Was Greece the birthplace of humanity?

Personally, I'd apply 'racist' to derogatory comments regarding somebody's country or region of origin or faith where that is largely linked to the former.  When people talk about Muslims, for instance, mostly this refers to Muslims from the Middle East and tends to be another way of saying 'Arabs'. For instance, Mohammad Ali was rarely a target of such comments. I think that Indians and Pakistanis can definitely be racist towards the other. And obviously where someone's appearance is different because of their geographical origins, derogatory comments concerning those differences are racist.

Fair enough. I think of them more as ignorant, petty and small minded.
