We seen already what creating notion of races for humanity did, and what was the outcome of it...so it's easy, races belong to animals and vegetals, as afterall, almost every human is different to another, different heights, noses, eyes colours, hair colours etc...

race is something that will continue for a long time, as when your a child you identify with others who look like you & colour of attributes like skin/hair/eyes are some of the first things you learn to recognise in this respect.

I don't get the point of this.
Classifying things is only good for subjugation?
Things should only be classified differently based on utility?
Leprechauns are people too?

the world is a highly race based society and racism between races are seen all over the world i can mention lots of examples that some still exist. we classify people into races because we think that we are perfect as ourselves and that anyhting different is inferior . then we have the different ethics of each race which clashes with the other races religions. then we have your upbringing which effects the way you live which makes it easier to class people as a different race. so race is a big thing in society that effects us all but we my oponion is to respect other races as you respect your own and to break down boundaries between each culture and treat them as your brother/sister with respect

People need the whole race thing, it brings in competitiveness in some cases, although yeah it can be bad....

I'd say its Nature, but not necessarily limited to humans, as I have seen sibling rivalry in animals as well
Can animals be racist? Hm...
