I appreciate this is a controversial matter but I see in the Press that James
Watson, the biologist who in 1962 won the Nobel Prize for his pioneering
work on the structure of DNA, is the first living recipient to sell his Nobel
Prize at auction because he says financially he has been ostracized by every-
one for declaring in 1997 that, based on his scientific DNA research, black
people are overall less intelligent than white people.

What does the Team think ?

I think that James Watson is talking a crock of shit. Intelligence is hard to measure anyway, and the ways of measuring intelligence are always influenced by whatever culture is doing the testing.

As for ostracizing Watson........that is unneeded and wrong. Good science always prevails and will either show him to be wrong or right. The ostracising is politically motivated and should always be kept out of science.

If one was of a particular bent, one might refer to David Johnson's post about Africa and one response suggesting that Africans did not have the wherewithal (for which read intelligence) to exploit the various oil/diamonds/gold reserves etc and it took Westerners to do it.

I've not seen such a post.

But please remember that knowledge and intelligence are two different things. One is about what you've learnt, the other you capacity for learning.

It was in this thread. Frank Thring refers to it:

Ha......well.....I did see that as it was a reply to my post (in threaded view). I read a little up to the point where he addresses David, realised it wasn't for me and then closed the thread.

If he thinks it ok to exploit Africa's reserves then I'm sure he'd be perfectly fine with foreigners coming here exploiting our benefits system.

Of course they're less intelligent. Man was created white, God created man in his image. Black people came about when man mated with animal, Satan's doing. That doesn't make either, more, or less superior, absolutely not, none of us got to choose being here or how we got here, we are all one at the end of the day, all God's children regardless of any interference.

You been watching Django Frank?

Leonardo DiCaprio brilliantly explained the same thing to justify why black people were slaves when in truth they need these brrilliant explanation to convince themselves they are better than everybody...

Probably because they envy the big black dick , glistening muscle tone, great dance moves and the fact we got your jobs and fuck your women and nothing makes a man feel small than to feel insignificant because he hates himself so much he has to justify it with bullshit scientific essays written by some racist moron in the 19th century.

Gene Hackman said it best in Mississippi Burning: "If you ain't better than a nigger son, who are you better than?"

Sums up all that I said in that sentence
