You really don't want to split hairs with me. For the purpose of this argument, "racist" means exactly what it means in the dictionary. Obviously the idea of race is made up and arbitrary, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have real-world implications.
You just split hairs with a person who is a master of splitting hairs.
Well first of all there is a huge difference between Racism and Racial Hatred.
Racial Hatred, its obvious why that is oppressive, but Racism (classification) is just as oppressive. Why? Because of the children. When a child is first becoming cognizent, they are competitive and when there is a majority or minority, they classify themselves in their little minds and feel they got some sort of short end of the stick and it tramatizes them during development years.
So thats why its not Ok to treat ppl based on what race they are.
We should all be more multicultural and tolerant as to easy this sense of competition.
a lot of minorities are guilty of being racist, and think only racial hatred is wrong but think its ok to call people "white people" or just overall see themselves as their race as their identity as opposed to two people who just see themselves as people.
You were basically saying Blacks are dumb and violent without outright saying it. Yes, that's racism.
Ive never seen a human who has "black" skin. I have seen brown. I think calling Africans "blacks" is more racist than anything I have said.
Also, ever heard the cliche "dumb jock?" The old adage of athletic guys being dumb? Its not race specific.
Furthermore, those people aren't dumb. Its a different type of "smart" and especially in the realm of mind-body connection. If there was a war, you'd want them on the battlefield (think NFL players with high IQ) They are simply thinking in a way that is contrast to book intelligence and if you threw a scientist on the football field he would be lost and his body couldn't keep up with his mind. So in that respect a football player is smarter. But you see, its still about focus vs dynamism. The athletes have no patience to get an engineering degree because their brains dont work that way. And they way they got to that mental state was initially affected by T levels amongst other things and that is the thing that sets people on one path or another in their developmental years.
This is why you don't want to split hairs with me. You do not have, nor have you ever formulated, your own theory. A theory takes years of empirical research, peer-reviewed study, and thought to come up with. You have a hypothesis, and a silly one.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_theory
Your "theories," by the way, absolutely are disprovable. Perhaps not by "scientific theories," but by empirical evidence that falls in the realm of sociology and anthropology.
My "theories" have not been disproven, in fact the patterns are congruent every day I meet new people.
And you still haven't answered my question: does science have an answer?
Though you are smarter than the rest, you suspiciously just relied on debunking and proving the guy wrong style of arguing (effective yet cheap) and you never actually pointed in the right direction as to explain some other factors.
This is funny for a number of reasons, the least of which is because you clearly don't really seem to have a concept of the word "smart."
While I don't think you are stupid, you're also not particularly brilliant. If I had to guess (and I am, admittedly, no expert), I'd put your IQ between 115 and 125 as a maximum ceiling. Or to be more plain, I'd say you're "smarter" than 75-95% of the population. Your average scientist, someone with a PhD, has an IQ of ~130, or an intelligence greater than 98% of the population. Obviously intelligence comes in many forms, and two people with identical IQs can be smart in dramatically different ways, but I think it's fairly clear by your reasoning, rhetoric and fairly simplistic thought processes, that you aren't what psychologists refer to as "gifted," but rather, somewhere between "above average" and "superior"; again, "superior" being a ceiling.
Actually the definition of genius is having a balanced and high level of both left brain and right brain.
I am gifted at both. Got an 102% in college calculous, and also got famous on the internet due to art and humor.
I guarantee all the scientists who think they are smarter than me would get shook and yammed on on the basketball courts.
Experiences don't make you smarter, though they do offer you opportunities to flex your intellectual muscle.
all intelligence is just patterns. The more patterns you absorb, the more your brain has capacity to engage that dynamic right brain turbo charger where you transcend the traditional limits of humanity.
The right side of the brain is good for many things. Creativity, spatial ability, emotion, impulsivity, art, and more. It is not, however, capable of reason, logic, or rational thought. People who rely exclusively on the right side of their brains are the ones who are basically limited. They're stuck in a dreamland full of radical possibilities, none of which are actually rooted in reality. They tend to be more republican, more traditional, more emotional (to the exclusion of all else), live with their head in the clouds, and are difficult to reason with because they themselves lack reason. Perhaps ironically, low testosterone tends to be associated with superstitious and outlandish beliefs such as those you are espousing right now.
And luckily I have left brain horsepower to spare to balance it out.
Testosterone changes minute to minute, and even second to second. When we wake up, our T levels are about 50% higher than by the time we fall asleep. Our T levels increase around pretty women, or when we are threatened, or feeling powerful, and fall when we lose, or are feeling depressed. They fall when we become fathers. There are a million factors that affect androgen levels, some of them social/cultural/environmental. This easily explains differences between races; Blacks tend to be poorer due to their history and societal racism. Harsher conditions breeds stress which raises levels of male hormones. Yes, T levels tend to drop by, if I remember correctly, ~5ng/dL per year (or a bit less than 1%) after the age of 20, but that's far less significant than what i've just mentioned.
If you measured the test of 100 guys in prison, vs 100 random school teachers, who do you think would have a higher average...
Ok then...
No... we're annoyed because you're making broad, sweeping and basically racist generalizations. And because most of what you're saying is absolute nonsense.
Like I mentioned earlier, it would take many essays to properly formulate what I said... but what I wrote initially was like a cliff note explanation for the basic differences in the way peoples minds work.
Its not stuff I made up either, its all stuff I read about and regurgitated briefly.
The truth is that everything that dictates human choices and behavior is all the same in many people. We are very simple creatures in a way. And we are all the same few different types. Once you realize this you can start to notice patterns.
some of these patterns are outside the scope of sociological study.
Many things its illegal to even try to study or test for and all we have is unethical studies from Russians in the past.
so yes, there are many things science doesn't dare to talk about that regardless of mass political correctness, are true realities.
