by David Sims LET ME INDULGE in a bit of math to show how a normal distribution can arise from biological inheritance. Suppose that there are ten locations on the human DNA that pertain to intelligence. I don’t know how many such locations actually exist, but for the purpose of illustration, let’s…

A new study shows that a diabetes drug helps to regrow brain cells in humans. IT’S NOT JUST YOU. People really are getting dumber, according to a new study. Research published online in the journal Intelligence on Thursday claims the IQ of people in Western nations has fallen by an average…

Intelligence, strength, and race by David Sims FOR HUMANS, greater strength and greater intelligence (and greater dexterity) stay gold throughout a very wide range of environments. It would be difficult to contrive an environment in which weaker men are more likely to survive than stronger men,…

A new study in the journal Intelligence indicates that viewers can, on average, sort the intelligent from the unintelligent merely by seeing individuals’ faces. Since both intelligence and character are largely heritable, it is not at all surprising that we can sense such traits by noting,…

PREDICTING 9% of educational achievement directly from DNA — and DNA alone — is quite good; a great achievement, in fact, almost quintupling the previous figure. Remember, it is established science that educational achievement is 60% heritable — but predicting it directly from…

by David Sims THE QUESTION was asked: “Is there a belief that revolves around the idea that life will continue to evolve until the entire universe is a sentient being?” Yes. It’s called Cosmotheism, whose most famous proponent, as far as I know, was Dr. William L. Pierce, who is chiefly…

A failed branch of humanity with foreign DNA. HAVING AN I.Q. number similar to the Fahrenheit temperature on a pleasant summer day is going to have massive societal consequences. This obvious statement has been largely ignored by courts, governments and do-gooders for the past fifty years, with…

THIS ARTICLE will lay out the basic case for “hereditarianism” or the view that genes are an important cause of racial IQ differences. At this point, you may already be thinking something like “no reputable scientist would ever think this!”, “Race doesn’t even exist!”, “IQ tests…

by David Sims NEIL DEGRASSE TYSON might be as smart as his reputation makes him seem. He’s “Black,” or, rather, he is an American mulatto, as you have no doubt noticed, and his race has an IQ distribution with a mean that is downwardly offset from the mean of the White race’s IQ distribution by about…

“Differently Intelligent children are just as good as any other children. The failure to appreciate this is merely a form of intellectual racism. If Differently Intelligent children don’t measure up, then it is time to change the yardstick.” — Stephen Jay Goldfinger, Biologist,…
