Re: Why Darwin’s Theory is being questioned?
How come all mutations known to date give either no change in intelligence or cause a clustering of mentally retarded person at an IQ of 50? If mutations were random and random in their affect one would expect to see a clustering of mutated persons with a higher than normal IQ as opposed to the mentally retarded.<O< font><?xml:namespace prefix = v ns = “urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml” /><v:shape id=_x0000_i1025 style=“WIDTH: 11.25pt; HEIGHT: 11.25pt” coordsize = “21600,21600” alt = “”> </v:shape><O:p</O:p
But what is the scientific relevance of such tests? Personally I think all measuring tools invented by scientist to measure data based on statisctics…(ie 100 as IQ being the mean intelligence among humans), are flawed because statistics are subjective tools!
Researchers are intelligent people, it is not in their personal interest to develop tools that would open the gate to measure high IQs among “abnormal” people…<v:shape id=_x0000_i1026 style=“WIDTH: 17.25pt; HEIGHT: 18pt” coordsize = “21600,21600” alt = “”> <v:imagedata src = “file:///C:\DOCUME~1\fred\LOCALS~1\Temp\msohtml1\02\clip_image002.gif” o:href = “http://www.paklinks.com/gs/images/smilies/biggrin.gif”></v:imagedata></v:shape>Look how proud are some people to refuse to be classified as descedant from apes, so imagine scientist reckoning that some genetically impaired people are more intelligent!!<v:shape id=_x0000_i1027 style=“WIDTH: 11.25pt; HEIGHT: 11.25pt” coordsize = “21600,21600” alt = “”> <v:imagedata src = “file:///C:\DOCUME~1\fred\LOCALS~1\Temp\msohtml1\02\clip_image003.gif” o:href = “http://www.paklinks.com/gs/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif”></v:imagedata></v:shape>…<O:p</O:p
