Once upon a time in Baghdad (present day Iraq) there existed for a time the Islamic Golden Age. It began to decline with the introduction of sharia law and influence of Al-Ghazali one of Islam's greatest thinkers who downplayed the significance of cause and effect (science).

Islamic civilizations are stuck 1000 years in the past with sharia law preventing them from developing anything resembling Western Civilization the greatest the world has ever seen.

There are studies showing a very clear connection with IQ and violence towards children. High IQ people are a lot less violent towards their kids, than lower IQ people. Culture is part of it, but culture evolves based a lot on genetic realities.

What studies and where?

Where/how do you get this average IQ rating? I have taken a few IQ tests in my life. Only one I give any real credibility to. It's not a simple thing to test IQ. And many debate it's validity in the best of circumstances. Pretty damning statement to make without backup

No, they are accurate. The best predictor of teen pregnancy, drug use, employment opportunities. The US Army won't admit anyone under 84 for a reason. They cause more problems than they solve.

How are we measuring intelligence?? By traditional Western notions? How well has that turned out? Universal happiness? Wellness? Explosion of knowledge and wisdom? Healthy families, communities, planet?

C’mon Stefan... I hear your larger point, but where do you get this IQ statistic for god’s sake? How many afghanis were tested for this claim to have any validity? Yes, they might be mostly ignorant, but gnorance and IQ should not be conflated like this...
-
Stick Stefan in the Afghan highlands with nothing but some matches and a coat and see how far his IQ gets him.

Stefan, I don’t deny IQ differences exist or that they are relevant But how much do you think you would score if you were an illiterate Afghan who had not used his brain since before madrasa times? Nor did you know what the test was for? IQ tests are not accurate in my experience
