Look, I understand that there are those of you here who wish to assert the inferiority of Africans and their supposed lack of contribution to civilization. There are those of you who want to elevate yourself as being the master race. But you are really laboring from the fallacy of recency. You look around you today and see shiny things (eg nice cars). You think that these objects are the apex of human achievement, and whoever invented them must be geniuses. But you fail to realize that 100,000 years ago, our ancestors in Africa faced much more severe environmental privations. The challenges they faced were more difficult than the challenges you face today. I would bet that anyone from today transported to 100,000 years ago will not last a day in the savannahs of Africa.
ON the news about two days ago they did discovery I think it was in central asia a human that is older than the one they found in africa It's pretty new discovery.

That guy, or girl, most likely originated in India after it broke away from Africa.

It's like this - At one time humans were telekinetic - then some fool invented the wheel.

And THAT is where Detroit came from.

People have been getting dumber by the century.

Dumber by the day, lately.

This could be a start to getting back on track. ?

No, its widely acknowledged that Jews and East Asians have a higher mean IQ than Europeans aka whites. Ohhh are you going to insinuate the ridiculous notion that modern IQ tests are somehow racially biased? The correlation between per capita GDP and mean IQ is no coincidence. Even worldwide the link between ethnicity and IQ is constant, which dispels the myth that geography plays a key role. The difference is rooted in the genes for the most part.
