Fire & Hammer

A message of hope and a view of life through the eyes of a Christian American black.

For the past 17 years I have been a husband, and for 9 years, a father. These roles are second in importance only to my role of follower of Jesus Christ. My day job is in scientific research where I study the chemical senses (smell and taste). While I enjoy my job, I am in the process of making a career change: following my boyhood dream of writing. As an American, I am concerned about the direction my country has chosen on some issues. Politically I fall right of center (conservative), but I am not a right winger. I believe the most important character trait for any person is personal integrity.

Race and Intelligence

An objective review of standardized test results seems to reveal differences in cognitive ability between races. These results are the basis of a series introduced today on La Shawn Barber's Corner. Intelligence: The Last Taboo points to the pink elephant in the living room.

This topic normally carries an off limits label, and I suspect the reason for this is to allow certain groups to continue in deceiving certain voting blocks. The post gives valid reasons for discussing these differences including quality of life issues. The focus of the initial post is the trend of dumbing down tests in order to achieve racial balance: a trend I think needs to end now.

I look forward to future parts of this series and will comment on Ms. Barber's research.
