Wouldn't that be related to human subspecies instead of race? It is like the different subspecies of wolves, but only one race of wolves...or am I confusing things?

Edited by Nonebot: 3/31/2016 6:44:56 PMThe correct term is dictated by the 99.9% of people who use it in this instance. I would say "subspecies" works but "race" is the word people are going to be familiar with and understand. Race noun Definition of race 1: a breeding stock of animals 2 a : a family, tribe, people, or nation belonging to the same stock b : a class or kind of people unified by shared interests, habits, or characteristics 3 a : an actually or potentially interbreeding group within a species; also : a taxonomic category (as a subspecies) representing such a group b : breed c : [b]a category of humankind that shares certain distinctive physical traits[/b] 4 obsolete : inherited temperament or disposition

Those multiple definitions of the same term shows exactly why I posted this poll. It is all about how you interpret the word.

Then by this definition there are several correct uses of the word, as long as those uses fall within the confines of biological stock, ancestral origin, or group behaviors that have evolved due to biological stock or ancestral origin. Things like religion or country of birth wouldn't count unless they are also somehow related to a shared group origin or stock. Alone, those things are not a race. The definition of race is not up for debate except to Cultural Marxist who believe that race doesn't exist.
