I'm Going To Tell You Why Interracial Marriage Is Not Only Bad For Your Relationship And Offspring, But Bad For Your Entire Family As Well (That Person From Another Race That You're Marrying Has No Genes In Common With You Or Anyone In Your Family And Therefore Has NO Vested Genetic Interest In Anyone In Your Family).
People of different races feel less empathy towards each other, that is a well proven fact though |

The principle of inclusive fitness provides the scientific explanation for why blood is thicker than water. But the principle doesn't just say that people will help family members more than strangers. It is much more precise: people will tend to give more help to those family members who share more genes with them. For example, if you're going to run into a burning building to save another, the principle of inclusive fitness suggests that risking your own life will be genetically worthwhile if you can save two siblings (each sharing about half, or 0.5, of their genes with you), four nephews or nieces (each sharing one-quarter, or 0.25, of their genes with you), or eight cousins (each sharing one-eighth, or 0.125, of their genes with you).
Hundreds of findings across the animal kingdom support this principle. Ground squirrels are more likely to risk their lives by giving a loud alarm signal to warn of a predator if doing so will save their brothers and sisters, as compared to their second cousins. White-fronted bee-eaters are more likely to share food with full siblings than with half siblings. And aid within human families tends to run along genetic lines as well. Of the inheritance money left in people's wills, 92.3 percent goes to family and only 7.7 percent to nonfamily. And of the money left to genetic relatives, 84 percent goes to those sharing 50 percent of the benefactor's genes, 14 percent to those sharing 25 percent, and less than 2 percent to those sharing 12.5 percent or fewer genes.
The power of shared genes shows up in bold relief if you compare the way parents treat children who are related to them by blood as compared to by marriage. In the classic fairytale, Cinderella's nasty stepmother treats her like a lowly servant, all the while showering rewards and affection on her two evil daughters. Sadly, the real world resembles the cruel fairytale. Parents are 5.5 times less likely to help pay college costs for stepchildren versus biological children. And while they are shut out of many rewards, stepchildren are often dealt more than their share of punishments. Children living with a stepparent are forty times more likely to suffer physical abuse than those living with two genetic parents, with much of the abuse coming from the stepparent. Even more shocking are the data on homicides. Although murders of small children are rare, children living with a stepparent are forty to one hundred times more likely to be killed! Is this because stepchildren live in poorer families, or because of some other confounding variable? No. Even for parents who have both biological children and stepchildren living with them in the same house (for whom all the possible confounding variables are equated), stepchildren are nine times more likely to be abused than biological children living under the same roof.
Nancy Segal, the twins researcher, wondered whether the principle of inclusive fitness would apply to the extreme case in which siblings share more than the usual number of common genes. To explore this question, she compared identical (or monozygotic) twins with fraternal (or dizygotic) twins. While both types of twins tend to be born into the same family at the same time, they differ in the proportion of genes they share. Fraternal twins share the usual brotherly 50 percent, while identical twins share 100 percent of their genes. Identical twins are in fact clones.
In her research, Segal repeatedly finds that identical twins have closer and more cooperative relationships than fraternal twins. Identical twins feel closer to one another's children than fraternal twins. And when a member of a pair of identical twins dies, the surviving twin feels a more intense and longer sense of mourning than that felt by the surviving member of a pair of fraternal twins.
In one study, Segal and her colleagues Scott Hershberger had twins play a prisoner's dilemma game. To be consistent with the economic rules of the game, the researchers gave the twins instructions designed to encourage self-interested play, explaining that each person's goal should be to win as much money for him - or herself as possible and not worry about what happens to the other player. Yet even when spurred to think about maximizing their own self-interest - rational economist style - the twins had a hard time defecting on one another. Instead, they spontaneously chose to cooperate much of the time.
The most interesting finding was the difference in cooperation between twins who shared half versus all of their genes. Compared to fraternal twins, identical twins were 27 percent more likely to cooperate. We're not suggesting that twins were making relatedness calculations in their head before they decided to cooperate. Identical twins simple feel more cooperative toward one another than fraternal twins, in the same way that most of us feel more willing to lend money to a sibling (who shares 50 percent of our genes) than to Cousin Myrtle (who shares only 12.5 percent).
The twin study shows not only that blood is thicker than water but that the blood of genetically closer kin is thicker than that of less closely related kin. Our preference for those who share our genes is not simply due to the fact that we have spent more time with our closer relatives. Even after being raised separately and then reunited, identical twins regularly become closer to one another than do reunited fraternal twins.
