It is wrong to predicate it on a belief in genetic uniformity when clearly no such uniformity exists. There are statistical differences between human populations. These differences are by and large statistical in nature and not observable at the level of individuals. But they do exist and some of them involve mental and behavioral traits.<BR/><BR/>Do we deny equality to the elderly because their capacities are not the same as those who are younger? No. Equality is a moral imperative. It is not a scientific fact. We do not further the cause of equality by insisting on a nonexistent genetic uniformity. If anything, we jeopardize this moral imperative and hold it up to ridicule.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3734925856292601239.post-29266996715036593152007-11-04T00:28:00.000-04:002007-11-04T00:28:00.000-04:00The new Lyssenkism (a.k.a. anti-racism), as many i...The new Lyssenkism (a.k.a. anti-racism), as many ideologies before it, tries to kill any research that does not fit in its ideological mold. This state of mind is caused by an extreme view of the "Enlightement" message that considers all human beings as blank sheets. This state of mind denies what is "innate" (i.e. racial and gender differences on some traits). Our post-modern world would collapse if this paradigm was proved wrong, this is why the powers <I>en place</I> try to banish any "controversial" research.<BR/>Sorry again for my English that cannot express all that I want to say. Thank you for your great research.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
