You're labelling a race as an ethnic group to try and support a feeble argument.
We are talking about genes for God's sake.
Originally posted by GinoJThe term race serves to distinguish between populations or groups of people based on different sets of characteristics which is commonly determined through social conventions. The most widely used human racial categories are based on visible traits (especially skin color, facial features and hair texture), genes, and self-identification.

Very much related to race.
Originally posted by GinoJBut your fundamental error seems to be that you are mistaking the "arian race" as defined in Mein Kamph, with white people (the phrase used in the beginning of this thread)...By your definition, i would be a white person, but my brother would not.
