The race article is less affected by leftist politically correct racial dogma than I had expected it to be. On the other hand, there is a certain degree of excessive non-judgmentalism, as if the leftist dogma of racial equality and the scientific evidence concerning racial differences were at some sort of parity, each being as convincingly weighty and worthy of respect as its opposite. Nothing of the kind. However, that being said, this race article is more fair and in accord with the facts than I'd thought it would be.

Note: I read the race article at about noon EST on 14 October 2009. If the text has been altered since then, then some or all of my comments might not be related to any revisions which were made.

I will append some thoughts of my own hereafter, either in replies to this discussion or in separate discussions to the race article.
