Leading Geneticist: Human Intelligence is Slowly Declining

Would you be surprised to hear that the human race is slowly becoming dumber, and dumber? Despite our advancements over the last tens or even hundreds of years, some ‘experts’ believe that humans are losing cognitive capabilities and becoming more emotionally unstable. One Stanford University researcher and geneticist, Dr. Gerald Crabtree, believes that our intellectual decline as a race has much to do with adverse genetic mutations. But there is more to it than that.

This is not a surprise to anyone who read The Bell Curve.

One doesn't read a "Bell Curve" you dummy, a bell curve is the arc created by data points, and your's is at least two standard deviations below bright normal. Don't feel bad, half of all Americans are below average, and dull normals such as yourself are well represented by the fringe right on this message board.

SEE, this is PROOF of the decline of American intelligence.

The Bell Curve is a book.
[ame=http://www.amazon.com/Bell-Curve-Intelligence-Structure-Paperbacks/dp/0684824299]Bell Curve: Intelligence and Class Structure in American Life (A Free Press Paperbacks Book): Richard J. Herrnstein, Charles Murray: 9780684824291: Amazon.com: Books[/ame]

Since you are a shining example of the level of American intelligence, I'll explain it.

At the time of its publication, The Bell Curve was denounced as being racist. The premise was no such thing. What the book postulated was that we were breeding for stupidity. The more intelligent and successful, the fewer children were produced. The more unintelligent and unsuccessful were having the most children. In effect, breeding intelligence out of humanity. I'll bet you have brothers and sisters.

Human Intelligence: The Bell Curve

The Bell Curve, published in 1994, was written by Richard Herrnstein and Charles Murray as a work designed to explain, using empirical statistical analysis, the variations in intelligence in American Society, raise some warnings regarding the consequences of this intelligence gap, and propose national social policy with the goal of mitigating the worst of the consequences attributed to this intelligence gap. Many of the assertions put forth and conclusions reached by the authors are very controversial, ranging from the relationships between low measured intelligence and anti-social behavior, to the observed relationship between low African-American test scores (compared to whites and Asians) and genetic factors in intelligence abilities. The book was released and received with a large public response. In the first several months of its release, 400,000 copies of the book were sold around the world. Several thousand reviews and commentaries have been written in the short time since the book's publication.

400,000 copies of the book was sold. One of them just wasn't sold to you.

Human Intelligence Declining, Controversial New Study Suggests


The hypothesis is counterintuitive at first. After all, across the world the average IQ has increased dramatically over the last 100 years, a phenomenon known as the Flynn Effect. But most of that jump probably resulted from better prenatal care, better nutrition and reduced exposure to brain-stunting chemicals such as lead, Crabtree argues.

But just because humans have more mutations in their intelligence genes doesn't mean we are becoming less brainy as a species, said psychologist Thomas Hills of the University of Warwick, who was not involved in the study. Instead, removing the pressure for everyone to be a superb hunter or gatherer may have allowed us to evolve a more diverse population with different types of smarts, he said.

"You don't get Stephen Hawking 200,000 years ago. He just doesn't exist," Hills told LiveScience. "But now we have people of his intellectual capacity doing things and making insights that we would never have achieved in our environment of evolutionary adaptation."

Flynn effect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The Flynn effect is the substantial and long-sustained increase in intelligence test scores measured in many parts of the world from roughly 1930 to the present day. When intelligence quotient (IQ) tests are initially standardized using a sample of test-takers, by convention the average of the test results is set to 100 and their standard deviation is set to 15 or 16 IQ points. When IQ tests are revised, they are again standardized using a new sample of test-takers, usually born more recently than the first. Again, the average result is set to 100. However, when the new test subjects take the older tests, in almost every case their average scores are significantly above 100.

Test score increases have been continuous and approximately linear from the earliest years of testing to the present. For the Raven's Progressive Matrices test, subjects born over a 100 year period were compared in Des Moines, Iowa, and separately in Dumfries, Scotland. Improvements were remarkably consistent across the whole period, in both countries.[1] This effect of an apparent increase in IQ has also been observed in various other parts of the world, though the rates of increase vary.[2]

The Bell Curve is a book; the Bell Curve is a graph. If you were literate you would know the difference.

Nice try. Posting the necessary background now does not absolve you of the crime of posting an illiterate OP. Had you simply applied the rules of grammar, your initial post would have been clear yet still hackery, a commission of a fallacy of evidence, the appeal to authority.

You dumb twit.

You have no clue how to post in a current events forum.

You're an idiot who ads your own spin to a story.

Go away!!
