FH...check this out.. never say we can't have a bit of a laugh at ourselves :)

This vid was produced about a very beloved American preacher named John Piper...

'Original Sin'.....

I wonder how much stereotypes effect our perception of this kind of vid.

Cheers mate.

"people who do well on IQ tests, on average, earn more, live longer and are healthier than those with low scores"
There are many factors who determine the earn, live or health and not only the IQ.
It is not easy to find if persons with higher IQ earn more, live longer and are healthier than those with low scores, especially when we compare nations.
Arabs (average)have higher IQ than Americans, or Australians or Israelis but you know their conditions.
Chinese have the highest IQ in the world, 114 for Hong Kong, 112 for main China but only last years we start to have some singes from it.
I have higher than 125 IQ but in my work 15 years now I clean the floor! of cause when I see others to try to solve simple problems I feel sick ... but it does not support me for more money, longer or healthier live.
It seems there is something in human DNA which play a role on their IQ. Two of my three children have also more than 125 IQ but while it helps them for many awards and distinctions it does not mean they will earn more, live longer and are healthier than those with low scores. For low IQ persons the race privileges are more important and race discrimination can destroy any advantage from high IQ.
