Kermit, which sources are biased? And what kind of bias? The 'Black' sources want to show that 'Blacks' are less intelligent? The Jewish sources want to show that Jews are more intelligent? The 'White' sources want to show they're intermediate? Explain.
Fundamentally flawed how? This question has come up several times since I joined the board and I've always said I have an open mind and have asked for info going against the mainstream view that IQ and intelligence (as we all understand it) are linked, and that groups divided on ethnic/racial lines, score differently on IQ tests. So HOW fundamentally flawed, and WHERE are your sources? Blagsta only gives stuff discrediting 'TBC' which is another matter altogether on which I agree with him.The Wall Street Journal article on IQ and 'race' issues. Please somebody say what they disagree with, explain why, and if possible (I don't think it is), provide links to similarly respected intelligence specialists from likewise respected uni's to support. If not accept that you are prejudiced about the matter, but be aware there's lots of people prejudiced about these issues, and more of them are motivated by hate rather than love, and if all you have to argue with them is your own prejudices, sheer numbers will dictate that you lose. Get a grip on the issue or shutup. I raised IQ and running when challenged to explain how the BNP gained from the insanity of denying racial differences, and the taboo on discussing the clear differences. IQ is one. West-African sprinters and East African middle and long-distance are others. Nobody took issue with the last two differences. All three are consistently shown by the results. No argument. No racism.
Stop changing the terms of the debate you slippery little fucker. You have consistently been posting a view that you believe that there is a genetic basis to the difference in IQ results between races and that this proves that some "races" are more intelligent than others. Then when challenged on this, you deny that you actually said it!
At least have the balls to stand by your opinions, no matter how obnoxious they are.
Stop trying to change the terms of the debate when caught out. You were saying that some "races" are more intelligent than others, stop trying to wiggle out of that.
Who the fuck is L R Andrews? If that's the best source you can come up with...
Blagsta this is the article by 52 academics which the IQ argument you and I have been having is based on. It was apparent that you didn't read the Block article you linked to (for no apparent reason), but I assumed you'd read this one since you've argued with it so often. It's not by L.R. Andrews. WHAT in the article do you disagree with, and on WHAT basis, and on WHOSE research are you basing your argument? I've asked it plenty of times but you do not answer. I've linked to respected specialists at top universities to show why I believe the mainstream view, why don't you explain why you don't accept it? It's prejudice only, isn't it? I think your motivation is probably anti-racist and brotherly love sentiments, good for you, but you've nothing to fear by getting informed about this issue. I still love everyone. Even you.
The public need to know.
You haven't actually linked to any respectable academics that support your view that their is a genetic basis to the variation in IQ test results between "races". Whereas I have linked to sources that discredit your view.
You're a cunt
I haven't claimed a genetic basis for variation in IQ test results between 'races' - QUOTE ME! And I've ONLY linked to respected academics. On the other hand YOU HAVE linked to an intelligence specialist who in the article accepts a heredity factor in IQ. You didn't know that 'cos you didn't read beyond the headline, and don't know what you're talking about - that's why you haven't answered the only significant question in this debate - WHAT do you disagree with in the W.S.J. article, and WHY, and WHO backs you up. My position is very clear, I think IQ and intelligence are linked, and I think groups drawn on ethnic/racial lines consistently score differently on IQ tests. That's correct isn't it? I've offered supporting links, but you haven't offered opposing evidence even tho' you claimed to have hundreds of examples.
Likely last post in thread unless you manage to offer something other than prejudice.
This is a very clear statement of your views. You believe that black people are less intelligent. A view which no mainstream academic has. It is a minority racist view, based on a deliberate and wilful misinterpretation of science. Instead of saying that black people seem to do less well on IQ tests, which could be interpreted in many ways, the most likely being that IQ tests are very culturally and socially biased given that their is no real genetic differences between races (the truth), you say that "black are less intellligent" (a racist lie). You don't even bother to look at what IQ tests actualy measure and what we actually mean by "intelligence". You leap straight to a racist conclusion. So forgive me for thinking that you're a racistbut its the only conclusion that can be drawn.
Really the last post 'cos I've been very generous with my time and goodwill. Answer the question or Adios.
Now fuck off.
One of you keeps posting the same thing over and over again and the other just appears to be a foul mouthed abusive yob.:rolleyes:
I agree probably not the greatest 1st post, just annoyed that id gone through 6 pages of 2 people swearign and insulting each other :cool:
Swearing's the only language they understand! Politeness is too good for them!
Though Ive always believed that you do come off better in an argument if you can be polite and control your emotions.
Not that I can all the time
