I didn't say "everybody."  Although, how is it possible that
anyone who knows anything about black vs. white IQ test
performance could know anything else?  It isn't.

 AC> Moron, modern mathematics came from white men.  Let's see you name

Why didn't you find any fault for RM saying that modern
math came from the far east?  Don't know know that Arabs
are caucasians?  Why didn't you name any names?  What
evidence do you have that Arabs invented "0" rather than
just adopted it because they didn't already have a
well-established counting system?  And, how much of modern
math is a single digit, especially when the Romans
knew that I-I=none?
