Enjoy isn’t exactly the right word, but I will say I’ve learned a lot about genetics from the informative posts of those bothering to argue with this moron.
I’ve been really trying to muster up as much compassion as I can, but the ‘‘all felons should be executed’’ thing just makes it really hard to view NDD as anything other than a monster. I’m really just in awe of how inhuman some humans can be.
I really do not think all felons should be executed. I was responding tongue in cheek to this preposterous thread:
“All religious people should be executed”
I do favor more and longer prison sentences under harsher conditions. I am convinced that this is the only practical means of reducing the crime rate. Since 1980 the prison population has tripled. The crime rate has declined by one third.
In addition I think we should eliminate AFDC, and institute free abortion on demand.
The high cost of incarceration can be reduced by the thorough exploitation of prison labor. There must be work that is too painful and dangerous for free labor to perform. Convicts should be forced to do this work in order to pay their debts to society.
The reason it does not say anything about genetics is because for many this remains a forbidden topic. I have read studies of the persistent race gap in academic performance and mental aptitude test scores. Every explanation but the genetic explanation will be discussed and discarded as insufficient. The conclusion will be, “We really do not why the race gap continues.”
Actually, they do know. Unfortunately, they lack the intellectual integrity to reveal what they know.
You must agree that blacks are not treated as well in this society as whites. How could they be expected to perform as well as whites, even assuming a reasonable “performance” metric exists?
Only in your mind. You’ve been provided with multiple bits of scientific literature to the contrary, inckuding a very recent and very comprehensive review that gives specific consideration to all your favorites. Other explanantions have much more support than your pre-selected explanation. Just because you did not read or understand what you’ve been provided doesn’t mean it does not exist.
It just means that it refutes your racist preferences.
It is very amusing to see NDD use the word integrity as we consider he ignores all the evidences in front of him and simply avoids acknowledgement of his self-contradictions.
Of course it is clear to everyone that his ideas have no logic in them. It makes no sense as a hypothesis to claim that there is a black genetic race, and that it is solely these genetics that explain whatever he does not like about black americans, when we see from every charting of population genetics that first sub saharan africans are most genetically diverse and they do not cluster together coherently, and that his black americans he so hates are themselves of significant asian and european descent.
And as we have seen, when it is not about black people, he readily goes to the cultural and enviornmental explanation as we all read earlier in this very thread.
Funny to then claim integrety. All this is only about his sad beliefs that he is not intelligent enough to update. I am sure he could find cultural reasons to continue to despise black americans.
Ah, the old “they’d admit I’m right if only they weren’t so dishonest” schtick, with a side of “there would be evidence proving me right if only weren’t suppressing it”. You’ve strayed into full-on CT-land, my friend. Turn back while you still can!
We know black* individuals can outperform white individuals at every conceivable thing, and vice versa, once the playing field is leveled. So, it can’t be on the individual level.
Therefore, it’s not genetic; ergo you’re an ignorant, close-minded racist. Possibly a sociopath or an agent from the Matrix. Hard to tell over the Internet.
Which fallacy, in your opinion – err, I mean assertion – did I use now?
*What the hell is your definition of a black race anyway? How are you defining/quantifying it? Are you just basing it off melanin levels, or some sort of ray-cist-dar gun?
Nice try, but that’s not the only thing Rushton says.
Rushton also correlates it with having multiple sexual partners and the ability to satisfy multiple sexual partners.
Anyway, since you insisted that we shouldn’t regard Rushton as a quack after he was disciplined by his boss for going to a local mall and pestering people with such questions as “How big is your penis when erect”, “how many sexual partners have you had in the past five years” and “how far can you ejaculate”?
So, since you defend such practices.
A)How large is your penis when erect?
B)How many female sexual partners have you had in the last five years?
C)How far can you ejaculate?
The answers will certainly help us determine whether Rushton was right about the anatomical inferiorities of white men.
Don’t forget that if one of “his” sources publishes something that disagrees with him, they’re merely bowing under pressure to throw a bone to political correctness. They really agree with him deep down; they’re just not allowed to say so publicly.
Responding more seriously to this penis idea of Rushton, is it not itself inherently illogical in the face of the evolution humans?
First, it appears that humans have more prominent sexual characteristics than the chimpanzees, and the penis of humans is larger than any other primates penis by proportion or by body size or absolutely. It makes no sense to assert a hypothesis of a trade off between brain and penis size or intelligence and penis size when the demonstrated evolution shows both penis size and brain size or intelligence increased at the same time in humanity.
It has no evolutionary logic to support it, and it is a Esope’s fable type story in the face of what the evolutionary evidence would say. What real genetic and evolutionary logic would there be that intelligence and penis both increased over evolution until what only the moment that the white people came along? Does this show any sense?
But this is the argument style of the racists now as they stare in the face of the science.
This isn’t a battle. This is more like playing chess against a chicken. I’m mainly just interested in what new demented thing he’s going to come up with.
