In the < two minutes it took you to respond perhaps you should have read:


The authors believe that average IQ difference between nations are due to both genetic and environmental factors. They also believe that low GDP can cause low IQ, just as low IQ can cause low GDP.

None of this, or any of your points, have anything to do with the original facts you called stupid or the matter at hand, genetic diversity and potential. Go away troll....

You need proof that Africa holds more genetic diversity than America? You need proof that more genetic diversity holds more evolutionary potential? I already posted that information, TWICE.

You are the only one talking about IQ, it started with your "facts are stupid" observation, it was not ever part of the discussion.

I already asked you, point blank in fact, to explain yourself here. I knew you'd try to dodge it:


Please explain to this forum how education will change your IQ. I would like you to address this point now, please don't dodge it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IQ

Environmental factors play a role in determining IQ. Proper childhood nutrition appears critical for cognitive development; malnutrition can lower IQ. Other research indicates environmental factors such as prenatal exposure to toxins, duration of breastfeeding, and micronutrient deficiency can affect IQ.

It is well known that it is possible to increase one's IQ score by training, for example by regularly playing puzzle games, or strategy games like Chess. Musical training in childhood also increases IQ.[19] Recent studies have shown that training in using one's working memory may increase IQ.[20]


Several factors can lead to significant cognitive impairment, particularly if they occur during pregnancy and childhood when the brain is growing and the blood-brain barrier is less effective.

North Korea and China have relatively low GDPs, yet their IQs are fairly high.

Also, I told you to explain yourself in my other post. I'm not letting this one slide.

Does Heritability or the Environment Influence IQ More?


The investigation into the influencing factors on IQ has led to one of the most controversial topics in intelligence: the question of whether heritability or the environment affects intelligence. Currently, there is evidence to support both the presence of genetic and environmental influences on intelligence. This dual evidence, however, leads to the question of which factor, heritability or the environment, is a greater influence on intelligence. To discover this, psychologists must learn the extent to which each factor affects intelligence. Ultimately, while studies indicate that both heritability and the environment play a role in the formation of intelligence, conflicting studies and ideas render it nearly impossible to discover the extent to which each factor influences intelligence.

Your questions were answered before you stumbled into this post and declared said (twice posted) facts "stupid". It is not my fault your comprehension levels are apparently low.

My point, from the beginning, was that there is more genetic diversity, and therefore more potential, in Africa. What fucking part of that didn't you understand?

I didn't claim anything. I pointed out the FACT that the greatest genetic diversity, and greatest evolutionary potential, is in Africa.

Sorry your ignorance is annoying, BTW I waited until you stooped, for the 2nd time, to a personal level before I stopped holding my tongue.

YOU came into this thread stating my comments were stupid, not knowing they were in fact true, who looks like the moron?

That's a factual comment.

How many whites were captured, sold as slaves, and lynched?

Yeah.... KINDA a little bit of difference in history there

how many blacks still living have been affected by this? also, how many black people did, and still do, enslave/hang/discriminate against their own? go shove that up your righteous ignorant ass.

I'll give you an example....if you invite someone into your home and they steal something. They would be considered the N word.

I would consider them a thief.

O/P go find the classiest, most educated, "no so bottom of the barrel" African American and call them a n***** to their face. If you get away with only appearing extremely ignorant consider yourself lucky.

nah a thief is too good. A thief can be someone that robs a bank or something like that. But to steal from someone you know a friend even who invites you into there home is a different type of POS human being.


you seem to be a different type POS human being

Your comments were stupid. This is a thread about the "N" word. Read the title.

Maybe in a thread about NASCAR you can preach on about the diversity of the Galapagos ecosystem.

Facts are stupid again, FTW. :cookie:

I lived in South Carolina at one point, haven't changed my profile since I moved back home to the North. Go fast, turn left, not for me. Nice ASSumptions on your part, and what insight did you hope to gain by checking my location? LMAO

I addressed the O/P subject matter, this plays into that issue. If people had a better understanding of genetics, especially their own, there would be far less prejudice based on racial "differences".


There is however, no hope for you.

That's a stupid comment.

http://www.sciencedaily.com/re...99/01/990125073157.htm

Genetic diversity in Africa is extremely high, even between closely related or located groups and much higher than diversity in other human populations.

http://www.umich.edu/news/inde...ses/2005/Oct05/r101805

The genetic diversity of populations was found to be greatest in Africa and least in the Americas.
