Uh, no.

I am annoyed when the anti-choice people think they can force thier own morality on others. If you are against abortion than don't get one. And the "you're a distroying a life" is also BS, every egg and sperm are also alive.

You're not much of a biology nerd, or else you'd already know how silly that comparison is.

It did make me laugh when politicians have all the people standing around the back of the stage when giving speechs, American style

Believe it or not, that style is by and large a recent innovation in American political stagecraft. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see it come your way soon.

Lets put some perspective, the Official Monster Raving Looney Party registered nearly twice the number of votes per constituency as the Pro-Life Alliance at the last General Election.

Marxism has nothing to say on the matter. Individual Marxists may have somethng to say, but they don't represent Marixsm . . . I do.

Not when the ones in acedamia attack people who reseach behavioral genetics because it threatens thier ideological adhearance to the blank slate.

Call me when behavioral geneticists stop being people who belong to right-wing and racist organizations and trying to prove that certain people are inherently inferior to Northwestern Europeans.

I've actually read things on the topic, and most people who research this stuff are not right-wing racists, so quit with the BAMs and the strawmen.

Oh, right, and I've never read anything on the subject.

Live by the sword, die by the sword, buddy. It's not like you didn't start this off with a BAM and strawman.

Anyway, when the representitives of your favorite field stop writing books like The Bell Curve, and making statements that women are inherently bad at science, I'll stop attacking it for being racist and sexist.

Is behavioural genetics a real science such as physics and chemistry? Or at least as described by Sir Karl Popper?

Thats is like saying all molecular biologists are creationists just because of Behe. every field has it's cooks and nuts. Every non-nut who works on the subject will tell you there is no difference in the average of the INHEIRETED portion of inteligence between ethinic group or sex.



UR, Yes it is a real science. Unless you think Biology is not real science just because it uses concepts instead of mathamatical laws.

If you're thinking of that Phillip Whatsisname guy, I thought he was promoting East Asian supremacy.

He still offers one optional course over on main campus here, but it's a silly 'video course' where you don't actually get to ask questions.

Hmmmm, I wonder why? maybe he is afraid a student with a brain will rip his BS to shreds.

[Seeker]

Well duhhh...

But they(profs) gotta put in some teaching component to keep their jobs over there, and his research efforts are rather treadmillish for obvious reasons,so hes gotta do somthing to keep the bucks rolling in.

I guess not enough net nazis know how to read and buy his book or something.
