Encephalization Quotient

"Encephalization Quotient - EQ":  Brain to body mass ratio is a rough estimate of the possible intelligence of an organism.

As I read the article about the discovery of the gene for brain size I was astonished at the physical proof of the detrimental effects of Islam on its adherents. Allow me to explain, but first you might want to read the article about the discovery of the gene at:
 http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?sec=health&res=9E06E0DB1439F937A1575AC0A9649C8B63  .
I would also like to draw your attention to the following in the article:

"(Scientists) have discovered a gene that apparently determines the brain's size. The gene has come to light through study of a disease known as microcephaly, in which people are born with a head and brain significantly smaller than usual. Patients are in general only mildly retarded but have far fewer neurons.

The microcephalic patients might not have come to clinical attention but for a dam that was completed in 1967 in the Mirpur Province of Pakistani-controlled Kashmir. Some 50,000 Pakistanis were displaced by the rising waters, and many emigrated to Bradford, in the British midlands. The emigrants included some large families with many marriages between close relatives, a circumstance that can make genetic disease more evident. "
 
And from a related article at http://www.news.harvard.edu/gazette/2002/10.10/01-genes.html  we discover the following interesting facts:

"The gene that builds bigger brains, called beta-catenin, was discovered in the laboratory of Christopher A. Walsh, Bullard Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School (HMS). Researchers there engineered increased activity into the beta-catenin gene in mice, and the mice brains grew to almost twice the usual size. Not only that, but the cerebral cortex, seat of intelligence and language, became more humanlike. 

Walsh and his colleagues, working with C. Geoffrey Woods at St. James University Hospital in Leeds, England, also identified a gene known as ASPM, mutations of which are a major cause of inherited microcephaly. Finding ASPM opens the way to genetic counseling and prenatal diagnoses for families at high risk for the disease. (Microcephaly is more prevalent in Asian (and middle eastern) nations from Jordan to India, where arranged marriages between relatives are common.) ."

So not only do my fellow inbred, mildly retarded fellow Kashmiri's have the dubious distinction of helping the cause of genetic science by contributing their small brains, they also present proof of disturbing trends in the Muslim world caused by the pedophile Muhammad's warped teachings, damning him and his false teachings in the process. This opens a plethora of disturbing questions: What exactly is mildly retarded ie are there degrees of retardation? Are there effects if any on the larger population? Could it be that certain cognitive functions be impaired which would decide a person's character and his thinking? Could these same translate into inhibiting the progress of the Muslims? Is this a phenomenon indicative of a growing trend? What lessons if any can one draw about the psychological profile of the Muslim population? To answer these questions I will need to delve into various aspects of intelligence and present my observations from living for over 57 years in a Muslim country.

Why should the microcephaly be blamed on Islam? Is it not a particular sub-group of humans with their own unique norms? Could there not be other mitigating factors? Where is the causality between Islamic teachings and a small brain? To answer this question one must understand the cultures and society that have evolved under the Islamic yoke. I will need to present observations of these cultures and one can then draw their own conclusions.

Consider if you will an experiment that spans centuries. An experiment in misplaced ideals of moral code, an experiment in social engineering in the name of a divine and all-powerful deity (who was a former moon god) whose word is to be followed literally. Consider that this is the only invariable among a diverse people covering a large geographical area with different cultures, customs and genetic makeup at times isolated from each other. Should not similarities in the subjects be a result of that one constant? Consider again the following "Microcephaly is more prevalent in Asian (middle east) nations from Jordan to India, where arranged marriages between relatives are common". This region as we all know is also called the Muslim world, and the only constant amongst these diverse people is Islam! Most telling is the exclusion of that small sliver of sanity on the edge of darkness, a land called Israel. 

So why would Muslims want to interbreed. The answer lies in the perverted morals that Islam expounds. The summary of the interpretations of these various moral codes by Islamic societies is:

1. Women are the possessions of men, to be treated by them as they please, and their primary purpose being to increase the population of the Muslims.

