In my opinion, people fall into two broad categories; the clever and the not so clever.
The same applies to all.
Skin, anatomy and geographical heritage are not differentiators.
I would also suggest, that in this respect, intelligent and clever should not be confused.

Fredsnephew Quote In my opinion, people fall into two broad categories; the clever and the not so clever.
Then at least you are on the right track. Social layering in societies over 200 people usually reflect differing IQ levels, with the smartest (or the most ruthless) at the top, and the people with the lowest IQ on the bottom. Smart people from the lower classes are usually upwardly mobile.
Fredsnephew The same applies to all. Skin, anatomy and geographical heritage are not differentiators.
Once again, you are almost on the right track. Intelligent or du-mb people exist within every race, but the problem for some dysfunctional ethnicities is, that the proportions of very low IQ, low IQ, average IQ, high IQ, and gifted IQ, differ from race to race. In addition, the fact that different races have different physical abilities is evidenced in sport. Some races make exceptional runners but do not even bother competing at the Olympic level in swimming events. People with white skin are better adapted to living in cold environments, people with brown skin are better adapted to live in Mediterranean type environments, and people with black skin better adapted to live in very hot and sunny open savannas. Then there is the differences in personality which is usually linked to IQ. Some races are much more violent than others because they are better adapted to live in dangerous environments where food resources can be scarce. In such a scenario, the most warlike tribes will expel the lest warlike tribes from prime habitats. People with low IQ are usually very violent people. Conversely, high IQ people are not noted for being violent people.
Fredsnephew quote I would also suggest, that in this respect, intelligent and clever should not be confused.
Once again, Fred, you are on the right track. Intelligence is measurable and accurate. If it was not, the military, academia, and industry would not use IQ tests to weed out unsuitable candidates. I do not know how cognitive metricians measure overall intelligence, since I am not a cognitive metrician, and IQ’s can be a spectrum. People can have high or low social IQ’s, high or low musical IQ’s, high or low mathematical IQ’s, high or low literary IQ’s, and high or low athletic IQ’s. Some people with high IQ’s in one area have low IQ’s in another. Example, J. Robert Oppenheimer was a brilliant mathematician, but he was socially naïve and apparently frightened of pretty girls. The secretaries at Los Alamos had a lot of fun with Oppenheimer.

Convert to what? One difference between myself and my detractors is that I usually explain myself fully and rarely resort to sneery one liners. And never ones with cryptic messages. And, unlike you, I answer crucial questions which you keep dodging forever. Prove me wrong. How do you know that races are equal?

Any policy that favors or discriminates against someone due to their race in admissions, hiring, promotions, bonuses, influence, benefits, scholarships, grants, or awarding contracts is a racist policy. Any policy that claims you can know someone's intentions, implicit biases, guilt, oppressor/victim status, privileges, value, or fragility based solely on their race is a racist policy. DEI and affirmative action are racist policies. I know some will argue that their racism is good, and even holy racism, but its just ugly old racism, and racism is wrong. Even the racism that the left says is right.

Are you a racist now JS? Oh goody. All of those debates I had with you for months where you told me that racism was wrong, and according to polytheist, you have changed your mind? Well, that's a relief. I am glad that you now see the error of your ways and are now as big a racist as I am. I consider you to be a job well done.

You know that I think the value of a person comes from within them. That's an Aristotelian notion that the value of a thing arises from the thing itself. From a religious perspective I believe people are made in the image of God and therefore all have value.
I don't believe that race determines ones outcome. I recognize that one's choices, chance, and chromosomes play a part. Americans are taller, on average, than Asians. That may be chromosomal or diet related. Asians do better academically in the US than whites, well and every other racial group. That is more about choices, as Asian students, on average, study for twice the average time a day as whites, and 4 times the average amount of Blacks. Where someone starts in life is not their fault. Appalachian American children and some urban kids are poorer on average than others - their environment, higher drug use, and higher rates of single parent homes contribute to this.
But unlike leftists, I don't think a person is entitled to preferential treatment nor to be discriminated against. because of their skin color. Instead I think we can help lift people of all races up, without tearing others down. just sayin

JS quote Bogie, How are you doing?
Okay, although I forgot that Factfinder was just a troll and spent a few posts treating him like an honest person, only to have him call me a cu*nt twice. That is the end of any exchanges I will have with him ever again. When I checked my Troll list, he was not only on it, he had star billing.
JS quote Only a leftist would think that someone who does not support discriminating against someone based on her race is a racist.
Psychologists call it “cognitive dissonance” which is the ability of someone to have diametrically opposite principles at the same time, without crashing mental gears. Factfinder just told me that he does not believe that “all races are equal, but that does not mean he is a racist.” Leaving aside that his statement is a contraction in itself, he is now supporting the idea that races are not equal, while at the same time advocating that they are equal.
Here is his direct quote Factfinder quote. I do not think all races are equal but I'm not a racist.
Cuckoo. Cuckoo. Kinda hard to debate against that “logic.”
JS quote I don't believe that race determines ones outcome.
Well that is where you and I will always differ, but because we are both intelligent people, we don’t call each other filthy names just because we don’t see eye to eye.
JS quote But unlike leftists, I don't think a person is entitled to preferential treatment nor to be discriminated against.
They can probably see that too, but they know that advocating for an ideology which benefits themselves is the name of the game. Some wise person said that it is impossible to make people understand anything, if their job depends upon not understanding it.
JS quote Instead I think we can help lift people of all races up, without tearing others down.
That is a very nice, Christian ideal but it has no basis in reality. Like other sub species of living organisms, different human sub species look different, act different, have different physical abilities, different mental abilities, have different tolerances to human pathogens, can live in different altitudes, and can digest foods which other sub species can not. Mother nature, excuse me, God, is no egalitarian.

Just because I don't support racist policies that many leftists support, does not mean that I don't want to see minorities succeed. I just don't think it is just to help someone of one race succeed while discriminating against someone else. For example, when racist Harvard lost its Supreme Court case for discriminating against Asian students in admissions, by Harvard's own admission, 1/2 of all Asian students rejected had higher SAT scores and GPA averages than the average scores for Black students accepted. Harvard's records showed that Asian students had to score 120 points higher on their SAT to be given the same consideration as a Black student. That's racism. Now, I'm sure that some will argue that their racism is well intentioned - they want more Black students at elite schools, yet it is definitely racism because it kept qualified Asian students out who were more qualified than some Black students who got in.
