Don't mind me, I'm just a few slices short of a whole cake, and a few cards full of a short deck.
Although I have not personally read these, nor do I wish to if these are the reasons you have this point of view.
I have searched your reference "Lynn, Richard. Race Differences in Intelligence: An Evolutionary Analysis. D.C.: Washington Summit Publishers, 2006. Print."
Here is a link that shows that the map within the book showing the average IQ scores (which is based on indigenous people of the country rather than the country itself) is questionable.

"I would survive just fine. You would think it strange that men with lives of only 70 years would have any need for civilizations that need many ages to build. Or what good is it to research a technology that will not help the human race until your dead? It is because humans have intelligence, we are able to think and we have reached a greater plane of existence. No matter how you look at it, an aboriginal is still a savage."
I really dont think you would survive. I am not saying 'hey lets go and live in the outback, lets give up on technology and stop searching for cures for fatal diseases... etc" I am glad that we continue to grow, learn, invent.. etc. But why should we question how another person lives. (except if it is morally wrong or is fatal to them, ourselves or another)
And Aboriginals are not savage. For them to be savage they would have to nonliterate - as per definition 1. Majority can read, say and write english. And Aborigines have been drawing pictographs for more than 40,000 years - so they have by definition been civilised for... drum roll - 40,000 years.
savage
1. (of peoples) nonliterate or primitive
2. (of terrain) rugged and uncultivated
3. a member of a nonliterate society, esp one regarded as primitive

Hmmmm,
Must be that new math they're teaching kids these days.
I calculate all the times I've been screwed over, conned, shot at, whipped to a nub, and I figure women are about the only good thing ever happened to me in this dog eat dog life.
Fair enough, Zarora.
Do you think Albert Einstein would survive in this hypothetical jungle? And yet is he not one of the greatest minds in human history?

No, women are not. Even if this is all a joke..

Hmmm... I dont think he would survive in a jungle. But were not talking about a jungle. I dont know if you misunderstood or I didnt explain enough... But I was talking about the Outback... you know the dryest part of Australia - a desert. Im pretty sure that Mr Einstein didnt have any knowledge in survival skills - let alone spend any time lighting campfires, collecting water or finding food in any type of wilderness.
Yes, we girls are evil.
But seriously, would that stop any of you boys? Hmmm? I think not.
We could be the most evil beings in the universe, but a short skirt would make you forget ALL of that quite quickly, I believe....![]()
