As I said in another post at the biological level there are only biological patterns of value
and there is not a race, gene or chromosone in sight.
Race appears to be a social level phenomenom - but, as Rog used to say, I could be
wrong.
My question would be how does race manifest itself at the biological level in the
absence of either a social or intellectual level.
