DNA test may reveal your ancestry,
But there is no DNA test for character.
IQ may reveal deficit in logical aptitude,
There’s no IQ test for excellence or genius.

If bloodline dictated destiny,
We’d still be dangling from trees.
Not that we’ve done much better,
But at least there is possibility.

In the end we are all monkeys,
We all come from the jungle.
Question is, have we conquered
the jungle that lurks in our heart,
have we risen yet above the animal!

Ancestry is garbage, IQ is useless,
Living humans don’t rely on such nonsense.
Heart, brain, backbone, these make who we are,
Everything else is mythology of the savages.

Ancestral roots count for nothing,
modern humans are identified by behavior.
In the end, all roots lead to Africa –
transcending roots we lay the human culture.

Beyond markers of immediate biological family,
DNA ancestry tests are practically meaningless.
There is no genetic test for ethnicity –
science declares sanctions on racism, not validation.

There is no White DNA, Black DNA.
There is no Muslim DNA, Jewish DNA.
There is no Aryan DNA, Dravidian DNA.
We’re made of stuff of the stars,
why do you still rot in the jungle gutter!

If you are seeking validation
for your bigotry and prejudice,
all we scientists can offer you are
directions to the nearest psychiatrist.
