published in the middle 1990‘s was the product of one Richard Herrnstein and Charles
Murray. They too touched on race and intelligence. For that taboo, they have roundly
been stoned by the ever tolerant Leftists. Their primary concern was not race, but to
explain, using public and private statistics, the gaps in intelligence in various parts of the
United States. Now it is impossible to do this without finding race as an influence one
way or another. They identified an intelligence gap and that is demonstrated by the Bell
Curve. They warned about a decrease of intelligence if something was not done. Oh yes
the Leftists cannot be bothered with such worries when they are consumed with Global
Warming, and that ugly disgusting stuff…Oil.
What I hope you understand is that the scientific world is crippled by the left as the
former tries to understand I.Q. and Common sense. Scientists are frightened to venture
into the dark unknown recesses of brain inquiry for fear of being half buried and stoned
to death. What I hope you also understand, it is not Conservatives who want to do this.
Conservatives want and hope for enlightenment.
CHAPTER 9
(KEOAAAID 9—Greek)
He uses statistics as a drunken Man uses lamp-posts… For support rather than
illumination.
Andrew Lang (1844-1912) AN OVER-VIEW: PROBLEMS OF THE MIND Because the
mind is so elusive about telling us its secret, we cannot precisely list all of its problems.
With a car or computer, diagnostic work is relatively easy because we have the blue
prints. We created them. God, Darwin, or Aliens created our brains, and whoever did it,
they made the divining difficult. We have developed some as-built drawings of the ole
gray matter, but mostly it remains a mystery. No one has learned the inter-workings well
enough to tell you or me what makes up a single thought.
Listing and examining the misfires of the brain is a little better. These misfires are often
enough and alike enough that we can attempt to define them.
The IQ definition of Dumb and Bright: One way to define misfires is to rate the ability to
memorize and logically apply the memory. This is the Intelligent Quotient syndrome. (I
jest.) For example, a low IQ is measurable. We can find a mean mark and rate very good
IQ and set a mark for the dumb and the genius. But this is not an end in of itself. By
doing so, you have only gone half way to wisdom or full intelligence. Wisdom is a
combination of IQ and common sense. To see how little common sense has been studied,
and how enamored we are with IQ simply search the Web for either. Having spent days
and days researching this issue, I can tell you most of the so-called IQ tests are not well
done. Those found on the internet are pathetic. The many, so called Common Sense, tests
I found were IQ tests. Besides, there is a great ego thing that goes with IQ. Most
dummies might believe that if they have an over average (90 to 110) IQ, they are
superior. Superior over what pray tell? This is so, even if they flunk out in social
gatherings and cannot pick their nose the same way twice. This ego trip is why there is a
Mensa International which is a grouping of people who have scored high on an IQ test.
