Who started this no races/race is a myth bullsh-t! Most anthropologists divide the world's population into for major races - white/Caucasian; Mongoloid/Asian; Negroid/black, and Australoid. You have to be really thick to say that there is no such thing as race. Particularly you twats who call people 'racists' when you are losing an argument.

No, they don't. And they haven't done for about 70-80 years now. Science changes over time. Apparently not everyone keeps up.

ttbn, no one has to call you a racists, you do that yourself through what you post. In the case of Devanand Sharma you seen it as necessary to describe him as "just someone with a multicultural name". Clearly if his name was David Smith you would not be referring to him as "just someone with a Anglo-Saxon name".

Is there a concern on your part that people with as you say, having multicultural names (new comers), are obtaining positions of decision making in Australian society. What is your opinion on prejudicism in Australia? Does it exists, is it necessary? Take that in the context that not all racists are irrational haters, some have genuine concerns about theirs, and others like them, being subjected to changes brought on by migration.

Toni Lavis would have us believe that for “70-80 years now” there has been no such thing as 'race'. There are now no white people, no black people, no swarthy people, no yellowish people; we all look the same. No telling us apart! We have gone back to pre-Babel days, and now all speak the same language. “Science” tell us so!

“Apparently  not everyone keeps up”, says Toni. Clearly Toni speaks through his backside, and needs to have his eyesight checked.

No, that's not what I said. I said that anthropologists don't use the four race model that you described, and haven't done for the better part of a century. It's obsolete; like caloric theory or spontaneous generation. You can keep using obsolete scientific theories if you want; there's no law against it, it just seems a bit anachronistic.

No you did not say that. All you said, after quoting me was this:

"No, they don't. And they haven't done for about 70-80 years now. Science changes over time. Apparently not everyone keeps up."

Lying to others so obviously is one thing; lying to yourself is really peculiar. You didn't even check to see what you actually said before you blurted out your defence of the indefensible.
