Without reading too deep into what other people posted in this thread, I like to post my own theory:

The only studies on IQ vs race where the study objects grew up in a somewhat similar environment have been made in the USA. Whites got a score around 100, blacks around 85 and yellow around 105. While there is a slight chance that these figures might represent the race as a whole, there is also the chance of the following scenario, based on historical migration patterns:

White people who emigrated to America came from all classes and were thus expected to have an average IQ.

Black people who were captured as slaves were not the elite of their tribes. They might even have been sold by their own tribe leaders in some cases. So the smartest Africans stayed in Africa.

Yellow people who emigrated to America have to a large extent been the most skilled in their society.

As mixed-race marriages are less common than same-race marriages, these features have been genetically passed on for several generations.

Youre so desparate to come across as PC that you won't even consider the issue.

I'll ask again, if the races are different physically, why won't you even consider the possibility that they may be different mentally?

Jeez, a) it does matter (it's knowledge) and b) it isn't proven 'cos people like you are scared of serious research into the subject.

Why does anyone choose to talk about any subject? I talk about it because I find it interesting, no matter where the results lead. A better quesion would be why are you so keen to stifle discussion?

The answer to the second statement leads us in a circle to the whole 'IQ test' thing again so I won't bother.

I'm not stifling discussion. I just think racist people like to talk about it, and other people mostly don't give a **** about it. I don't know why you guys sucker normal people into your discussions.

The world today seems absolutely crackers,
With nuclear bombs to blow us all sky high.
There's fools and idiots sitting on the trigger.
It's depressing and it's senseless, and that's why...
I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're always friendly, and they're ready to please.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
There's nine hundred million of them in the world today.
You'd better learn to like them; that's what I say.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They come from a long way overseas,
But they're cute and they're cuddly, and they're ready to please.

I like Chinese food.
The waiters never are rude.
Think of the many things they've done to impress.
There's Maoism, Taoism, I Ching, and Chess.

So I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
I like their tiny little trees,
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their yin, and yang-ese.

I like Chinese thought,
The wisdom that Confucious taught.
If Darwin is anything to shout about,
The Chinese will survive us all without any doubt.

So, I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're wise and they're witty, and they're ready to please.

All together.

[verse in Chinese]
Wo ai zhongguo ren. (I like Chinese.)
Wo ai zhongguo ren. (I like Chinese.)
Wo ai zhongguo ren. (I like Chinese.)
Ni hao ma; ni hao ma; ni hao ma; zaijien! (How are you; how are you; how are you; goodbye!)

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
Their food is guaranteed to please,
A fourteen, a seven, a nine, and lychees.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
I like their tiny little trees,
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their yin, and yang-ese.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees...

Don't go to far Q Cubed, Korea just now is abandoning phrenology (the science of head shapes and bumps).

And Japan is responsible for Hello Kitty (a far worse crime than the Bataan Death March).

And the genre of 'Hentai' is an asian creation.

But asia did give us hot chicks
