Are all human races really equal?

Why is it that for those who value their freedom of expression as much as health, wealth, and prosperity, Nordic countries dominated the top 5 slots, with Finland no 1, Sweden in third place followed by Denmark and Norway. (Switzerland is 2nd, which is not part of the Nordic countries). The top 10 were all also Western nations, with Australia (6th place) and Canada (7th place) both beating the United States, ranked 9th. Britain came in at number 12. In Asia, Japan was the region’s highest ranked country at number 16, followed by Hong Kong (18th place) and Singapore (23rd place) and Taiwan (24th place).
And the world’s least prosperous country? According to the Legatum Index, it is Zimbabwe, with Sudan and Yemen close runners-up. Most of the bottom ranking nations are in Africa.
Objective research shows that the world’s most advanced, most prosperous and progressive nations are in Europe, i.e the West. A cursory search on the internet invariably registers basically the same answer time and again, year after year…and we are not even taking into account the past and the historical timeline.

white people are a mutation of the human race and an abomination of nature
No, human beings are not equal.
Physiologically, all races are equal. They are built the same way out of the same materials. The differences to which you refer are cultural, not racial. Finland, Sweden, etc contain people of ALL “races”; their advantages reflect their location and culture, not their genetic makeup.
In a perfect world every race would be equal. People don’t see it this way though. Racist people to me are not eqaul as human beings. At least to me.
There are quite a few books that offer a good explanation for this. The most well-known is probably ‘Guns, Germs and Steel’ by Jared Diamond. It explains how Europeans colonized the rest of the world (mostly through force), and caused Africa, Asia and South America to develop more slowly, with corrupt colonial governments. Africa in particular, went from entirely self-ruled to entirely foreign-ruled in just a few decades.
Tests of intelligence and learning ability show that there is really no difference between the races. The idea that darker peoples are less intelligent was a justification for slavery and imperialism for many centuries. It is simply not supported by the facts.
In the 90s a book came out called ‘The Bell Curve’ that purported to show that black people in the US were less intelligent, on average, than white people. Real experts condemned it as pseudo-science. But the real argument was that because blacks are less intelligent -on average-, therefore they should legitimately be allowed to be excluded from college admissions and workplaces. Really, even if they were less intelligent -on average-, individual blacks might be very intelligent! Excluding them by race will only become a self-fulfilling prophesy. You systematically exclude blacks from education (as we did for centuries in the US) and then you point to them being less-educated as proof that they are less intelligent. 8^P
No. But any serious research about racial differences isn’t allowed to occur, lest it offend someone.
The fact is, there are obvious racial differences that the current political climate of white guilt and political correctness won’t allow us to address.
It’s all about history. Scandinavia has chosen a socialist culture. Socialism promotes health, wealth and prosperity.
(by the way – the Netherlands is more wealthy/prosperous than Scandinavia. As is Luxembourg, and Monaco).
Anyway, socialism is just a better political system than liberalism, which is better than conservatism, which is better than other systems.
European countries deliberately screwed up the African politics. They just kept the borders drawn because of European politics, regardless of the African state of business. The result: Africa is in chaos. And the southern half of Africa has never known a stable democracy. How could people just suddenly learn to rule, without someone explaining them?
“not even taking into account the past and the historical timeline”. You should. Not taking things into account = simplifying things.
You are oversimplifying things, so you come to incredibly wrong conclusions.
Europe happened to develop capitalism, the scientific method and socialism/liberalism. All of them related, and all of them promote the development. It could have happened anywhere, but the competitive nations and fertile lands made for the perfect breeding grounds for “western values”.
Those values brought Europe to success. Not the fact that it happened with the caucasians.
(by the way, races aren’t equal. But they are close enough. And even if there was a significant difference, you would still be more retarded than 90% of them. Now it’s 99%).
I thought this was interesting: people who come from countries in the northern climates come from a long line of ancestors who had to work with all four seasons in order to survive. They, by necessity, had to plan during the warmer months in order to have food and survive the colder months. It trained them to work on an efficient time schedule and to work hard at the task and make the most of what little resources they had.
They developed a work ethic that valued planning, resourcefulness, effective management of time and effort and a value system that placed self-sufficiency high on the list of core values.
Warmer climates tend to provide longer growing seasons, less harsh living conditions and a tendency to conserve energy during the heat of the day, thus cutting down on productivity and drive.
I don’t know if this is true, but I thought it was interesting.
What about Eastern Europe?
Tell me one third world nation that wasn’t colonized and ruled from afar by a culture that was completely disparate from that of the its native inhabitants. Can’t do it? You have your answer.
Yeah?
