So the question is, Huggy, are you saying that you believe the inherent intelligence of the races is equal, and if so, what justification do you have for that belief?
That's not how the null hypothesis works. Why would the default position be that every human is different?
I'm not saying that I'm necessarily on firm footing here, as already discussed, I'm new to the subject. However that seems rather circular. We assume the homogeneity of the species in order to frame what we will consider as evidence against that homogeneity. I don't know. I'll have to give it some thought. To be honest, the question may be a little above my pay grade.
What happens ultimately if we do determine that the races have inherent differences in intelligence?
