You ever actively looked into race theory? 

Specifically American but much applies to here. 

Id suggest it might be worth your time, if you're actually interested in understand things that make you say posts like this one I'm replying to. 

Have you looked into it like and if so, how far?

One assumes he means critical race theory.  That's a Yank thing.  Maybe he doesn't.

It includes facts to assert its theory. 

If that's the case, it would negate it being defined as a theory as it would be classified as scientific knowledge, not theory?.

The Big Bang is a theory based on facts we know.

I did. And I said it was American but can also draw parallels to the UK.

Consi's contacts in the harlems and ghettos of the US of A that provide him with words are not to be underestimated.?

I don't believe in the Big Bang theory at all as it is purely based on suppositions and hearsay.

What do you mean? 
 

I've read books on the stuff yah. 
 

Wouldn't say I've studied it. My suggestion for MHD is that he maybe looks into something like so, so he wouldn't sound so unbelievably ignorant.

 

Not claiming to be an expert on it but if someone is truly interested in understanding where people are coming from and not just getting angry at articles designed to make you so, it's something worth looking into. 
 

Of course, you can reject the theory and arguments presented, but it's worth looking into something that you've not given much thought to.

I'm 50/50 on that subject.?

It's like asking someone "do you believe in knowledge or semantics?"

Fair enough. I'm more of a sceptic than an empiricist though, young Consi. 

Disproving something is far easier than proving something.

Ignorant about what?  I just said black folk are always talking about being black,  which they do. It's a fact. You started talking about why this might be,  and race theory. Two different things. It doesn't make someone ignorant because they haven't read the same literature as you.

Ben Johnson was incredibly fast. A fantastic inspiration for minor ethnics in regards to the concept of anything is possible. ?

A Bananarama and Fun Boy Three song springs to mind.

When you said "not supposed to see colour" that prompted me to say you were ignorant. 

 

Because that's not what people are saying on the issue of race atm. The opposite, in fact. 
 

To not see colour is to basically say racism doesn't exist- which it does.

Personally,  I think constantly focusing on race just creates a  'them and us'  mentality.  It's counter productive. We should all just rub along in harmony and forget our differences.  You don't agree?

Well not really, because then you're working on the assumption there are no differences, we are all treated the same, and there aren't issues. 

The "them and us" mentality wasn't created by black people, m8.

A Greek fella won the 200m at the 2000 Olympics,  that was a surprise.

It's them that's accentuating it these days though,  which was my original point.  Time to move on from historical grievances and look to a brighter future,  like in the telly adverts.

[maryhilldon]

Everyone in Britain will look like Gary Lineker within the next 100 years anyway,  so racial differences will be consigned to history.
