Christianity runs in families.

Hera, do you have any information as to the genetic heritability of religion? What about its racial/national distribution and its correlation with, say, income?

[Al B. Sure!]

you mean IQ. Hera's most concerned with correlating things with IQ.

[KrazyHorse]

[Al B. Sure!]

Religion and IQ. He says Jews have very high IQ's.

Jews are a race. (that share a religion for a large part).
There are racial differences, so that's not impossible.

Jews are a race, really?
Define race, which concept do you adhere to?
If you align to the common conception of "Semites", proof that Jews are a race different from other Semites, like Arabs.
What are the racial differences of Jews, I mean beside being greedy, sharp nosed, baby-eating, capitalistic communist conspirators which everyone knows they are?

[Robert]

Well, race is perhaps not the right word. But they're a nation, a group of people. Like the Germans, the French, the Dutch, the Chinese.
If there are IQ differences, then it has nothing to do with the religion but with the way they are biologically related to each other.

You didn't got that from my first post?

You still tie IQ and other characteristics in human ethnicities to some kind of biological relatedness of human subgroups which you perceive to be homogenous and biologically definable from their neighbours, whether you call it race or nation. Yet, ethnicity is not a foremost biological concept.

Secondly, your first answer was "since Jews are a race", "this" [=ties with IQ] "are not impossible", now you make both religion and IQ dependent variables from "biological relatedness".

Your final "if" "then" reasoning makes no sense at all, anyway, it's just an assumption.

You are simply a Christian Heraclitus.

Catholicism is the greatest religion and yes it is correlated with the Alpish race-types. The more narrow-headed of the north/south have simplified religions like Protestantism and Islam, quite simple uncomplicated ones really and adapted to their own level of cerebral development.

Is it any wonder really that Bavaria is the richest of all Federal countries in Germany?

When it's about money Judaism beats Christianity hands down *runs*

Hahaha, you get that all from my comment?
Dude, read my comment in it's context

A first post is made about Jews and then it's related to the jewish religion.
I simply point out that Jews are not only a religion, but also a group of biological related people.

Now you should take some pills to relax a tad bit

[Elok]

Yeah, I don't think Mr. Plomp subscribes to Hera's beliefs. Especially not the transhumanism.

[Asher]

I admit to reading my own thread headline as this subject while skimming the forum.

[MrFun]

Well, race is perhaps not the right word.

Maybe ethnicity is a better word.
