CB, they are 98.5% or thereabouts chimp. <Nothing wrong with Chinese DNA, nothing wrong with Chinese brains, either.> To say there's nothing wrong with it is a stretch. Okay, it's true that it's probably not a lot worse than other large pools of human DNA, but to say there's nothing wrong with it is silly.
Chinese brains are not very good either. The average IQ is not even 100. See "Why Asians Lag" lagriffedulion.f2s.com
There has been good progress over the last 30,000 years and 90,000 years since Adam and Eve left Africa [Adam leaving much later than Eve because previous Adams came to grief and died out whereas the 90,000 year ago Eve went on to produce all humans out of Africa]. There was good progress in Africa before that too.
Casual inspection of humans shows that while we still have a LOT of chimp DNA, we can, for the most part, and with some lower back pain, avoid dragging our knuckles. Wearing clothes helps conceal some obvious chimp tendencies too [hairy backs for example].
Women have been doing a reasonable job of choosing high end males, but they need assistance. Too much defective DNA is hidden and evolutionary processes are too random, slow and cruel. With gene chip arrays and in vitro fertilisation and screening, along with some genetic engineering, a very rapid improvement in Chinese DNA could be achieved.
It has taken 100,000 years to upgrade humans to the current pathetic level. In merely 30 years, the Lexus, Cessna Citation and cyberspace have been developed. A similar improvement in the rate of development of human DNA is overdue.
