      From 800 BC to 1950 AD, 97% of the world’s scientific advancements occurred in Europe and North America. 98% of the significant figures were male. No white males, no modern world. Fact. I’m grateful. Are you? End the hate. Aspire to admire, whatever the race.

      No way this is true. The Arab world alone came up with algebra, geometry, and trigonometry around the 9th/10th c. And they laid the groundwork for chemistry, not to mention advancements in astronomy, medicine, biology, etc. Oh yeah and one more little thing: The Scientific Method

      Arabs are typically credited with algebra. The word “algebra” is derived from ancient Arabic. No one knows the origins of geometry or trigonometry, though. It’s true that Arabs and Egyptians both used them, but the Greeks deserve credit for the formalization of logic and geometry

      No one worth mentioning would deny the importance of these contributions. But, it’s also undeniable that the contributions to philosophy, mathematics, and science by Europeans obscenely dwarfs those of others. Whatever the reason, it’s true.

      Also important to remember that a big part of the Arab world was under hellenization after Alexander the Great and Rome Empire. That is why there are roman buildings in Palmyra ( yes that ones ISIS destroyed ). Later replaced by Islamic culture.

      The Arabs were also doing a lot better intellectually before Islam solidified cousin marriage, which takes 10+ IQ points away from the general population.

          also, around 1500 they focused on strenghthening their religion and worldview, instead of science. Western europe starts its tech and science advantage around this time.

          Dude most folks were marrying cousins before then. The world in the preindustrial was L-O-C-A-L. As in our daily commute would’ve been an all day affair between communities. Stop with the lies, Stefan and do your homework.

          So everyone had the 10 points penalty back then. The ones that stooped gain 10 point. Does not change the argument.

          It does because the whole IQ argument is spurious. The act of learning or developing knowledge isn’t something that has a magnitude beyond its effects on productivity when considering immediate benefits.

          Also it invalidates the theory that cousin marrying magically causes a worldwide brain drain for our species. Many recognized thinkers actually wound up marrying their own cousins (second or third).

          So to lean on this BS argument that cousin marrying equals -10 to your INT stat isn’t going to fly upon closer inspection.
