You have already said it at least three times, that you are or was "talking about the concepts of race." What it looks like to me is, you are not the only one talking about the concept of race. You already made it a point to mention that not only you, but others as well were all talking about the concept of race. When you said that, you seemed to be eluding that I am the only one who seems not to be talking about the same thing.

Please, you tell me, is there a such thing as a limitation on concepts of any nature? If so, was what I discussed outside of the limit?

Is there no such thing as layers within conepts? If so, was what I discussed not one of the layers?

Is there only one degree to a concept? If so, I guess your degree was the one and the only one.

Let's see, you weren't indirectly insulting when you said this below?

"you want to take credit"

"It is not individual"

"doesn't' make you less of an independent thinker"
I'm sorry, do you know me? It seems as though, you have spent a lengthy amount of time sizing me up.

The above seemed to imply many indirect implications. I dont' care for implications. If you have something to say, say it don't imply it.

Of course, you are going probably come back with a response which will go something like this...

Never mind
