And a race/ethnicity that lives in colder climates is probably more likely to come up with christmas trees and santa claus.

2018-11-07 10:37:39 UTC  

and those do rather poorly right now...

2018-11-07 10:37:46 UTC  

you can teach monkey to act like human.
but it will never do that by it self.

2018-11-07 10:37:51 UTC  

Christmas Tree was a German thing though.

2018-11-07 10:38:18 UTC  

Yes, I am just saying that culture and race probably inform each other. It's not completely random.

2018-11-07 10:38:31 UTC  

and that monkey will act like that only because humans arond it.

2018-11-07 10:38:41 UTC  

A culture that lives in a colder climate probably has more incentive to develop agriculture.

2018-11-07 10:38:46 UTC  

IMO higher IQ is necessary for high population densitys (=Citiies).

2018-11-07 10:39:00 UTC  

before you couldn't share the same culture with people you didn't interact with. This is obvious. It has nothing to do with race/religion/etc

2018-11-07 10:39:01 UTC  

No, a Culture with high Population Density 😉

In colder climates, you might have to plan ahead more to be able to make it rhough the winter. At the equator, you don't have to deal with seasonal irragularities.

2018-11-07 10:39:28 UTC  

By the way, none of this is new.

2018-11-07 10:39:39 UTC  

This is known as the Savannah Effect, among other things.

2018-11-07 10:39:43 UTC  

That as well. Its the Winter Theorie. IMO its one point but not the only noe.

2018-11-07 10:39:46 UTC  

@Stefan Payne I highly agree

2018-11-07 10:40:06 UTC  

and in colder climates with low population, you can make it through the Winter without planning, you just need to hunt deer or so.

2018-11-07 10:40:31 UTC  

So, I am not even being controversial here.

2018-11-07 10:40:36 UTC  

@Undead Mockingbird Inform how? Race has nothing to do with culture it depends on the society you live in and if you integrate well into the prevalent cultural environment. I would argue that religion plays a more important role in informing culture than race does.

2018-11-07 10:40:44 UTC  

It's just that those topics always arouse an undue amount of emotions.

2018-11-07 10:41:03 UTC  

@RadialDerp I just explained how.

2018-11-07 10:41:13 UTC  

I am not going to rehash it again. Scroll up.

2018-11-07 10:41:20 UTC  

@RadialDerp That's the Nature vs. Nurture Argument. And you can't distinguish both from each other....

2018-11-07 10:41:29 UTC  

but we have two examples: Europe and Indochina.

2018-11-07 10:41:34 UTC  

look at what happened here and there.

2018-11-07 10:41:36 UTC  

Culture is created by religion, religion is based on geography

2018-11-07 10:41:39 UTC  

*he is too low IQ to understand what you said*😏

2018-11-07 10:41:48 UTC  

What part of that is race based?

2018-11-07 10:41:59 UTC  

Ones are more in the direction of personal freedom, others more of collective things.

2018-11-07 10:42:06 UTC  

BTW, I have not even made a single statement of judgment. Any amount of anger that is caused by this discussion is projection on the part of OTHERS what value I assign, not me.

2018-11-07 10:42:18 UTC  

If this triggers emotions, it is value YOU project, not I.

2018-11-07 10:42:20 UTC  

That's the thing, you can not say that either is race based or it is not. Both belong together.

2018-11-07 10:42:25 UTC  

@Cody culture is created by race not religion.
that race of people can also create religion.😉

2018-11-07 10:42:35 UTC  

Please explain

2018-11-07 10:42:49 UTC  

@Undead Mockingbird environmental factors will inform behavior but that in my estimate is quite separate from culture as a whole. I grew up in a tropical country that had 3 different types of environments packed together. The culture among the majority race and religion was essentially the same throughout with minor cuisine differences

2018-11-07 10:43:34 UTC  

@RadialDerp That is different from the culture you adopt by birth, but it is not separate from how cultures DEVELOP, over many thousand years.

2018-11-07 10:43:35 UTC  

you guys are discussing outdated stuff. With more means of travel and the internet, culture is more scathered than ever

2018-11-07 10:44:12 UTC  

Your telling me that in 1642 africans and Europeans would have the same culture if they existed in the opposite geographic locations?
