Hosea, I tried to email you but can't since I'm a guy. I just wanted to
be sure you knew I wasn't trying to correct you - I think its perfectly
fine to use the word "race" the way you were using it, even though
Trizar is 'technically' correct about there being 'three main branches'.

I'm Heinz 57

Hey Felisha my momma is orange and my dad is brown. Does that count? LOL

Both of my parents were orange. And a little green, too.

spanish-irish

Hosea, I*m not sure how much you undersand about ethnicies/I may spell
somew words wrong.... butthe whire race is refered to as the caucasion
race... Polish german irish englich swedes spanish, and al most all
europe is caucasion.. rusiia checks etc etc.. but they are differntent
nationalitys.. Differnt ethnicc groups...But all belong to the white
race...So hosea you are almost all white from what you listed... This is
a fact by7 the way, and I never meet anyone b4 that thought Irish (im
half) was a race.... sort of funny

haha massage. if you saw my mom, you would see that she is orange haha

my beautiful family.....I am white, mostly irish, and spanish.
My daughter in law is mexican american (native and spanish) my grandson,
is also amirican mexican (native and spanish.. My little lovly
granddaughter (is 1/2 irish, and mecian american) meaning native and
spanish... we are not interracial, rather inter ethnical....

Trizar, can't you see this is merely a semantic issue? You make a good
point about the three primary branches in human racial division, but
before you go correcting someone else's use of language, you might want
to check a dictionary. Your's is not the only acceptance use for the
word "race".

ha ha ha very funny boredchick.. ummmm no

We first need to examine the definition of the word race.

Race is commonly thought of as being three divisions of mankind; the
Caucasian, the Mongoloid and the Negroid races. Webster's New World
Dictionary has this definition:

RACE: Any of the major biological divisions of mankind, distinguished by
color and texture of hair, color of skin and eyes, stature, bodily
proportions, etc: many ethnologists now consider that there are only
three primary divisions, the Caucasian (loosely ‘white race), Negroid
(loosely ‘black race) and Mongoloid (loosely, ‘yellow race), with
various subdivisions: the term has acquired so many unscientific
connotations that in this sense it is often replaced in scientific usage
by ‘ethic stock or ‘group.”

It is interesting to note that this definition infers the fact that the
term is a loose one and that modern science is replacing it with other
words. Also by definition race is determined by physical
characteristics. Traditionally biblical scholars have concluded that the
three races were the progeny of Noah's three sons, Shem, Japheth and
Ham.1

Japheth is the father of the Caucasian race, Shem of the Mongoloid race,
and Ham of the Negroid race. Some have interpreted Noah's prophecies of
his sons in Genesis 9 to be the Scriptural basis for discrimination of
one race to another. Particularly, the supposed curse on Ham's son,
Canaan was purported to be Biblical support of Negro slavery. We will
deal with that later in this paper.

Basically race is a vague term and is difficult to define. If race is
based on the color and texture of hair by what guidelines are we to
classify the different shades of hair from black to blonde? A look
around at any group of people indicates that hair color has little to do
with what we think of as race. In any group of Caucasian people no two
hair shades are alike. Hair texture and a person's stature also differ
with each individual. Although skin color appears to be an easier method
of distinguishing one race from another, a closer look presents the fact
that it, too, is a vague rule of thumb. The problem lies in determining
how to classify all the varying shades of color between black and white.
In order to accomplish this, one must increase the number of races and
list various subgroups. As the classification process continues it tends
to make classification less significant and definable.

Thus the task of defining race is highly subjective making it
unscientific. It also brings us to the conclusion that race is not
clearly definable and is not a good term to use in describing the
variations among people.

Apologies to Felisha for cluttering her thread, and to Tulip for boring
her.

Trizar, I wonder if while cut-n-pasting this page:

http://www.bible-truth.org/race.htm

you might have also stumbled upon "www.m-w.com"

2 a : a family, tribe, people, or nation belonging to the same stock.

My racial stock includes Irish, and many others.

so in which race would the american indian be classified in.

IDK

cherokee/icelandic--or is it greenlandic--
