New York Times tries to get up to date

of related note: The I.Q. tests, that have shown supposed large differences in the intelligence between races of humans, are all shown to be biased by overlooked environmental factors:

Myth: The black/white IQ gap is largely genetically caused. Fact: Almost all studies show the black/white IQ gap is environmental. (i.e. children from an enriched learning environment always perform equally well on I.Q. tests, no matter what their race may be.) http://www.huppi.com/kangaroo/L-IQgapgenetic.htm

Dr. Ben Carson is a prime example of overcoming strong peer pressure trying to tell him to neglect his education:

also of related note: They recently found a flaw in the Canadian IQ test:

Also of note, If the New York Times is really concerned with promoting equality among people then they should dump anyone who champions Darwinism immediately: Although modern Darwinists deny that Darwinism has any racial overtones, the fact of the matter is that Darwinism has a very dark history of being the root cause of 'pseudo-scientific racism':

The subtitle of Darwin's 'Origin of Species' is "On the origin of species by means of natural selection or the preservation of favored races in the struggle for life."

Darwin’s subsequent book stated:

"At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilised races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world. At the same time the anthropomorphous apes, as Professor Schaaffhausen has remarked, will no doubt be exterminated. The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilised state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the negro or Australian and the gorilla" Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man, 1874, p. 178

In fact the 'pseudo-scientific racism' Darwinism engendered was so insidious, and obvious, that Darwinism can be traced back as a primary root cause for the NAZI holocaust:

Here is a site that lays out the racial implications of atheistic thought (as well, the site has a trailer for Denton's "Privileged Species")

Ironically, as far as biology itself is concerned, Africans are found to be more 'genetically robust' than what either Darwin or Hitler thought were the supposed advanced white races:

Human Genetic Variation Recent, Varies Among Populations - (Nov. 28, 2012) Excerpt: Nearly three-quarters of mutations in genes that code for proteins -- the workhorses of the cell -- occurred within the past 5,000 to 10,000 years,,, "One of the most interesting points is that Europeans have more new deleterious (potentially disease-causing) mutations than Africans,",,, The report shows that "recent" events have a potent effect on the human genome. Eighty-six percent of the genetic variation or mutations that are expected to be harmful arose in European-Americans in the last five thousand years, said the researchers.,, http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/11/121128132259.htm Daily thought: blue eyes and other gene mutations, April 25, 2013 Excerpt:,,, In fact, blue eyes are actually a gene mutation that scientist have researched and found to have happened when the OCA2 gene "turned off the ability to produce brown eyes." http://www.examiner.com/article/daily-thought-blue-eyes-and-other-gene-mutations Melanin Excerpt: The melanin in the skin is produced by melanocytes, which are found in the basal layer of the epidermis. Although, in general, human beings possess a similar concentration of melanocytes in their skin, the melanocytes in some individuals and ethnic groups more frequently or less frequently express the melanin-producing genes, thereby conferring a greater or lesser concentration of skin melanin. Some individual animals and humans have very little or no melanin synthesis in their bodies, a condition known as albinism. - per wikipedia
