Okey so every one has the right live and you can't choose your IQ and i not talking about disabled people here.But its my opinion that we should have a mass culling of stupid people.
I understand where you are coming from but, there was group of people who wanted to eliminate certain kinds of people... They were called Nazis.
Yes, and they were evil scum. Does that automatically make absolutely EVERYTHING they did evil too? I'm sure some Nazis kissed their mothers goodbye sometimes. Was that evil, simply because a Nazi did it?
I never said that, just pointing out that killing innocent people is wrong. Guessing you are not a Dutch Jew haha
True of course, killing innocent people IS wrong. I just think the argument you use to show this is a little strange, that's all. Stating "there was group of people who wanted to eliminate certain kinds of people... They were called Nazis" is 100% correct of course. It just doesn't prove anything in itself.
And no, I'm not Jewish (although I don't really see how that's relevant in this conversation).
I feel with our cultural differences and lack of tone due to this being typed that you might be missing some of the humor involved.
He just made that argument since Nazi's were also into eugenics. They actually sterilized people who were mentally disabled.
To me, that's horrifying. Everyone should have the right to breed, it's a basic human right. Where would we draw the line anyway? It's hard to objectively state who's stupid and who's not.
Besides, dumb people aren't the problem. Evil people are.
I can partially agree with this; however, it's hard to test who is smart as opposed to dumb. I could be called dumb, actually have been, and I could be called a genius, which I also have been called. The solution to ending people from having low IQ's isn't to stop the breeding of "dumb" people, but rather make more environments that can feed a mind of prodigious intelligence. Everyone is capable of coming up with an immortal theory in physics, like Einstein, but that can't be done if we don't nourish the mind. Donate more money to a school's science education and try to promote the advancement of intellectuals in order to provide motivation to the students. Create an environment where creativity can be found instead of idle memorization.
That doesn't mean that anybody else isn't capable of reaching his level of intellect. Granted that children can usually acquire their parents intellect even if they aren't the smartest people. However, over time, if given a proper environment to breed creativity, the offsprings of the individual will become thinkers just as he was. Evolution, just as man evolved with morality and intellect, so can the generations of a single individual.
Eisenstein was Einstein because no one could think like him. There are a ton of brilliant people out there, but you cant say that everyone has the same potential. This is a timeless debate.
I agree that Einstein was amazing in how he thought. However, I don't think that you are giving the environmental effects a fair shake. Yes, there are some people who are born extremely smart, but there are also people who can work hard enough to be just as smart.
Eisenstein's brain was anatomically unique. No amount of schooling can alter the fundamental way a person thinks. We think with words, he with images. I most certainly do think that a stable environment produces well adjusted adults, while a chaotic one can limit achievement. You would agree with me that a retarded person can only learn so much, so why is it that you think an average person doesn't have an upper limit to intellectual capacity?
It's normal. Stupidity often breeds more stupidity. Dogs can have large litters of offspring. Not all of the offspring will take after the parents. Some may take after one while others will take after none. Understand?
This is extremely immoral. If anyone should be forbidden to breed, it should be people like you. I hope you're not into politics.
I agree. But to be more specific, people who know nothing about taking care of kids shouldn't have them, but that's pretty obvious. Also you have to be ready to be tied down, and some people are out partying right after they have a child. That's why I'm waiting at least a few more years.
We are all stupid at some degree, of course some more than others but in the end, we'd all just die if we went with your logic. Give North Korea a call to drop a nuke on the world.
I'm interested in knowing what your definition of dumb is, first. What constitutes someone as being an unintelligent person? I'm just curious...
I can only relate to 'dumb' as some of those idiots who appear on shows like Maury / Jerry Springer / Judge Judy.
A recent post suggested rewards for people who only had one child eg. tax breaks etc. If women continue to have multiple children with multiple fathers I don't think they should be given additional State help. Surely the clothes and bottles etc. from the older boy / girl will do the next same sex child?
To me, these women are dumb and so are the Government for encouraging their behaviour.
There we go! I agree. Those types of people are the ones I call dumb as well. But you're not the OP, or are you? I mean, either way I appreciate the comment. Thanks! :) I feel the same way.
No. I'm not the OP but I didn't know people like this existed. I have been afraid for my son having to deal with these people in his chosen career. I imagine him behind a bullet-proof screen or sitting with a large Alsatian by his side, should they attack him. Scary!
Look who's asking the question here about dumb people? LOL.
Let's take a good look on what you typed out here.
For example: (some corrections) ... It's spelled Okay, not the way you typed it with an E. Try using an A in Okay.
Here's another. You typed "I not talking about", when it's suppose to be "I'm not talking about". Try using a apostrophe after the I, and before the M.
And where is your apostrophe in the word "it's"? Do you know what a apostrophe is, and when it's used?
Also try capitalizing your I's. All these little things will be a great help when asking a question about dumb people.
It's okay, we understand, LOL
What is stupidity?
If you can't answer my Question you shouldn't be calling people stupid.
Yeah ''I not talking'' about disabled people here either.
So...who's the one that's disabled? Baha.
It always amuses me when people type a title to their story and then warm up to their thesis in the body of the post. You start off by suggesting people shouldn't be allowed to breed and you end with mass murder.
Lucky this site doesn't have the equivalent of a postscript. I hate to think what you'd have put there.
I hate stupid people but their children may do well in school as I have seen quite a few times.
Ok,i have a 120 IQ. Im unemployed and have a long history of criminal behaviour. Depression and personality disorders run in my family. Do you think I should be allowed to breed just because im smart?
Let all the serial killers breed because of they're high IQ's.......Your not getting the fact that smart parents don't breed smart kids always, both my parents have lower IQ's than me and my brother.
I knew a guy who's parents were dumb as shit and he had a near genius IQ. This whole idea is dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb!
It is a FACT that high IQ and mental instability are often linked and breeding it in could cause prrrrrrrrrroooooooooooobbbbbbbbbblllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeemmmmmmmmmmmmmmssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think it is normal, but I don't think it's good. You should tolerate more...
Unfortunately they're the ones who have lots of babies. Lots of babies when they can't even afford to take care of themselves.
It's normal, very jerkish of you, but normal. You have to remember though that some of those 'dumb' people could have really amazing underlying genetics or they might have savant's syndrome in which their IQ is low, but they have remarkable talents.
Would you make it onto your own list of people who deserve to breed? How would you feel if someone more intelligent than you wanted to have you culled from existence?
It doesn't take intelligence to make a good parent. It does take a lot of patience, understanding, and selflessness though.
I would have disagreed with this until my friend got pregnant and she's 16 & unemployed/ out of education & did not even know the capital of her own country.
