Given that I've already provided a source, your insults are even more inappropriate than they would be normally.

Wikipedia.

My point is directed at you trying to bullshit yourself around in not having to provide a source for an argument. Doesn't matter that you did provide one, even if a laughable one, it matters that you were trying to justify in not providing one, even after the fact.

One in which we all noticed.

And my insults are no different then what you have done to members here.
I got nothing to say here.

So basically, most likely factor in IQ numbers is environmental, not genetics, which is what I got from this discourse.

Yes. Pretty much all of the articles, papers, sites I have read have said.

You've got that backwards. You'd do better to do some reading on the topic than listening to anyone here; you'd do better to listen to me than anyone else here.

Half of adult IQ is attributable to genetics. The other half is due to random developmental factors, once things like heavy metal poisoning and poor nutrition are excluded. Most of what we think of as 'environment' simply doesn't matter in the long term.

So you'd agree the source you provided contradicts the point you're trying to make.

It's difficult to answer that question when you neither understand the referenced article nor the point I've made.

Nah it's the Trust Me Bro, I know everything reference. Acting like an expert on the subject while using Wikipedia as reference.
