The average person today would make the average person of the Middle Ages look like a stunted stupid disease ridden moron.

A better diet does a lot of that. Nobility back then was also taller and smarter

Well absolutely.

But in terms of real effective IQ - the average keeps going up.

In terms of height - the average keeps going up.

In terms of health and longevity - the average keeps going up.

I don’t attribute genetic causes to it, but it takes one hell of a creationist mindset to absolutely ignore all of the evidence of the vast improvements in the average human.
