and mine, which believes that the children of [legal] immigrants who can quickly absorb better nutrition and living conditions can also raise their groups median intelligence within one or two generations.Why hasn't it worked for American blacks then? Surely you are not claiming there is widespread mal-nutrition among blacks in America? In fact the average IQ of American blacks is just what you would expect given that on average they are about 20% white. In other words 150 years after the end of slavery and 50 years after Jim Crow your theory still has born no fruit.
I consdier people who cling to theories of egalitarianism in the face of reality "liberals" regardless of what other views they hold.

I think the problem of answering your posts is the inherent conflict in your own position. You appear to believe in your own race’s superiority, but seem to take no comfort in it. You can’t have it both ways.

What reality are you talking about? You have made comments about African Christians having low IQ’s and now American blacks having low IQ’s...”just what you would expect given that on average they are about 20% white.” Come into the modern scientific age and deal with the reality that “race” does not exist. This question was asked in the December 2003 issue of “Scientific American”...”Does Race exist?”
The answer from the scientific studies of genetics...”If races are defined as genetically discrete groups, NO.” Also from the article...”The outward signs on which most definitions of race are based-such as skin color and hair texture-are dictated by a handful of genes. But the other genes of two people of the same ‘race’ can be very different. Conversely, two people of different ‘races’ can share more genetic similarity than two individuals of the same ‘race’.”
Some people knew this before science told us since God had already told us that Eve was the mother of all the living...we all share the same family tree.
