I don't think the study of genetics is near able to be deterministic about traits. But to answer your question, I guess we have to ask Cystic Fibrosis, because its racist. For some reason it's the most common genetic disease amongst people of western European Mediterranean descent. In fact, The Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation explicitly says that CF only affects the "caucasian racial group." So of course the real answer to your question is that objective truth doesn't know about your racism. It just is. So if it's true that one genetic group has a higher genetic predisposition to intelligence, then it's objective truth. But I suppose we can deny this and call these people racists. Like these guys: "Sickle cell anemia affects millions of people worldwide. In the United States, the disease affects about 70,000 people-mainly African Americans." http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/dci/Diseases/Sca/SCA_Summary.html RACISTS! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:289519 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
