THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

HUMAN RACES DEVELOPED AS ONE WOULD EXPECT | 2004-03-27

What has resulted is exactly what you would expect to happen. The black race which has adapted to its unhealthy environment has generally remained primitive. The Oriental race makes advances, but it lacks an individualistic drive to leap forward and continue with technical advances. One Oriental genius developed a mechanical clock, but that invention was lost. They invented a printing press, but it made no big difference.

When the aggressive pink race got a printing press, it immediately caused enormous changes, including religious wars on a vast scale. When they got a mechanical clock, millions of them were made. Gunpowder, which had been in China for centuries, soon destroyed the entire feudal structure of society that had existed in white (pink) countries previously.

Gunpowder made no real difference to Oriental society at all, though they had had it for centuries. In the pink-skinned world, they went from gunpowder to rockets that could reach other planets.

None of this is mysterious, and it seems that any reasonably intelligent being would expect these results. But the same humans who are engaged in interplanetary travel still have no idea why different races do different things.

Humans understand midget mammoths, but they do not understand themselves.
