i read somewhere there really are only three true races. caucasian, asian, and black. so arabs and jews would then fall under caucasian. i think government documentation and all that list more to further classify people but scientifically there are three. i wish i had a link to back up that argument but i haven't found one yet. i forgot where i read it! maybe sharon (where has she been lately anyway?) can further discuss this with us?!

Biologically there is no such thing as race at all. There is more genetic diversity within each "race" than between races, and race is a social construct. So scientifically, there are no races :)

None of my posts have ever been helpful. Be forewarned.

Why would Arabs and Jews be Caucasian? How does being Arab or Jewish denote a race? Race is a social construct, often a political one.
