You see, Wilson, like Gallant in Highlights magazine cartoons, was someone who looked at the evidence, and used logic and the scientific method to lead him to his conclusions. He only sought the truth. Which in his case, was that the white race is superior to the black race.

Gould and Lewontin were like Goofus. They were just engaging in academic politics.

Easy case to win when one side is all science and logic and the other is "political". Not sure why everyone hasn't come around.

You've been asked several times to provide a quote from Wilson's published works where he said this, both in this thread and previous ones.

So far you have not.

I think you should either provide such a quote or retract this claim.
