1. IQ and the
Wealth of Nations
http://www.isteve.com/IQ_Table.htm
Brit-Am perspective Note the disparity between IQ and wealth.
The Brit-Am nations relatively speaking have been blessed way beyond whatever
natural
gifts they may have would seem to warrant.
Personally I doubt that IQ tests are really so valid.
The Arabs, for instance, may not shine in IQ tests but in many ways they seem to
be
on the average more naturally intelligent than the average westerner.
They however lack something in their application and lack a Biblical Culture.
An early exponent of IQ tests was Galton.
Francis Galton
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Galton
claimed, based on practical scientific achievement, that the Scottish Lowlanders
were the most gifted on the world.
A case however could be made for attributing Scottish Lowlander achievement to
the Biblical culture that prevailed in that era.

North British Migration: From the Irish Sea to the Allegheny Mountains

"As colonial settlement thrived on the Atlantic seaboard, word spread through
Britain that in the piedmont and mountains beyond the coast there was land for
the taking. From the border counties of England and Scotland, and the
Scots-Irish province of Ulster, they came to Appalachia".
