Do you deny that the laws of heredity apply to humans just as they apply to cattle, hogs, and pea plants?
The attitude of some religious conservatives towards eugenics strangely mirrors that of hysterical leftists with their babble about "equality", only with some scriptural quotes tossed in.
“the laws of heredity”
The mistake in your analogy is that it reduces human beings to single-trait biological products.
While the basic laws of Mendelian inheritance apply to humans, intelligence is not a single, fixed trait like ‘coat color’ in cattle or ‘pea shape’ in a garden. It is a polygenic phenomenon where thousands of genes interact with an incredibly complex, malleable environment.
Cattle don’t build libraries, establish legal systems, or learn languages that alter the neuroplasticity of their brains.
When you treat society like a farm, you ignore the very thing that differentiates human civilization from livestock: our capacity for culture, innovation, and self-directed change.
If you focus only on ‘breeding’ and ignore the institutional and cultural ‘software’—the values, discipline, and education that allow those genes to express themselves—you’re ignoring the primary driver of human advancement
