don't know a lot about this topic but I think Derb once said you can't make much of a difference in rasing your kids....too many outside factors overtake your efforts.... so I started to not care so much and just hoped they got the right friends.

Just as an aside.... 3 of my 4 boys are gay

Genes shape our beliefs, our values, and even our votes

Hmm. Maybe that is why France's Sarkozy is demanding that the French people intermarry with the invading Muslims:

The Engineer of Diversity
http://www.brusselsjournal.com/node/3764

"In his message Sarkozy insisted that the French people must change, that there will be dire consequences if they don't, and that not to intermarry racially is bad for the survival of the country."

NOT TO INTERMARRY RACIALLY IS BAD FOR THE SURVIVAL OF THE COUNTRY!!!

Sarkozy seems to be very "gene conscious"! He almost sounds like a man who is obsessed with race.

What's to be done to usher in the utopia? Tax breaks for multiracial children? Discrimination against whites who chose to marry whites? Say it ain't so, Sarko.

Check out the photo at the link of the "Algerian-born businessman" Yazid Sabeg. He is the guy who Sarkozy has hired as his Race Commissar.

Meanwhile Sarkozy himself marries a European Alpine princess, Carla Bruni, but for the proles he suggests shacking up with North Africans.

Yes, Virginia, there is a New World Order. And, yes, the program seeks to breed out of existence, or otherwise displace the white populations from the white nations.

Sarkozy's the guy who ran as "get tough" on illegal immigration. I'm shocked - shocked! - that he hasn't followed through.

The Nurture Assumption, by Judith Harris, debunked the idea that parents and elders are critical formers of kids' characters years ago. Steven Pinker has praised it as part of his attack on blank-slate assumptions:

Basically Harris doesn't believe Mom and Pop count for much unless they're really terrible, or absent.

"Basically Harris doesn't believe Mom and Pop count for much unless they're really terrible, or absent."

But if Mom and Pop can really f*ck up their kids by being absent or really terrible, doesn't that mean the being a good parent DOES count for much? Sure, maybe you can't turn your kids into geniuses (although Laszlo Polgar might disagree), but if you raise 'em right, you can probably keep your kids from turning into criminals or welfare bums.

I don't think anyone takes Sarkozy seriously anymore, least of all the French!

France ought to insist to Sarkozy that he try out his "great answer" in Israel first. Best to watch "great answers" unfold from a safe distance than, say, under your own roof.

The ability of Europe to locate a bad American idea and magnify it is just mindblowing.

A better SF reference than Heinlein is Kate Wilhelm's "Where Late The Sweet Birds Sang."

Twin studies are problematic for one big reason: the embryogenesis of twins is quite different from singletons, and this has lifelong implications.

Sarkozy is NOT Jewish. He is a one quarter Sephardic Jew on his mother's side. Sarkozy is not even Ashkenazi. Like many people of Eastern European background he has an ancestor who was Jewish, or partly Jewish. And like many with Eastern European descent he is pro-American because America liberated Eastern Europe from Communism not because the US is pro-Israel.

Who is Nicolas Sarkozy?

Nicolas Sarkozy, also called "Sarko" by both his supporters and opponents, was born in 1955 in Paris. He is the son of Paul Sarkozy, a Hungarian immigrant whose family belonged to the lower nobility of Hungary, and a French mother, Andrée Mallah, the daughter of Greek-Jewish doctor, Aaron Mallah, a wealthy urologist with a well-established reputation in the mainly bourgeois 17th arrondissement of Paris.

Aaron Mallah was born in 1890 in the Sephardic Jewish community of Salonika (Thessaloniki) part of the Ottoman Empire. In 1904, Aaron Mallah left Salonika for France with his mother. He became a doctor and served in the French Army during World War I. Mallah met Adèle Bouvier (1891–1956) a recent war widow born in a bourgeoise family of Lyon, whom he married in 1917.

Adèle Bouvier, Nicolas Sarkozy's grandmother, was a Catholic. Mallah, for whom religion had reportedly never been a central issue, converted to Catholicism upon marrying Adèle, following her parents' request, and he changed his name to Benedict.

Although Benedict Mallah converted to Catholicism, he and his family nonetheless had to flee Paris and take refuge in a small farm in Corrèze during World War II to avoid being arrested and delivered to the Germans. During the Holocaust, many of the Mallahs who stayed in Salonika or moved to France were deported to concentration camps. In total, 57 family members were murdered by the Nazis.

After being married, Paul Sarkozy and Andrée Mallah, Nicolas’s parents, settled in the 17th arrondissement in Paris and had three sons: Guillaume, born in 1951, an entrepreneur in the textile industry, Nicolas, born in 1955, and François, born in 1957, an MBA graduate and manager of a healthcare consultancy company in New York.

Someone doth protest too much, methinks.

Um, mebbe he ain't according the Nuremberg Laws (though Grandpa flew the coop pretty quick, and I would advise you to keep scouring Wikipedia for any low-down you can get on Adele and Paul).

Nevertheless, can you get any more practically Jewish?
