Wild behaviour in men: a genetic link?
If Brits are so much more intelligent than Finns (and as a person who
has lived as a foreigner in both countries, I think I could rather
fairly judge this), why is it that Brits simply CAN NOT learn a foreign
language? I have yet to meet a British person who can speak any language
on the planet well, save English. Whereas I've met countless Finns who
have three or four languages under their belt...surely understanding the
complexities of grammar, syntax, etc. is a fine example of intelligence
at work?
BTW, IQ tests were debunked in America in the 80s as pseudo-science, and
are not used except for criminals and mentally retarded children. What
does this tell you about your measuring stick?
