Race and IQs

[FatAndFaithless]

If a particular race has an overall lower I.Q. according to statistics, I would personally think genetics were a major contributing factor.  Which is not to state that some people within that race are not genetically blessed to have higher I.Q.s.

I don't think that anyone would disagree that genetics play a role in intelligence, but certainly so does environment.  Someone with zero or close-to-zero access to educational resources, or brought up in a culture that heavily indoctrinates certain ideas, etc, would also be expected to suffer intelligence-wise, even with good genes.
