I think you’ve touched on something very important: the old question of heredity v. environment. Generally, liberals have attributed everything good or bad to environment. But they’ve ignored the fact that PEOPLE CREATE THEIR ENVIRONMENT according to their intelligence, abilities and values. In the most recent addition of “The Bell Curve,” (the late)Richard Hernnstein and Charles Murray state that it’s a fact heredity is not less than 40% nor less than 80% of a person’s capability. Therefore, they took the median figure of 60% to do their research. I’m oversimplifying, but their conclusion was that HEREDITY is the most single crucial factor in creating an environment. I can send you a recent article by Murray demonstrating how the superior intelligence of the Jews exemplifies this. I know that statement is controversial but you MUST read it to understand it’s real meaning.

Yes put in in my mail by all means The jews are a good example when looking at the Nobel Laurettes in the Sciences.

Up till now one had to keep the truth hidden but that is changing with these crazy groups like the NAACP who spend their time being an embarasment to themselves.. Thank You for the reply
