On the Equality of Races
I've added the "prod" template to the article On the Equality of Races, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:On the Equality of Races. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

On Racial Equality
The quote, “All men are created equal” says what it says: all men are created equal. I am going to prove, however, that races are in fact not equal; meaning some races are better than others.

Athleticism

To begin, it is postulated by many scientists that blacks have the highest testosterone levels of all the races. (Race and Testosterone Levels) In fact, blacks have 3 to19% more testosterone than whites and Asians. This would explain why every single finalist sprinter in the 2004 Olympics was black; not one of the ten contestants was of a different race. Why were there not other races? Blacks have higher testosterone levels, which makes them easily faster than everyone else. Furthermore, in the NBA about 80% of today's professional basketball players are black. (NBA) This is because blacks have the advantage of running faster and jumping higher than. Also, in the NFL, blacks outnumber whites by more than 10:1 at running back, corner back, and wide receiver; all three of those positions require mobility, agility, athleticism, which is why blacks are more prominent. Blacks, not only having more testosterone, are on average much taller than Asians.

Asians, in contrast, have lower testosterone levels. Race and Testosterone Levels) There were no Asian sprinters whatsoever in the finals of the 2004 Olympics. In addition, less than 3% of the NBA and NFL is Asian. ( NBA ) The lack of Asian players is due to the fact that basketball and football require tall, fast people that have good leaping ability, and Asians, on average, are the shortest race and aren’t fast which is evident from their number of sprinters in the Olympics and lack of testosterone.

Given the facts above, it is clear that blacks are superior to Asians in speed, leaping ability, and height.

Intelligence

Now for the average IQ (Intelligence Quotient) for blacks: The average IQ of black people is approximately 85, which is 15 points below the average IQ. (IQ Graph) Plus, 12% of African-American males between twenty and thirty-four are currently behind bars, whereas only 1.6% of Asian males are serving time at the same ages. (Jail Statistics) Also, in 2003, the average score for African-Americans on the SAT was 857, whereas the national average was 972. That is 115 points below the national average. (2003 SAT Scores)

Conversely, the average IQ of Asians is approximately 108, 8 points above the average IQ, and an astonishing 23 points higher on average than African-Americans. (IQ Graph) And for their SAT scores, Asians in 2003 averaged a 1083, which is 111 points above the national average, and 226 points higher on average than African-Americans. (2003 SAT Scores) In 2003, 24.4% of African-Americans were in poverty, while just 11.8% of Asians were in poverty the same year. (Census.gov)

In summary, blacks scored 23 points lower on IQ tests than Asians, Asians averaged 226 points higher on SAT scores in 2003 than blacks, and more than double the African-American population is in poverty than Asians. Therefore, blacks are on average faster and taller than Asians, but Asians tend to be smarter.

My Argument

Just by looking at the facts above you can determine that, in today’s society, Asians are the better fit race because there isn’t a demand for quickness or height; however, there is a demand for intelligence and discipline in order to be successful. Athleticism and speed is less important than intelligence, making Asians conceivably superior to blacks. So looking purely at the facts, it is obvious that Asians are better than blacks, which therefore proves that races are not equal.

But for the purpose of this argument, let’s say that the differences between Asians and blacks are not in their genetics, but in their environments. In other words, blacks might not be as successful in the classroom because that may not be what is culturally accepted to most of them; they would rather excel in athletics, not academics. On the contrary, Asians may not want to excel in say basketball or track, so they try hard in school and care more about academics. So let’s just say that races are genetically equal in intelligence; no race, on average, is born smarter than another. Well, if that is the case, blacks would have to be a superior race to Asians because if they are just as smart as say Asians, and faster, taller, etc. than Asians, wouldn’t blacks then be considered better than Asians? If they’re more athletic but just as smart, they would have to be better overall.

Therefore, no matter how you slice it, races are better than one another.
