Vegetarians are more intelligent, says study

Well, they could have converted to vegetarianism the day before the survey, and still been counted as veggies.

"The typical adult veggie had a childhood IQ of around 105 - around five points higher than those who continued to eat meat as they grew up."

Hmmm- The John Stossel special a while back, I believe, concluded that the average IQ was 110.

Vegetarians are below average IQ.

Tofu, a long time favorite of Vegans, is soybean curd. In an article posted the other day, it was hypothesized that soy based foods were responsible for "feminizing" males and possibly making them gay, since soy contains some estrogen like compounds. If that is the case, then they are not smarter, just better interior decorators, dancers, ice skaters and actors............

[Risha]

LOL!!

Are you series?

Go watch the commercial again my friend.

[Graymatter]

Chocolate is a vegetable product. So is coffee. That's virtually all I eat and they don't call me Graymatter for nothing.

[Gorzaloon]

The vegetarians were also more likely to have gained degrees ..

This merely proves they were exposed to leftist programming in college.

Over here, they are also programmed to have a Greenpeace Sticker on their Mac, and a Kerry sticker on their Volvo.

Shrug.

[Sam Cree]

I'm inclined to view the results of this study as an example of intellectuals overvaluing their intellects...in any case, we may be in trouble if teenaged girls represent the most intelligent examples of humanity.

*************

Wow. That's really something.

[sodpoodle]

It's not surprising that meat-eating FRs (with 1/2 their brains tied behind their backs) have succinctly analyzed and debunked this farcical study.

Well done troops!

Vegetarians are more intelligent, says study

Yes, but looniness is more significantly correlated with greater rather than lesser intelligence.

[djf]

Doesn't matter for squat.

Carnivores RUN FASTER!!

[Sam Cree]

"Isn't a great part of the brain's composition fat?"

Only the part that is not vegetable.

[Fierce Allegiance]

Ohhh, substitute take for have. Oh yeah, that makes a huge difference! /s

[Fierce Allegiance]

Regardless of the composition, human brain matter is the nastiest taste ever!

[BenLurkin]

Mohamed agrees...

The next time you use a line from a Geico commercial, please take the trouble to watch it completely (and in this case, do some research). Risha was just refering to the same ad you quoted.

[the OlLine Rebel]

I can spot them just by their wan, thin, pale, light green faces.

And often lackluster drippy hair.

[the OlLine Rebel]

CHICK-FIL-A!!!! YYEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!

[the OlLine Rebel]

HUH?
