[QUOTE=deathbringer_jo;24304710]well its an fact that the higher the concentration of religious people in a country the lower the average IQ. Also 90% of the gamers are higher developed (higher iq) than the everage person in their country. It is also stated that gamers are more likely believers of the evolution theory than the everage person in their country. Also evolution is a proven fact backed up by evidence But the path evolution has taken is a theory. Thats why they call it a theory. (I live in netherlands, country where 60%+ are atheist also it is #7 highest average IQ in the world USA is like #20+)[/QUOTE]
What?
May I ask where you found this out at?

And I can tell you and anyone else who considers evolution a belief, are not part of the higher IQs.
Believing in evolution is a fallacy.

[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;24303998]how is having a good military going to help the people? also i would rate a country based on IQ[/QUOTE]
So you would respect a country for how well they do on a quiz? You do understand that the USA has the best colleges, innovative technology, and safe businesses which aren't heavily taxed?
i take it no one on this thread has studied the caste system that schools have?

how the hell does that relate to anything
i believe in evolution but i dont believe natural selection is the only thing causing it

being smart does not mean you will be rich but being rich means u will go to a good college. 2nd i give up on this how about you guys look it up and see that im right, ok Religion and poverty both effect IQ and if you read books like virus of the mind, the god delusion, anybook that has to do with the way the world works this would be lesson number 1.
[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;24304924]being smart does not mean you will be rich but being rich means u will go to a good college.[/QUOTE]
It means you will have easier access to college, but just being at college doesn't instantly make you smarter. You have to actually study, and many people just go to college, party, and get nothing out of it. If you're poor and really want to learn, there are libraries and other places where information is freely availible.

:doh:
Referencing other books to prove a point of view that is obviously flawed by a prejudice towards religion, America, and poor people is not going to help your argument.

Its still not a belief and its not accepting, accepting something goes against Science. Nothing should be accepted, everything must be examined skeptically, critically, and with an open mind.

[QUOTE=Jookia;24283335]Evolution hasn't been proven, there's still missing links. That's why it's called the [b]theory[/b] of evolution.[/QUOTE]
Scientific Theory =/= layman's "theory" FYI.
[QUOTE=abcpea;24305244]elaborate.

But I like my emotes they make expressions much more [I]interesting[/I].
But really Natural Selection is evolution 100%, there is no outside force. I've been majoring in Life science for quite some time and have done countless field studies and can tell you there really is no mystery here.
[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;24305315]hes saying i'm dumb and spell bad.[/QUOTE]
You got that half right.
The problem here isn't evolution, it's people confusing it with abiogenesis.
[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;24305315]hes saying i'm dumb and spell bad.[/QUOTE]
I wonder why.
Am i the only one that had a teacher not teach evolution to them because they did not believe it?
[QUOTE=Jookia;24283335]Evolution hasn't been proven, there's still missing links. That's why it's called the [b]theory[/b] of evolution.[/QUOTE]
A scientific theory is something that has been consistently proven to be true. That's what I was taught at least...
[QUOTE=Monomiro;24305415]A scientific theory is something that has been consistently proven to be true. That's what I was taught at least...[/QUOTE]
It's impossible to prove macro-evolution without a time machine, that's why it's called a theory.
Even if it's accepted as fact.
[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;24305404]Am i the only one that had a teacher not teach evolution to them because they did not believe it?[/QUOTE]
A teacher who doesn't believe in evolution should not be allowed to teach. That's as silly as having a physics teacher who doesn't believe in gravity.
[QUOTE=Monomiro;24305415]A scientific theory is something that has been consistently proven to be true. That's what I was taught at least...[/QUOTE]
But they stay a Theory because they are constantly being changed and added to, you could call it the Law of Evolution but it would still by definition be a theory.

Not entirely true, Micro Evolution is Macro Evolution on a larger scale. There really is no such thing as a transitional species, only one adaptation leading to another, small mutations over a long period of time is macro evolution which basically has been proven through genetics and the fossil record.

macro evolution is just micro evolution but over time. its not like one day a fish get legs or a squid gets eyes, its slowly happens.

I realize this, however we can't prove the whole thing without seeing it, we've seen micro-evolution, implying that macro-evolution exists, however it still technically remains a theory.

ok its allot of small changes that over time make a big change. what part of that don't you get?
Read the first three lines of my post.
I accept evolution, I'm explaining why it's technically a theory.
