No, science has not taught us that. Political correctness has taught us that: <Science has taught us that any concept of human breeds is a figment of our imaginations as all humans genes are remarkable similar. Much less variation than you see in, say, apes. > It is as plain as the nose on your face that humans do have breeds. As any dog breeder or horse breeder knows, the overall gene pool for horses or dogs might each be a big muddle, but that doesn't mean there are not breeds within, with superior characteristics for various things. For example, a draught horse is good for pulling ploughs but a race horse is not. But the race horse is great for winning races. Some dog breeds are good for one thing while others are good for other things. To see the effect in humans, stand on the train station in Milan and see how tall people are. Then go to Schiphol airport and see how tall they are. Those are different breeds. Go to Norway and see what colour their hair is. Then go to Beijing. Guess which are blond and which are black. Genes vary in a vast array. Science does not in the slightest say that all humans are the same everywhere, whether averaged or however measured. Anyway, there's no news in this, so I'm dropping it. Racism is a great industry, with entitlement to anger for everyone, and moral superiority and a giggle for those holding the Official Mug of Non-Racism. Meanwhile, eugenics, another badly maligned wonderful thing [justly so when governments get into the business], is alive and well with women mercilessly and relentlessly eliminating all sorts of males from the gene pool. So active are they in their eugenics programmes that the Catholic church has asked them to be less particular and to get with the programme when they are young, get married and bear loads of children, even if the bloke isn't quite up to specifications. The Flynn Effect is not a matter of luck. Mqurice
