This same Nobel Prize winner has stated that abortions should be legal for mothers if genetic testing can prove that their children will be gay. Thank God he's in a laboratory and not in office! What do you guys think?

I don't think abortion should be condoned under ANY circumstance. And yes, I'm glad he's NOT in office.

Academics can be very naive, and someone should tell him that all possible racial differences are out of bounds for scientific examination. Just as the geocentric versus heliocentric theories of the solar system were resolved by church authorities in favor of the former in the middle ages, so possible racial differences are resolved politically, not scientifically, in this age.

Just to confirm, not wanting to put words in your mouth, does that mean you agree that performing abortions in this situation is ok?

How many freakin' "Dr. Watson" threads do we need? This is like the third one I've seen, created today.

I'm pretty sure that if you test ppl of African decent in a western country who has the same educational level as a western the difference would disapear. Much of the development of the brain can be attributed to a rising standard of living.

I agree with that. Much of Africa is far less developed than the West, so the class of people (Africans) cannot be compared with the class of people that reside in the West on an intellect level. As a friend of mine pointed out, when people grow older, they tend to get more conservative. This is actually quite true - just think about your grandparents saying "when I was little we never....." haha

No way, man! I don't want this to turn into a debate on homosexuality or abortion, but I am pro-choice. I'm not a woman, so it's hard for me to even think of what is right or wrong for pregnant women. However, I do believe that if someone thinks legalization of abortion is OK, but only in the case that the unborn child's sexuality can be proven, then they've definitely got an agenda against a minority, and to me that's not cool.
