I predict that in the future everyone will be one race.

(Aug 11 07, 16:45)I'll have to correct you on that, we already ARE one race... It's not like coloured people are Homo Coloratus and white people are Homo Candidus.
I guess you mean to say we all will look the same, because the Earth has become one giant genepool.. (wich I actually doubt)

the idea of equality is something biology and geography don't seem much interested in - it's a religious/social concept and something that depends on human law, not natural law. What is happening in fact is that the human species (which is believed to have started with a few similar beings - even the Bible agrees with this one) is diversifying itself not melting into a single trait.

I presume it's a language thing - but just to point out - in the common sense of the word, we aren't all one race at all - we're all from one 'species'.
It is naive to state that there are no differences between the different branches of the human tree. I don't think there are intractable, massive differences, as so often sold to us by the racist, but there are details to distinguish between us all.
Right now, pharmaceutical companies across the world are racing to develop racially-specific treatments to better serve their customers. For instance - in America there is already a drug called BiDil, which targets heart disease in African-Americans.
On a side note, I for one am horrified by the thought of a future, filled with many billion equally-shaded people - at least because I know that my ginger gene is recessive and my people will likely 'die out' over the next hundred or so years. From that singular standpoint - what a dull future we face.

what is yet left for study is the way cultural habits will determine biological traits. for example: 300 years ago every musician used his 10 fingers for the keyboard, and most musicians nowadays still have 10 fingers. Most of them
But in the future, kids sprouting from DJ families will only need 2 fingers to play 3 notes. that's how it goes.
