Hmm well my experiences tell me otherwise. I was in Virginia for vacation and I stayed at this hotel where I met a bunch of other kids. One of the kids asked me something about a Christian holidy and I told him I was Jewish. He replied, "You're Jewish?!?" He had a really confused face. And I was like, "Um, yeah...". Then he asked me why I don't have a big nose and a nasal voice. At this point I realised something was up so I asked him if he had ever met a Jew. Just as I expected, he said no because none lived in his area. He then explained that he always pictured Jews with big noses and wearing all black. I can't blame him for the stereotyping though because he's been isolated his whole life.
It's not that hard to believe. Look at all the places where Jews arn't even present in the USA.
BULLSHIT. Asians are no smarter than anyone else it is just their culture, in their immigrant population in America, respects intelligence and hard work, at this period in time at least, more than Westerners. Jews are no smarter than anyone, it is just their culture is hardwired different. It also helps there are already a lot of Jews in high places and with money. It helps young Jews network better if their parents have cash or connections and they have someting in common with complete strangers that some wouldnt have, their Jewishness.
I would love any empirical evidence to this smart Jew shit.
Exacltly their culture is hardwired different.
The horrendous conditions that the Church forced Jews to live in created a selective pressure for intelligence. Unlike their neighbors, who were busy demonstrating their prowess on the battlefield so that 21st century moviegoers could get a distorted appreciation of their exploits in The Kingdom of Heaven, Jews were forced to use their heads to survive, in fields like commerce and finance. Along with the good changes, some nasty chromosomal stuff came along for the ride. The way the researchers see it, the connection is not accidental. Natural selection tweaked the gene pool, to favor some high performance souping up of the old gray matter. In some cases, however, having too much of a good thing backfired, and when two of these recessive genes get together, they produce a variety of conditions like Gaucher and Niemann-Pick. (A group at Shaarei Tzedek in Jerusalem found that its Gaucher patients – representing in effect the entire Gaucher population of Israel – included engineers and scientists far in excess of what one would expect in an equivalent number of Israelis taken from the general population.) One of the researchers sees a parallel to a computer phenomenon called “overclocking,” or pushing a chip’s capacity beyond its safe rating. Sometimes it works beautifully; at other times, the system crashes.
Natural Selection, yo! That also explains why there are barely any decent Jewish sports players :\
