Just because you're educated in chemistry doesn't mean you know theology. Just because you're educated in cosmology doesn't mean you know anything about music. Just because you're a neuroscientist doesn't mean you know anything about philosophy, morals, genetics, or anything related to the issue at hand. He talks about being educated but he's boxed into his boxed himself willingly into his prison of political correctness.

Racists are the ones who are brain washed in a sense because they're to stupid to understand their own xenophobia is the result of the inherent defense mechanisms of man coupled with some conditioning. I believe racism is wrong not because it is politically correct to think so, but because I understand how it comes about. And don't fucking reduce it to a matter of opinion because it implies you could support your claims with rational arguments.
