I would even like to see this conclusive study being performed upon individuals whose parents health has not been affected by socioeconomic factors and who have engaged in proper prenatal care. I would like this study done on individuals whose parents have the same level of parenting skills and the same access to what a child needs to thrive.

I would love to see a test that eliminates everything but race and have it done on enough individuals to manage a representative sampling.

I surmise, myself, that there is no true difference in raw IQ between the races. I have seen no conclusive documentation that any race is substandard in raw intelligence to another.

I have known White geniuses, Black geniuses, Native American geniuses, Asian geniuses, etc, and I am not a slouch myself. I have known those with lower IQ's in all of these races as well.

This study I desire is not going to occur. I know it. However, I do not accept the "fact" that any race is intellectually substandard until a test can be done that eliminates everything but race.

This is wayyyy to much to ask. Unbiased documentation was not the intention of this so-called finding in the first place. Reread Sonflour's post. She said something very interesting: We need to know who is funding this and why? What are their intentions? They already know the results of this "scientific" find is totally false.