2. Women are the root of evil. If they were to be given rights and allowed to think for themselves (i.e. be independent individuals) society would become morally corrupt and Muslims would all go to hell.

I will not ponder on the various Quranic verses that directly or indirectly lead us to the above codes of conduct e.g "Men are overseers over women, by reason of that wherewith Allah hath made one of them excel over another, and by reason of that which they expend of their substance. Wherefore righteous women are obedient, and are watchers in husbands absence by the aid and protection of Allah. And those wives whose refractoriness ye fear, exhort them, and avoid them in beds, and beat them; but if they obey you, seek not a way against them; verily Allah is ever Lofty, Grand." (Quran 4:34.) or  Menstruation is a sickness. Don't have sex with menstruating women. 2:222 or Have sex with your women whenever and as often as you like. 2:223 or A woman is worth one-half a man. 2:282 or Marry of the women two, or three, or four. 4:3 or Lewd women are to be confined to their houses until death. 4:15 or You can't have married women, unless they are captives. 4:24 or Men are in charge of women, because Allah made men to be better than women. Refuse to have sex with women from whom you fear rebellion, and scourge them. 4:34 or Don't pray if you are drunk, dirty, or have touched a woman lately. 4:43 or Women are feeble and are unable to devise a plan. 4:98 or Believing women must lower their gaze and be modest, cover themselves with veils, and not reveal themselves except to their husbands, relatives, children, and slaves. 24:31 or Those who "did wrong" will go to hell, and their wives will go to hell with them (no matter how they behaved). 37:22-23 - The cumulative effect of these twisted and deranged teachings is that the women are cloistered in their homes, marriages are arranged and a culture of voyeurism and sexual repression arises in which close relatives start lusting after each other and families marry of their daughters to the safest choice, their cousins.

It is interesting how the Almighty Allah (the former moon God) has allowed marriages between cousins when the same has disastrous effects on the progeny. I guess he forgot about this little problem in his creations.

Islam is by nature restrictive. It abhors free thought and the exchange of ideas. After all Allah has sent his last message via his pedophile messenger and everything is in the Quran, and since it is Allah's message it cannot be changed. Free thought is dangerous as it can lead one to question Allah's directives (and in the process see through Muhammad's illogical teachings). How would this impact an entire society, this constriction of ideas. Would it not lead to decay. Lets look more closely at the process of learning.

"Learning is the process of acquiring knowledge, skills, attitudes, or values, through study, experience, or teaching, that causes a change of behavior that is persistent, measurable, and specified or allows an individual to formulate a new mental construct or revise a prior mental construct (conceptual knowledge such as attitudes or values). It is a process that depends on experience and leads to long-term changes in behavior potential.". One learns by experiencing variations in life by the stimuli of new and unique ideas. Any social order that imposes constraints on this process will ensure a loss in the collective intelligence. A Renoir or Dali can be considered a stimulus, which provokes us to imagine and to create.  Music requires utmost creativity many musicians are also Mathematicians. Dancing is an art that expresses ideas in form. Music and dance is banned in Islam. In Islamic countries doctors provide evidence of the ignorance of professionals. Consider the gynecologist who was wearing a Hijab and instructed my maid who had six children to not adopt birth control, as it is un-Islamic. The control of Islam ensures that creativity and reason are stifled; as the disastrous social engineering of Communism destroyed the socialist states so is Islam's oppressive culture destroying the lives of millions upon millions. It was easy to question communism, it is not easy to question God.

And here is the catch 22. The more Islam destroys the fabric of our societies the more the religious leaders scream that we are sinners and the only way out of this predicament is by following the true teachings of Islam. It becomes a never ending cycle.

This much I know is true. There is an evil in this world that is selfish, it feeds on ignorance, it makes us collectively stupid and lowers the "encephalization quotient" of our societies-
-the name of this evil is Islam.
