>> You go from not knowing about any challenges to claiming there are none.

Did no such thing.

I made two declarative statements that are logically unrelated.

>> He did challenge the conclusions though.

Of course. He didn't like the conclusions. A lot of people didn't. So, to hell with the science! We see that routinely these days (see: Climate Change).

>> Bias in IQ tests


Of course, the obvious attack. One of many. "Oh, you can't represent intelligence with a number." Or, "There are language differences." Or, "When there are more than three kids in the family..."

These are typical arguments from academics who have to idea how to respect to the fact set.

The reality is that this incident fits perfectly the pattern of the Left, which routinely ridicules are argues with scientific findings it doesn't agree with. Even when the Left's argument is devoice of scientific basis.

Science is what it is. The compelling need for the Left to make everyone the same is laughable to thoughtful people.
