Talk about coincidence!

When I joined MENSA, they told me I tested at 146.

I joined MENSA to meet intelligent women. However, it was in Kahlifornia, so the majority were pretty strange.

I ended up marrying a woman from a family of very high IQs and we had a couple of very bright kids.

When I was in aerospace I spent 7 years working with our most advanced tech. I would bet that almost none of the engineers and scientists I worked with were under 150 and some were much higher.

Some seemed perfectly normal. Others were like the stereotype of the mad scientist.

I had a bro-in-law with an IQ of 200. I bought him a lab coat that said on the back "Union of Mad Scientists, Local 86". He wore it proudly. He WAS, in fact, bipolar and he worked in a lab.

Those are the scary ones. I'm a physicist with IQ ~130, and work with seriously smart people from all around the world.

The smarter they are, the more "IQ glitches" (depression, bipolarity, paranoia, autistic characteristics, etc.) they seem to express. I have no problem with "the mad scientists" and their quirks.

However, the really sharp ones who also appear normal... the just fucking creep me out.

It feels like you're not talking to a human but an alien; or that you're a mouse before a snake.

It's not that they're rude, condescending or overtly threatening in any way. It's the constant full-spectrum (linguistic, intellectual, emotional) manipulation you've got to watch out for. It's a very tiresome defensive battle even if you're supposed to work with them.

It does seem like some very intelligent people tend to be sociopaths or psychopaths

I have sat around a table, at a British pub in San Antonio, while accompanying Mr. LJS to a conference, with some of the most brilliant Physicists in the world. I found their quirky sense of humor to be hilarious. Unless you knew who they were, they appeared to be another group of tipsy people, but unusually quick witted.
 Quoting: Lady Jayne Smith


Yo, LJS!

I also used to be a member of LASFS (Los Angeles Science Fiction Society). They had a group of the smartest, funniest people I had ever met.

I used to go and chat with some of my fave SF authors who attended.

They are smarter in different ways. I was a missionary in kenya and I stayed with a tribe for 2 weeks. They had pet babboons , hyenas and They can make bow and arrows out of bark very easily. Very good at hunting, they were masters at tracking animals. Building a hut is a very good skill. Also they would climb 20-50 ft trees for honey without ropes or anything. Surviving in the wild takes intelligence, just diffeent then modern intelligence. And amazing hospitality. They would share with me all the food i wanted.

Blaxcks are a danger to 1st world societies.

This is why (((THEY))) promote them to such a ridiculous extent.
Nobody is more over represented than blacks on Western Television. And in a dangerous false reality.

They are nothing but tools for TPTB.

And the average penis size for African men is still around 9 inches erect

while white males are about 5.5 inches, on average

this is why white women will always prefer Black men

iq is based on awareness. most common awareness comes from public education. something africans lack, especially at time.

this doesn't mean that africa doesn't have as many einsteins as anyone else, it just means they have a lot more unaware einsteins.

Abstract

Wicherts, Dolan, and van der Maas (2009) contend that the average IQ of sub-Saharan Africans is about 80.

A critical evaluation of the studies presented by WDM shows that many of these are based on unrepresentative elite samples. We show that studies of 29 acceptably representative samples on tests other than the Progressive Matrices give a sub-Saharan Africa IQ of 69; studies of the most satisfactory representative samples on the Standard Progressive Matrices give an IQ of 66; studies of 23 acceptably representative samples on the Colored Progressive Matrices give an IQ of 71.

The international studies of mathematics, science, and reading give a sub-Saharan African IQ of 66.


The four data sets can be averaged to give an IQ of 68 as the best reading of the IQ in sub-Saharan Africa.

Caucasians with down Syndrome still have lower Intelligent Quotient. Should we also judge them for it?

[link to www.steadyhealth.com (secure)]

Now considering the mental aspect of this syndrome the IQ in children with Down syndrome can be in moderate cases from 50 to 70, but in more severe cases it will be less and it will go from 35 to 50. As you can see this condition has a great effect on children’s mental abilities.

Isn't nice to play the race game. Considering you guys never mention anything about Caucasians with low I.Q.

[link to pediatricsnationwide.org (secure)]

We should just assume there are people of all walks with levels of intelligent that differ from other people. Race and I.Q. is easy to debunk.
