[QUOTE="Star*, post: 159096, member: 4964"] Color has NOTHING to do with it - really. I was adopted 43 years ago and until my 30s i was CERTAIN they were BOTH Martians. I was raised in a martian household, I was taught martian ways, I was schooled in martian culture - and even though I'm not biologically a Martian - I'm a good and decent person. After 43 years - when you read something like this - you have to wonder - BUT IF MY FAMILY HAD KEPT ME - would I be who I am? Probably not. So I don't think I missed out on my "ethnic" heritage - I just got a new one - and live like a Martian. You can substitute the word MARTIAN for any race, creedo, or ethninticity you care to. But I'll ALWAYS be a Martain because I was raised Martian. For anyone wondering - had I been raised by Earthlings - i would have become and Earthling - But I am just - who I am raised by Martians. (They think they have me fooled) ha! [/QUOTE]
