Almost everybody has a different line on where they would consider Whiteness to end. For example, I've seen some people say Turks aren't White, or that Northern Africans (because of Roman occupation and colonization) are. I'm pretty sure Nazi Germany believed Slavs were not White. I'm interested to know where YOU draw the line, because there is rarely a consensus reached, and I rarely if ever see this asked.

Just please don't start a flamewar in the comments, I don't wanna come back to this post and see a bunch of arguing. Keep it respectable.

Where did you find this?

You know, I really don’t know anymore. Kind of important for me to find out, honestly. It’s one of the last things in my book that I don’t have *truly* cited. It’s a PCA chart of the genetic distance between the subspecies (whites, jews, arabs) and ethnicities within *Homo europeansis*. Here’s a (very simplified) 2D [map for global genetics.](https://i.postimg.cc/Jrcn9Q3q/PCA-Global.png) Two dimensions can only show the delineation between *Homo europeansis*, *Homo africanis*, and *Homo asiatis*. *Homo americanis* and *Homo australis* clusters are “flattened” on top, but they also have species-level genetic distance markers. I have an animated gif of a 3D plot, but I can’t seem to get it to animate when uploaded.

What's the deal with Utah having it's own category? Is mormon a race?

They’re a pretty big genetic sub-group (and they’re insular, like the Amish), so the study probably looked into them separately.

Thing about the Amish is that they’re *really* insular. There’s a subpopulation in Pennsylvania who all have six (fully functional) fingers. Polydactyly is the *dominant* gene in humans, and since the Amish don’t often outbreed, once one family has it, eventually they all will. Where I live (different state), roughly 40 years ago, fully half the Amish in the area packed up and moved to Missouri. They *had* to, because they were running out of non-family members to marry and it was starting to give kids birth defects.

Weird that polydactyly is dominant.

In genetic mutations, *more* is dominant and *less* is recessive. You have three ligaments in your wrist for grip strength, and everyone with any Nordic ancestry does. It's reached gene fixation in the European population.

Most of the planet only has one ligament there.

Do amish not convert new people in?

They do, but it’s pretty rare.

The early church gathered all the pure-blooded descendants of Ephraim and fled into Utah.

It is only today that we are seeing a lot of the other tribes of Israel show up, so for nearly 200 years they were gathering almost exclusively blood-descendants of Ephraim.

Ephraim is a race. I believe that the Anglo-Saxons were heavily associated with Ephraim. Perhaps Ephraim found a home among them. I don't know.

That never happened. Ephraim, like all other Hebrews, would be genetically indistinguishable from Arabs and would look very different from all other European populations. The Saxons look like Europeans populations, but don't look like Arabs, therefore they aren't Hebrews.

Ephraimites are half Egyptian. Joseph married Egyptian royalty and Ephraim was his second-born son who inherited the blessings of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

You really should read the Bible.

I have read the Bible. Japheth is the father of the European tribes. Ephraim, Manasseh, Isaac, etc are Semitic patriarchs and have nothing to do with Japheth/Europeans.
