T Samner, I've read some of your threads, which (correct me if I'm wrong) seem to state that caucasians are of naturally higher intellect or development than other races, such as asians, blacks, etc.

If that's the case, how do you explain something like the Japanese, who highlyl excel in science, technology, and manufacturing? How can they, on their little isolated island, do things such as build the best cars in the world, bring the American car manufacturers to their knees, etc.

If you look at their culture, educational level, achievements (becoming a world superpower on a little island with almost no natural resources), etc. don't you agree they are very advanced, probably more than America on most levels? How can that be?

I read once that President Eisenhower stated in a nationally televised speech that it had come to his attention that fully 1/2 of the US population had below average intelligence. Don't know if its true or not. If someone says something that they believe is profound, and you think is really stupid, just say "Wow, you must be at the top of the IQ bell curve". They'll think you tossed them a compliment.

wouldn't the statement that half of the US population is below average intellect be exactly how the numbers would work if you did the math? it would take the upper half to average out the lower half? did i miss something there? maybe i am in the lower half? my pay check would not prove such.

is the author of this thread the guy i read about being some new member that is akin to spam with his posts? some one had an idea that you needed 100+ posts in the tech sections before you could "graduate" to the OT section? i vote he should, he's never make it to a hundy there.

K911sc, yeah, that's exactly the point, makes you wonder which side of average Eisenhower was on. If I understand it correctly, an IQ of 100 is, by definition, average.

The truth is that there are IQ differences between races. I saw it on wikipedia. But the bad news for T samner, aka point out truth, is that the asians kick the caucasian asses :D.

The Japanese have created some good products but they are also aware that they have contributed rather little to math, science and engineering. There are only a handful of Asian Nobel Prize winners in science and I don’t think that there is even one that did his work in an Asian country and with no White colleagues. The Japanese leapt forward by adopting Western science and technology and they also engaged in wholesale copying.

Modern Japan

Samurai of the Satsuma clan, during the Boshin War period, circa 1867. Photograph by Felice Beato.On March 31, 1854, Commodore Matthew Perry and the "Black Ships" of the United States Navy forced the opening of Japan to the West with the Convention of Kanagawa. The Boshin War of 1867-1868 led to the resignation of the shogunate, and the Meiji Restoration established a government centered around the emperor. One of the main figures that helped bring change was Fukuzawa Yukichi who wrote the article "Leaving Asia", encouraging Japanese people to be open to change and modernize through Westernization.

Japan adopted numerous Western institutions, including a modern government, legal system and military. Japan introduced a parliamentary system modeled after the British parliament, with Itō Hirobumi as first Prime Minister in 1882.

I also do not believe that the Japanese build the best cars in the world. Nobody has yet to equal BMW’s 3-series and the reviews I’ve read on the new Lexus LS are pretty tepid. A few examples:

Also, as far as I can tell companies like Bosch, Siemens and Continental Teves are the only suppliers of ABS, ESC, piezo injection technology etc. to the auto manufacturers and if those German companies stopped supplying the Japanese manufacturers with that technology, their cars would be back in the automotive stone age. And don’t forget that at the pinnacle of international motorsport, Formula One, the top three teams again this year were all European.
