10 +Blending into one race assumes uniform mixing across all populations, which is unlikely due to societal, cultural, and geographical barriers.
11 +Historical evidence shows that distinct ethnic groups have maintained separate identities for millennia despite some intermixing.
12 +High birth rates among certain populations mean some ethnic groups will likely persist as dominant demographics in specific regions.
13 +Explanation: The idea that humanity will blend into one homogenous race oversimplifies the reality of demographic trends. Different populations have maintained their distinct identities for centuries, even under conditions of migration and intermixing. For example, despite centuries of migration into Europe, distinct ethnicities like the Basques or Sami people still exist. Additionally, demographic trends show that fertility rates vary significantly across groups, meaning some populations grow faster than others. For instance, many African and Middle Eastern countries have much higher birth rates than Europe or East Asia, making a global "blending" implausible. Societies naturally form cultural and ethnic distinctions, even when migration occurs
