Yes, this is why Asians and Whites are the dumbest races. They had traditions of religious celibacy, which while not always honored, caused lower birthrates among the intelligent, whereas Africa, the New World, and the Middle East did not.

Joke explainer: That was sarcastic, but the point is anyone can make up a plausible just so story about anything by picking some factoids to support their prejudices.

Your joke doesn't really get to the point - do you think religious celibacy is as significant of a demographic factor as urbanization? Urbanization affects over half of the population.

So if you were being sarcastic about Asians and Whites being the dumbest races... are they the smartest? Seems a little racist. Please make use of the edit button.

There's a guideline on this site to assume that the poster is acting in good faith and not to take the worst interpretation of what someone is saying.

They almost certainly meant there is no difference rather than it being the true opposite.

Yes, just to be explicit: there are no meaningful genetic differences in intelligence among human "races" (which is not a meaningful genetic group anyway).
