Race Difference in IQ Are Genetic

[Suicide Boy]

Despite all the bullshitting and waffling people do about certain races being "underprivileged," and blaming said race's lower IQ scores on that, science has determined that some races are, on average, stupider than others. Yes, this an old article, but it's the first I've seen of it.

http://www.news-medical.net/news/2005/04/26/9530.aspx

Last time I saw a graph about this, it showed that Asians are the smartest by a small margin, Caucasians come second, Latinos are third, and Africans are quite far down on the bottom of the graph.

Now, apparently this is "controversial" to speak of, even though most people seem to have no problem with the (proven to be a myth) "black dicks are the biggest" nonsense, nor with the (probably true) idea that blacks are larger, stronger, and more coordinated on average.

What does all this mean?

To me, it's simple: Different branches of homo sapiens have lived in very different parts of the world for over 150,000 years, and a wee bit of divergence (evolution apart from members of the same species) occurred during that period, based primarily on the climate, terrain, flora and fauna.

It's also notable that Africa was where human beings originated. In my incredibly controversial opinion, Africans are indeed closer to our primate roots than any of the other races; that is to say, they're closer to the original homo sapiens than anyone else. They've evolved the least, even if only by an infinitesimal margin. They're still in the same place humanity began, after all.

Probably sounds insulting, but then it also means they're the "real" "master race."

Opinions?

Asians are the closest thing we have to mermaids.

So mermaids tend to open dry cleaning establishments and ruin their children's lives urging them to become doctors or concert violinists?

Asians are smart because their parents make them study 18 hours a day.
The only huge black penises I've seen have been in porn pics, and they're usually fake.
They may be more athletic, but that comes from years of having to run through the jungle, chasing their dinner.
As for being close to the original primate, you couldn't be more correct. Scientific studies have proven they have a thicker skill and jaw than the more evolved races and are in fact, the closest living relative of the caveman.

That's what I believe, and I'm certainly no racist (I know some of you actually are, but for me it's just another way to bullshit around at UR). Of course, politically correct persons would without exception accuse me of being a bigot for having such opinions.

It simply seems like a logical conclusion, from a scientific perspective. You can't argue with legitimate science. Skin pigmentation is not the only physical, mental or behavioral difference between races, and refusing to acknowledge this is a lot like refusing to believe in evolution because you're a Christian, despite thousands and thousands of scientists whose work supports the theory of evolution.

And is it really a coincidence that 1/2 to 3/4 of every football and basketball team in the U.S. is comprised of black people, even though they're only 13% of the population? Or that, proportionally speaking, blacks commit far more crime than any other racial group?

Racial differences are an annoying taboo that bear further examination, even if purely for curiosity's sake.

Amen to that!

I am not trying to defend or glorify my race or some silly thing like that but the study did look at anatomical and genetic factors as to why Asians as a whole have the kind of IQ that was measured.

Also,
I never really read a legitimate scientific article that used "more evolve" but maybe you have. I was never taught that evolution was a process of building a perfect or superior species, but that's my liberal education speaking.

Oh btw, Google up Ashkenazi Jews. I wanna see what some members of this forum think.

Of course not. Can you imagine the monstrous, career-destroying backlash a scientist would suffer for even considering such a study? There is no article because there can be no article.

Direct scientific evidence isn't required to make these kinds of guesses, though. Scientists generally agree that humanity (homo sapiens, specifically) originated in Africa, and in the very beginning, we were racially very similar.

How do you propose that there are now so many sizable and very distinct groups of human beings on the planet? There are huge countries full of large, strong, pitch-black people with large lips and thin, but tightly coiled black hair; small, yellow people, agile and intelligent, with almond eyes and coarse, straight, thick black hair; fair-skinned people (larger than all but blacks) with many different hair and eye colors, the widest range of physical features, and average size and strength; etc., etc.

It didn't happen by magic, and it's not primarily selective breeding, either. The same original group of the first homo sapiens, starting in Africa, split into multiple groups, which migrated around the world over the course of 30,000-50,000 years. Once settled in these very different locations and situations, the gene pools of the different groups (very, very slowly) changed -- and they did so apart from all the other groups.

Asians in Asia, Africans (still) in Africa, Caucasians in cold, darker, more mountainous areas, Middle Easterners in the desert and similar, Native Americans in the Americas (of course), and so on and so forth.

IT IS SCIENTIFIC FACT (okay, strong theory, not fact) that Native Americans and Eskimos traveled to the Americas on a land bridge from Asia thousands of years ago. And now, you can see the resemblance, but they are still COMPLETELY separate racial groups.

You ever seen an American Indian, full blooded? You can fit one Chinese man in each of his pantlegs, and they don't call them "redskins" for nothing. And that happened in far less than 150,000 years.

Divergent evolution, in my opinion. If that means selective mating habits also had something to do with it, so be it, but I'll bet you those habits arose naturally from the specific environment and location that a group has lived in for thousands of years.

You just said that you believe there are difference in IQ per race. You also stated blacks are more primitive. How can you say you're not racist?

[Equal Hater]

I have a couple questions in regards of this scientific affirmation:

What's the situation of the hundreds of thousand Peruvian citizens of Asian origin? They are obviously "Latinos" and also obviously "Asian", so which idiot gene supersedes the other?

The term "Latino" applies to everyone that speaks a language that derives from Latin. Catalan, French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian and Spanish speaking people should correctly be considered Latinos, and even most European and English speaking cultures have been "influenced" (and some might read infested) by Latin.

...So, which Latinos this study is referring to and under which parameters? By Latino he means the dumb ass Mexican orange pickers we have in Florida, or the Guatemalans still living in jungles?

And last but not least, I would like a more detailed explanation on how they define Caucasians.

There are many definition, but it all comes down to that you believe one race is superior to the other. So saying that one race is smarter than the other, or that one race is primitive, or that that one race is more athletic.... is all racism.

If the truth makes me a racist,then so be it.

If someone says something negative towards my race, it's racism.

If someone says something positive towards my race, It's the truth.
