    Ireland was a country that was at war for many years because many of it's citizens were intolerant of another religion. Seems like that intolerance has been passed forward to you and morphed into extreme racism and a belief in eugenics.

    Most of your postings show that you think you know a lot about many subjects.

    I know you have some interest in genetics so I will give you the spill. Let me know what you think?

    FYI - In the beginning other groups were the slaves and sub saharan africans were the masters.

    All Homo sapiens originated in Africa. Since the beginning there was a slave/master relationship with the stronger being the master.

    Some of those who were slaves got up the courage to leave. (If you consider those who came to America or those that ventured West, it was usually not those that were in superior positions but those persecuted in some way that migrated.)

    These persecuted people when to Europe and Asia. They encountered different/harsh environments. Those with more adaptive skills survived. They passed on the adaptive genes of those who could survive in harsher environments.

    If you have ever seen one of those shows about people who live in Alaska - they have to start making plans in June to survive the winter.

    Skinny - Outside of Africa. Harsh environment. Those with adaptive skills survived to past on their genes to their children. These skills pertained to deferring immediate gratification and expanding ones planning horizon to (t+1)

    Those who stayed in Africa - sub saharan africans - did not have the opportunity to have their genes adapted to more challenging environments. They are more prone to immediate gratification and have a very short planning horizon.

    There is a substantial genetic difference between the genes of sub saharan africans and all other groups. That is why on any medical forms they ask if you are sub saharan african or other.

    The difference as a % might seem small but it amounts to millions of base pairs.

    The skinny - black Americans are genetically different from other groups. black Americans can run fast and jump but are not very good at planning.

    "fittest" "better adapted for the immediate, local environment"

    The biological concept of fitness is defined as reproductive success. In Darwinian terms the phrase is best understood as "Survival of the form that will leave the most copies of itself in successive generations."

    Similar to your line of thought, In Outliers, Gladwell describes 2 reasons why he believes Asians are better at math than anyone else in the world:
    Math tests and rice paddies

    They have descendants who worked extremely long hours in rice paddies (and many still do), so they absorbed important concepts like "tenacity" and "perseverance"
    They have a linguistic advantage, since Asian numbers are better organized than in European languages, and they are easier to say.

    I agree there are cultural differences that explain Asian's better math scores. Certainly Asian parents are more interested in how their children are going in school compared to Western parents, and they tend to push their children. There is also a positive view in society towards science and engineering, and mathematics in particular.
