White Americans are both genetically weaker and less diverse than their black compatriots, a Cornell University-led study finds.

Researchers analyzed the genetic makeup of 20 Americans of European ancestry and 15 African-Americans.

The Europeans showed much less variation among 10,000 tested genes than did the Africans, which was expected, but also that Europeans had many more possibly harmful mutations than did African, which was not.

Guns and cigarettes?

LOL!

And don't forget the notorious AK-47 (47 redneck bootleggers from Arkansas who decided to call themselves a gang)

“...genetically...less diverse...”

Maybe whites are closer to being finished product.

There are TWO different days of creation described. That word ‘the’ Adam literally means ruddy - and/or to show blood in the face. The Adam which means to show blood in the face was by Heavenly Design to be the lineage to Christ protected at every turn. Protected even to the point that Mary the Mother of Jesus was here on this earth at that appointed time. Yet God Himself says that ALLLLL souls belong to him and man was formed/created in the Let US make man in OUR image. And God said his creation was ‘good’. Only man makes what God set in motion a thing of ‘racism’, sure is NOT of the Heavenly Father, because alllll who will have that opportunity of life eternal.

Well, with such a gargantuan sample size, it’s pretty much incontrovertible.

This could work to our advantage. Since we can’t help it, doesn’t the government owe us something to help us with our disabilities?

Does this mean that affirmative action programs can now be cancelled?

I can only wonder how much such a study cost and the reasons they gave for having such study.

It pleases their masters (whoever or whatever they may be)and gets their grant funded or refunded. Ahhh studies; wherever would we be without them?
