        Of course this is a controversial topic plagued with bad information. It reminds me of the truth vs truth podcast between you and Peterson.

        Exactly. I think the only enjoyable point of this topic/episode was @SamHarrisOrg asking whether this topic was worth studying...

        Imagine you discover that basketball suddenly becomes the most important activity. Then you realize nobody wants to talk about human height.

        I understand the logic w/o the metaphor. But we are having a Truth v. truth debate & I've already listed to hours of this discussion.

        Not sure what you mean by Truth v. truth. Either there are different distributions of IQ among races or not.

        If basketball is the bast activity & there is different distribution among races then we should know so we can provide help. Instead of hide

        Why is it worth knowing? If we don't know is the world better? If IQ is mostly genetic &predisposed how do you propose we "provide help?"

        Don't know is never better. It's like saying if you don't know gravity you won fall. First help is by not providing the wrong policies.

        The majority of scientists, (as linked) think at most 40% due to genes; Murray's claims about socioeconomics not mattering are moot points

        Yeah, our biology includes our environment, which we're always constrained by from how we act in a moment to basic functions like breathing

        If your talking about human biology, that always includes influences from the environment, all the way down. You are part of the environment

        If we could; regression analysis is a helpful tool to find links, but hardly definitive to be able to separate genes from environment

        And people wonder why Charles Murray gets the reaction he does. He's the iron that puts the creases in the KKK's sheets.

        Is Sam Harris a reputable or an expert source on anything? NO demonstrably so. Try reading research journals than listening to podcasts.
