everything traces to genetics way more than it does to enviorment, just like with height.



Bet with Dr.A.Peter.Nintendo that Super Mario Galaxy 2 won't sell 15 million copies up to six months after it's release, the winner will get Avatar control for a week and signature control for a month.
