Re: What Would David Say About This Remark?

Genetics doesn't logically play a large part, if any part at all.

That's a bold claim given what we know and don't know.

What do you mean by bold statement? Did you not read what I posted about the genetics of intelligence?

From an evolutionary standpoint, it makes little sense that race and intelligence are strongly linked. The various races of the world began to diverge about 100,000 years ago in waves of immigration from Africa, long after humans evolved their large brains, which took millions of years of evolution. So the races of the world are a relatively new phenomenon, whereas, human intelligence is much more ancient. (DNA analysis, further, clearly shows that the greatest genetic variation exists, not between races, but within races.)
