What happened to those British genes? They were stupid for thousands of years when other empires ruled? After all successful is intelligent and less successful is less intelligent. Please get it out of your head that the British were the only successful empire in all human history, and that it signifies some genetic superiority. >People who lack intelligence can do a lot better in their lives by asking the more talented to lead them and by working for the more talented. That's why the British Empire was so successful - leadership by the talented, energetic and productive of those who wanted a piece of the action too. >

At least chimps are unlikely to destroy all earth with nuclear weapons. And then, cockroaches may turn out to be the most "intelligent" species, because they survived. They had the "intelligence" to know to hide and procreate, while these stupid human beings worked on 1 child policy and birth control. The great cockroach empire will stretch far and wide...and the less intelligent Beetles will follow the intelligent cockroaches. >If intelligence wasn't related to DNA, there would be chimps inventing OFDM. They never do. They eat bananas, mate and fight. You can lead a chimp to water but you can't make it think>
