If white people eveolved from black people, then how come whites evolved to be the superior race.
Before you go off on how racist that is and start saying that black people invented stuff and are the greatest scientist and so forth...back that claim up...with sources! I am not racist, i am just going by facts and my extensive travels. Just type in YouTube "human sacrifices" and "witch doctor" or "cannibals in Africa"...and then try to find similar savagery that goes on in Europe.

"Racist" means you believe that people can be substantially categorized by race. You are clearly racist. You merely accept that racism as a belief is justified and ask others to establish that it is not.

Africa is natural resource poor. Just like much of South America is. That's why you still see many primitive cultures in both. It has nothing to do with the inherent intelligence of the individuals. You won't see all that in Europe? Maybe not *today*. But try looking up some of the pagan human sacrifice and all the barbarian hoard battles that went on in Europe a thousand years ago or so. Well preserved bodies of ancient human sacrifice victims turn up pretty regularly in British bogs.



We "evolved" from Black people? Try studying a little biology. There is today only one human race on Earth. Some species have actual different "races". Honey bees for example. But a truly different "race" must be genetically divergent. That doesn't exist among humans today. DNA tests and other experiments have proven that what we consider to be different "races" among us are literally only skin deep. Genetically there is no more difference between a white person and a black person than there is between a white person with blonde hair and a white person with brown hair.



If you'll study a little history you'll see that the main thing that led to Europe dominating most of the world was.....the plague. Yep, the plague. It killed off millions which led to a labor shortage. So machines had to be invented to fill this gap in cheap and readily available human labor. These machines invented by necessity led to the industrial revolution.



Anyone who thinks that people are automatically smarter just because they're "white" has obviously never watched that Honey Boo Boo show.......

... asks the person who just posted in the wrong category.



White people didn't evolve from black people, we are the same species with some mutated genes that stop us making as much melanin. That's all.



The differences in achievement between the various races are because of culture. Not so long ago in evolutionary terms white Europeans were performing human sacrifice while black Africans were building the temples of Thebes.

True, Africans didn't have an industrial revolution that allowed them to take over the world. They also didn't fight pointless wars using machines to kill millions of people, build concentration camps or drop atom bombs. We have different savagery.

Haha, much of what is deemed as intelligence is how you were brought up. Get a black person and put him in an urban white community, and because he doesn't have the SKILLS necessary he will look dumb. Put a white person in an African village and he will go hungry and Africans will wonder why he doesn't eat the food that nature provides him. If writing and history are irrelevant in your culture, then obviously you won't care about it.

Everyone could be smart.... A friend of mine (white person) is at the rank of 5 while my other friend (A little black) is at the first place of honors at school

Think about it. In school you didn't learn much about "Black" people. You learned only of white history, a history that consisted of cannibalism and cave men. This was when Africa was considered primitive. Once society started to learned of the great wonders of Africa (i.e. Pyramids and Hieroglyphics) the European scholars conformed their findings and teachings to place their origins in the middle of ancient colored (Black or Arab) civilization by stating that all men are from Africa and white Jewish slaves build Pyramids for white Pagan Pharisees in an Egyptian desert. In regard to those "Jews" the President of Egypt Stated "You left BLACK, but came back white" (someones lying). [(digression) I have heard Jews attempt to respond by saying the Jews had been turned dark by the desert, but once they left their pigment returned. but BLACKS have been removed from the desert for centuries yet they remain "Black". (Someones lying) Rev 2:9 "I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan." ] As far as intellect goes, if white people were snatched from America, separated, tortured, and enslaved in a foreign land with a foreign language and denied basic liberties (i.e. freedom, liberty) and denied not only the right to receive an education, but the right to educate ones self how "smart" would they be. What you see before in regards to the state of African Americans is a result of such slavery and oppression. Not to mention corporate manipulation and social injustice. But a little food for thought. Once upon a time blacks were not allowed to play baseball. Once that changed, the few who did choose to play became the greatest in the history of the game (i.e. Hank Arron, Jackie Robinson). Blacks weren't allowed to play football or basketball either. Now both of those sports are not only predominately black, but has made jokes of predominately white sports (baseball, Hockey). Merriam Websters dictionary now contains words that were once considered slang, or Ebonics a form of creole spoken by "Black" people. White suburban kids everywhere now listens to "Black" music and where "Black" clothing. Marshall Mathers (Eminem) said "I am the worst thing since Elvis Presley to do BLACK music so successfully, and use it to get myself wealthy" (Without me). Elvis was known for stealing from African Americans and became the greatest performer in white history. African American such as, Malcolm X, Tupac Shakur,Oprah Winfrey, Martin King Jr.,Sean Combs and many more have shown that given a fair opportunity to openly express themselves "Blacks" are not only as valuable but possibly more valuable to the U.S. and the World. Like training in weighted clothing, black are held down and their potential bottled and capped. Once the restrictions are removed and the playing field is even the lease bit leveled there are no limits to what "Blacks" can accomplish.



P.S. Don't worry about us, we are not your problem. The money we get in welfare is given back in the $300 billion we spend annually.

Race does not mean anything on how smart you are if you study hard and work hard in school you can be very very very smart.

You methodology of determining superior smartness is deeply flawed, as are most racial arguments.

This is a pretty stupid question, if you ask me. So, there goes your theory out the window.
