Not at all, I just read your post right before our evening walk and wanted to interject a quick thought before heading out the door.

I see, hopefully it's understandable how I might have misunderstood. It still does seem to me like people make this IQ thing out to be more static than it is, but I already shared my thoughts on that.

Unfortunately I have little hope of leading our people in a pagan reformation, so - I've had to learn with the Christians that permeate the right.

There are a lot of "pagans" (I'm not sure if I prefer "pre-Christian traditions or some other name)... you just think it's not substantial enough a number?

Both of us have been derelict in our duties, and it's gonna take both of us to fix it.

Yeah.

For sure. I did clean up my post a bit while you were responding.

I think it's observably not as plastic as I wish it was. The Minnesota trans-racial adoption studies provide some interesting insights here. In it, black children raised from birth by wealthy white parents ended up as adults having IQ's that correlated with their biological parents, not their adoptive ones.

Unfortunately not. I've flirted with the idea of attending a meeting or event of the Asatru folk assembly - I may yet do that. Usually though, people doing "woo woo" religious things makes me feel awkward and uncomfortable. I'm more comfortable attending things like militia and board room meetings. Personal flaw.
