Its easy to prove.
Provide a source that backs your claim and I'll show its from Rushton or the Pioneer Fund.
I challenge you.
No, the
APA confirmed the racial IQ gap (it's been observed for
100 years to this
very day - again
this is psych 101), and they said that they don't know what causes it and that no evidence for environmental causes has been found. They say there is
"less support for a genetic interpretation", not that there ISN'T evidence... as there is obviously circumstantial evidence. Most
scientists will say that environment and
genetics are implicated. This is no different from the position of Rushton or anyone else in the field. It's quite obvious that both environment and
genetics play a role. One would have to be an idiot to think otherwise when there is no shred of evidence to suggest anything else. Your condemnations of "racism" in the works of prominent renowned
Jewish researchers just because they get funding from a private non-university source (with a questionable genesis) which allows them to conduct work that they wouldn't otherwise be able to obtain funding for, is misguided, and just as misinformed as your lack of knowledge about
brain size corresponding to intelligence.
We've already been threw the
overton window (the current social limits of which allow you to call me names like "racist" without any merit), and scientists in the field who say it's hard to further research for
fear of being accused of racism - precisely because of laypeople like you. Science isn't racist simply because you consider the results to be socially unpalatable yet it is this political correctness that is stifling and influencing researchers like Scarr who admitted in 1998 that "
My colleagues and I reported the data accurately and as fully as possible, and then tried to make the results palatable to environmentally committed colleagues. In retrospect, this was a mistake. The results of the transracial adoption study can be used to support either a genetic difference hypothesis or an environmental difference one". As we've seen in the
Lindsay Shepherd episode, there are views that can and cannot be held in higher academic institutions, for political reasons, and this applies to scientists and their research. Every academic, academic representative, scientist, and scientific organization risks being de-funded and
pilloried if they don't come to the
right conclusions irrespective of the actual
scientific data. Obtuse, naive, illiterate, or agenda-driven folks like you refuse to acknowledge this fact. You keep referring to Rushton, who is non-entity in this research, to obsfuscate the fact that the racial IQ gap exists and has since IQ tests were first administered to the present day, and every study from the
Adoption Studies to
studies done in other countries ("data by nine global regions, surveying 620 published studies from around the world, with a total of 813,778 tested individuals"), to military & police force tests, to
headstart programs, to
academic achievement, to
SAT scores has confirmed it. All in all, the results are from hundreds (if not thousands) of studies and tens of millions of people. You'll need more than a grade 4 attempt at logic to win the argument.
