I present the group with a ponderable. Give it some serious thought.
It is an undeniable fact that human evolution produced general, broad,
distinct, and obvious differences in the people of the different
races - -
different coloring, different hair, different looks, different religions,
different cultures/religions, different social structures, different
physical abilities, on and on and on . . . . . . Even the most rabid and
overtolerant socialists and one-worlders will agree to these things.
Why then is it such a surprising revelation when someone does a serious
study of racial abilities, histories, and accomplishments and states that
one or more races are inferior, or superior, in the realm of general
intelligence? How can they deny that the human mind has probably
undergone
evolutionary changes and not all in the same direction ?
In my humble opinion it is the greatest example, the epitome, of blind
denial in the face of the facts of history.
What do you think?

Humanity has made absolutely vast advances in technology,,,because
what does not work fails instantly and bankrupts its host of
idiots.... so we see accumulating advance in the hard sciences and
production etc.
not so with social notions, driven by all sorts of vested interests
for a wide range of reasons. a bogus social notion goes on unchecked
because failure of the view is not immediate in most cases, or can be
rationalized etc.. rationalizing error of course is fatal over time.
Why dont we test so that error is harder to hide?
it has always amazed me in the engineering business to see no testing
of engineers before hiring them.. a lot of really dull people get
hired who then fail to perform,, when a test at the front end could
easily have avoided that, we dont test apparently because that
gets in the way of our insane rationalizations... rationalizations
that most of us live by...and on which many types of businesses and
life styles are built.... a close look, would destroy those
industries, jobs or life styles. so we dont look closely.... we
rely on jabber, claims, bluster,, anything but the cold hard facts.
for instance does this engineer know what the gas laws are? yes or
no. most dont. they screw things up.
its not working...other nations test...and are currently out
performing us in many areas.
a base line cause. the universe is entropic in naure, winding down
in energy, cooling off etc. all systems in this universe do this,
caused by various forms of friction.
in human systems and cultures there is friction...effort used to get
along etc.... as such a system bloats, the friction exceeds production
and collapse ensues.
an example of how bloat works...say you are married to one woman and
want to buy new drapes... you only have one person to negotiate with
and please... if you had 10 women to please the drapery decision would
take at least 10x the effort.... the small things wouldnt even be
worth doing in that case...
Insanity also runs rampant in such social situations,,,thats because
we tend to justify our errors... those of course then increase
exponentially... once the error rate gets much past 51% self
destruction is assured.
is there a cure? no... not from human efforts at least.
Mother nature has a cure though... these species self destruct, then
after a time mother nature reboots the survivors from the bottom up.

Thanks for the serious reply, Phil. As an engineer I appreciate it.
You've covered an immense territory there ! I do not have the time right
now write a proper reply to you. But, I will soon.
