[QUOTE]Originally posted by Archeopteryx: [QB] Indeed some racists do use different kinds of pseudo evolutionary arguments. One can now and then read arguments claiming that humans got more intelligent on northern latitudes due to the challenges of a cold climate which demanded better planning of resources and invention of different technologies to fight cold climates, for example sturdier houses, better clothes and so on. Some even involve Neanderthals in their arguments, claiming that people in Europe got more intelligent due to mixing with Neanderthals. In some groups one can see a sort of mix between religious and evolutionary arguments since bigots use whatever ammunition they can find to defend a racist world view. So some combine the curse of Ham with Darwin. One could also ask some religious people questions like if they think that God created races differently. One sneaky form of racism has been used by one or another pastor who claimed that Black Americans where lucky when they got enslaved since it meant that they learned to know Jesus and the gospels. So in polls one have to ask more pointed and detailed questions about how both evolutionary and religious thinking affect peoples view regarding issues of race and similar. [/QB][/QUOTE]
