Later studies found that his measurements were flawed. For the record, I studied under one of Gould’s students and have a deep respect for the man—but it’s a pretty powerful lesson demonstrating the importance of recognizing your biases in science.

I imagine if you give the average...Intelligence . <br /><br />I imagine if you give the average Swahili the conventional pattern of squares, triangles, circles and swirling patterns as a test, he is going to end up a moron.. <br />The conversation about IQ was absolutely dominated by progressives , especially Harvard progressives from the seventies on.<br />People like the genius evolutionist Stephen J Gould could prove that there was no such thing as genetic difference, we were all the same and equal, and this was enforceable if necessary. <br />It was staggering in that people at the top of their academic field of evolution and anthropology were so stupid they were apologists for militant feminism and everyone is the same and equal nonsense.<br />It had its roots in academics sucking black, feminism, afro, Islam, anything but white.<br />My cousin loftily told me in the 1980’s that all differences, intelligence, social and sexual were contrived conditioning, and that in the 2016 Olympic games, white women would run with white men and beat them, but not black people.<br />Yeah. And white men can’t jump, and can do astrophysics<br /> Stephen Franks recently noticed the research correlation between high conventional IQ countries and the standard of living.<br />He seemed to think it may be something to be embarrassed about. The progressives and social justice warriors would object. Gosh.<br />The remainers against Brexit exhibited an assumed superior intelligence.<br />Voters for Brexit, were old, villagers and small town, rural, uneducated, and ipso facto <b> low intelligence </b>.<br />Therefore these stupid people should not be allowed to vote, or maybe another referendum should be held said the gifted like Richard Dawkins . <br />Over here in God’s own, a well known blogger insisted that the people submitting against the @ Death with dignity / public assessment were just wrecking progress for the intelligent better society with their unsubstantiated church type responses. <br />The blogger reprinted some of these submissions in order that we might see how thick and invalid these people are.<br /> And yesterday the pompous little Michael Woodhouse referred to an Immigration commenter [ slow down Immigration ] <br /> as a redneck.<br />Redneck here, I think meaning stupid, and backward. Like Michael Woodhouse. <br />Of course they don’t have to concern themselves with what the others think.<br />Correct thinking and intelligence is everywhere, we even have to watch the libertarians. paul scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15675247055484136242noreply@blogger.com
