fairly self explanatory. overwhelming amount of risky consanguineous marriages in Islamic countries, because the ancient text encourages it.

one of the side effects of a low IQ? irrational fear, anger, and hostility. huh. where have i heard that before...

personally i don't think there is anything wrong with using statistics to draw your own conclusions.


there's nothing wrong with it but it's wise to realize that the data you're using to draw your conclusions does have flaws and in no way makes your conclusions concrete

I'm not even trying to say that inbreeding is why muslims are kooky, or that they are even kooky, but to deny that inbreeding causes iq loss is weird to me.

then its important to make the distinction between speculation and "fact" and realize that no matter what you believe about the situation there is no concrete evidence to back it up


Yes, there is.

you can't make conclusions from observational studies because you can't control all the factors that could possibly be contributing to what you're measuring

i never said that ?? im just saying that you can't conclusively state any of this until a proper study has been done

unless you can get people to agree to purposely inbreed, give each inbred child exactly the same treatment as non-inbred children and other inbred children, record their theoretical intelligence levels, and repeat this process for several generations, you can't conclusively state that one causes the other.


You are actually arguing that inbreeding doesn't harm Intelligence levels. Inbreeding- that is to say, your cousin. And you mean to tell me that that doesn't decrease intelligence levels?

honestly i dont even have an opinion on the matter but it irks me when people use statistics improperly

there have been a few, one conducted in india, but not enough to take a completely conclusive stance

that's what speculation is for :D

and im saying that no such study has been done so making any claims about the topic is idiotic
