Before 1996 the SAT was set us an an IQ equivalent.
In 1996 they changed the SAT because it was "too hard" for the dumb ass brain dead data-replicators that so many public schools are focused on creating.

and then the Republican party platform in the state of Texas states explicitly that they are against the teaching of "critical thinking."

The Republican party in texas is composed mainly of super rich highly educated white guys. They have nothing to gain and everything to lose by educating the "lower classes."

i just seen a biologist explain that bonobo's are the most close to humans
more then chimpansees or gorilla's

it's true rob humans have a very voilent history
now with 7 billion there will be adaptation needed to go into that future

from 7 billion to 9 billion that is the future of the population
that is going on NOW

no prob. The Earth will balance itself, with or without humans.

When the solar system got fed up with dinosaurs it dropped the asteroid on 'em, took em out mad-quick.

ha!

for real though, humans are the only creatures on this planet capable of actually deciding NOT to hurt each other, yet we find endless ways to do so.

This is a big damn discussion topic- one that sparks a lot of rousing debates at work- and there are a number of different viewpoints along the continuum between extremes of thought. I felt like I might waste some serious time in this thread, but thank god the first three posts brought me quickly to the conclusion that I would not be missing much by skipping the thread altogether

...

(really though, I didn't read this. Is anyone bothering to take up an evolutionary counterargument? Has anyone brought up that individual intelligence and societal/cultural/global intelligence may be moving in different directions, or mentioned that in every one of us, a cool little line graph is playing out as we age, showing that one kind of intelligence never stops rising (under normal physiological circumstances) while another shoots up, and then gradually begins to creep down around age 30, never to know an upward trend again? I like that. I'm totally "over the hill" regarding my ability to remember complicated words on the spot, and get worse at it every day, while my overall knowledge of the semantic meaning behind those words grows and grows and grows.

We are such contradictions. I'm with [the idea that] FREUD [said he didn't believe but did]: individual psychodynamics are absolutely generalizable to global socio-psych-dynamics. We are soooooo doomed.

Hi. Welcome to a gast thread. You must be new here.

Good luck on your discourse. You're going to need it.

It's a shame you didn't actually bother to 'skip it altogether'.

That is so ridiculously shallow. Humans are social mammals, our instinct is to try our best to do the OPPOSITE of all those things you mentioned, and when we do it is acting on our base survival drives (food, sex, power) which are shared by all animals. Our social orders are constructed for us to find ways to harmonize our instincts (i.e. to socialize with other humans) and our drives (i.e. food, sex, power) in a which is the most mutually beneficial. If it were human nature simply to maim, kill, hurt, and destroy, then simply put, there would already be nothing..

If animal instincts were the same as intelligence, we'd sniff each other's ass before speaking.

Who will sniff my ass?? Is it you, rocketman?

people can feel good, things can go better
when there are intelligent solutions then i find humans must follow them for the human benefit

that is the reason for building something for everyone, family, friends, woman and childeren
with these people we live 24 h over 24 h till the end of time

why not live this life to the max intelligent if the expected result is that everyone feels better, lives better and get's older
that people before they die can say " i had a great and wonderfull life "

I think humans have evolved to be beyond instinct, but it takes force of will. Instinct says to get what you can when you can and fuck anyone else. Most animals live on instinct alone, as far as we know. our closest relatives, the chimpanzees of all types, wage war, kill, rape, maim, and commit infanticide on the reg.

so do humans.

the whole history of humans is one group being subjugated by another, then, when the current powers are usurped, the new elite go right ahead and start to subjugate someone else.

You would think as a collective group humans would grow out of this, but look at israel. For thousands of years, a subjugated group is nearly exterminated by those that wield power. They are granted a sovereign nation after WWII. what are they doing now? Subjugating and killing those they deem unworthy.

Pessimism abounds.
