And yes! that is a perfectly reasonable answer. Indeed, suspension of judgement is the appropriate position to take in the absence of any evidence for an explanation.
What you're doing (although I concede you might not realise it) is a lot like when Christians challenge atheists to explain how the universe began if God didn't do it.
I don't know how or why the universe began, but I don't need an explanation in order to justify my disbelief in yours.
Likewise I don't have a 300-page thesis which perfectly explains every strand of demographic variance across races, but that doesn't commit me to believing any one particular explanation for it whatsoever.
I'm happy to take the theories as they come and judge them on their merits.
You offer the explanation that this variance is due to discrimination? Well, fine. Show me some evidence of discrimination.
