as the title says is there a difference between these four terms or do they all mean the same thing I read a post by HPHoodedCobra that Indians and Arabs are 2 diffrent species if so how many Species of Humans are there? :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

There are 3 different races in humans, Asians, Whites and Blacks. Jews are a separate race. They are not humans.

The rest are subraces and/or a mix of the different races with such mixes having accumulated over thousands of years. Which is why, for example, the Indian people or Arabs cannot be considered to be belonging to either of the above mentioned races. Also, in India for example, you will notice that there a a lot of "groups" (for the lack of a proper word) of people with different sort of blood which is quite obvious. Down south you will notice a lot of people with dominant black genes, meanwhile up north you might notice someone with lighter skin, maybe even some "white" features. However these are not pure white or black race. Hence they are considered different altogether. Also in northeast India, people look asian, completely asian. So technically, even grouping together "Indians" as an ethnicity, race, subrace, species whatever, would be incorrect. Because people here have different genetic makeups and not the whole Indian population can be considered one group of people.

The terms you mentioned are used interchangeably quite often apart from tribe. I don't think anyone would use the word tribe to describe a race. Tribe could maybe refer to a subrace of people but I doubt anyone would use tribe to describe a race.
 
Species is above Race/Subspecies/Ethnicity -- the latter are used interchangeably

Two individuals of different species can't procreate. If they're of the same species they can, even if mixing different races comes with problems. That's the rule of thumb.

The word 'Tribe' has a broad meaning depending on the context. For example, it is an euphemism for 'kikes' when you need to avoid some alphabet algorithm.

Basically a species is divided into races which are divided into ethnicities. Example a race of humas are the whites. There could be ethnic Poles or Germans or Bulgarians. The genetics are still a history of race I would say. Sometimes race is referred to as species. It's a matter of etymology, or it could be used in a metaphorical way to emphasize on the differences maybe :D
Tribes are usually made of the same ethnicity or at least race, but not always. Tribes are more like a society form of organizing.
 
I agree with EasternFireLion666.

Societies used to be divided in different layers. We had the family unit, than the clan which was formed by families that share common ancestors. I'd say tribes were formed of different clans, and different tribes would then form a nation.

Now, we could draw an equivalent. Family would still be family. Clan can be extended family but, in term of the corrupted modern society the next rung in the pyramid would actually be the neighbourhood. From neighbourhood to township, from township to province/county, from that to region, and further to nation. Different nations of the same race make up the race, and so on.

It's about consciousness and hierarchy. Forming a unity like family, makes the small collective consciousness. Workings that affect the family will be directed at its consciousness, and the power of the family consciousness will the product of every members power.

You can also make a comparison to military hierarchies from the smallest unit to the largest. This is a positive aspect of Saturn, providing structure and a framework to everything based on certain rules/attributes that are shared at a certain level.
