A study reports:
Bodybuilders have a mortality rate 34% higher than that of the age-matched U.S. male population, according to a study presented at the American Urological Association’s 2016 annual meeting.
Daniel Gwartney, MD, and colleagues at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston identified 1,578 professional male bodybuilders who compete from 1948 to 2014. They were able to obtain complete mortality data for 597. The mean age of the cohort was 47.5 years (range 25–81.7 years). The mean age during competitive years was 24.6 years (range 18–47 years). Of the 597 men, 58 (9.7%) were reported dead. Only 40 deaths were expected in this population based on age-matched data, for a standardized mortality rate of 1.34…
Although the cause is unclear, the increased mortality supports the possibility that use of performance enhancing drugs and unique competitive training, such as extreme weight changes, may contribute to deaths among younger professional bodybuilders.
Another possibility is that body building increases body mass index (bmi) and bmi causes death, regardless of whether the weight is muscle or fat. One reason might be that it burdens the heart to pump blood through such a robust body.
Another reason is that weight/height ratio is negatively correlated with IQ so high BMI people might make bad health and safety decisions.
Another reason weight/height ratio may lower life span is that it requires that you eat a lot and a growing body of research suggesting fasting is the key to long life span.
Having tall gracile African physiques may have give our species a competitive advantage over the short robust cold adapted Neanderthals because although height and strength both confer benefits, the caloric cost of the latter is much greater making it an inferior strategy.

that people which is most domesticated most loves dogs.
if people are domesticated, who domesticated them?
1. other pipo
2. dogs
for 30,000 years humans and dogs have “co-evolved” such that:

7 Signs That Humans Are Domestic Animals

.
5. Humans Socialize Like Dogs
Many studies have shown that humans and dogs experienced co-evolution for tens of thousands of years, and underwent domestication together. Dogs share very unique social and communication skills with humans, and their behaviors are more similar to human behaviors than even those of chimps and bonobos. This suggests that humans and dogs are both selected for the same sets of social behaviors. Domestic humans are therefore more doglike than any other animal. Or perhaps dogs are more human-like than any other animal?
I am a deep misanthrope! humans cannot be trusted…yet. until they find a way to get together i will do something analogous to Mug and take a break from trusting people lmao.
The key word is “professional” body builder i.e. steroids. If they were nats they might even have a longer life expectancy.
Conclusion: The present study indicates that the recommendation of low BMI as a means of obtaining a survival advantage in the elderly is not supported. Instead, higher lean mass and higher LMI are associated with better survival in the elderly Asian population.
LMI = lean mass index i assume.
look what happened to rr after he started juicing. he became a woketard.
hmm…key point.
Have you taken steroids Name? I dont mean this condescendingly towards you good for you if you do but a lot of Indian Americans I encountered at the gym recently seem to be on steroids!
It’s very expensive however so I can see the allure in justifying why someone does it!
indians are the gayest people in the world. even more than brazil.

At first I thought it was weird how Mugabe kept mentioning the papacy and showed a very detailed grasp of church doctrine….the whole time it was staring me in the face…this guy is actually a true believer.
Hahaha. What a total low IQ idiot.
So you believe in the burning bush talking to Jesus, the angel visiting Joseph, the miracle of the fish and the loaves…all these things were events “witnessed” by….his cultists…sound reasoning by Mugabe.
Yeah, Philo, Mugabe is an actual believer. I don’t take anyone who believes in adult fairytales seriously. I don’t knock spiritualism but if you’re gullible enough to actually identify with an organized religion like Catholicism, then you’re a moron in my book.

Pick one Mugabe.
also. what is your native language pill? you misused the word “spiritualism” which IS retarded. you meant to say “spirituality” i guess.
“spiritualism” is talking to dead pipo through a medium at a seance. stupid stuff melo would do.
also melo and pill are so utterly tarded they think there’s some yuge difference between organized religion and “spirituality”. it’s just a matter of degree retards. how far do wanna take it. that’s it.
You’re right. I meant to say “spirituality,” not “spiritualism.”
Spirituality is an individual, and personal connection with whatever system or god one believes in. Religion is an organization that seeks to control and manipulate people by using people’s natural inclination toward spirituality to coerce them into behaving a certain way.
You’re right; the difference lies within the scale and degree, but obviously, this difference leads to different impacts on the world. Religion is evil, and if your spirituality is based on an association with a religious sect, like catholicism, you are, without a doubt, a gullible dumbass.
Melo I take it back about you being the dumbest. Believing Trump is a russian spy is much more plausible and even totally logical compared to believing in a cult leader in the Levant from 2000 years ago with supernatural powers (the old testament is even more cartoonish).
there’s one thing much more evil than religion. no religion.
no country with a powerful religion has ever done the shit hitler and stalin and mao and pol pot and the kims have done.

i agree that so far as the roman church has used the fear of damnation for worldly ends it’s evil, but…
1. it’s not clear to me the hierarchy doesn’t believe in hell. (or didn’t. most catholics TODAY don’t believe in eternal damnation iirc.) so they were conning themselves too.
2. in the case of the roman church the “bishop bling” phenomenon is basically non-existent today and in the past the hierarchy was nothing in corruption compared to the prechristian roman empire.
3. very UN-cult like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelical_counsels
4. melo and pill are confusing those churches not in communion with rome with christianity in general. like jim bakker and other such scam artists. in america everything is for sale including religion.
cult leaders don’t say things like:
25Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep. 26Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets. 27But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, 28Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. 29And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not to take thy coat also. 30Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again. 31And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

“no country with a powerful religion has ever done the shit hitler and stalin and mao and pol pot and the kims have done.”
Why don’t you say that to the thousands, if not millions, of little boys, like yourself that Catholic church members have raped? Just because you adhere to a few thousand-year-old book written by a HUMAN doesn’t mean you have some moral high ground. You don’t need to be threatened with eternal damnation or believe that god sent his son (who is also somehow himself) to suffer for our sins in order to believe giving people a living wage is good.
And, if I were you, I wouldn’t talk about shitting in the comments. You are unhinged. Get therapy.
Sexual abuse, if there is a difference in the rate between secular and religious institutions, isn’t comparable to outright genocide. This is without even questioning whether the slaughter of millions precludes the consideration of the sexual exploitation those with any sort of power, ESPECIALLY when those in power are given control over the life and death of the persons it influences, would inflict on their victims. This is a disgusting comparison.
“Sexual abuse, if there is a difference in the rate between secular and religious institutions”
I think you’re confused. This conversation isn’t about whether mass rape is worse than mass genocide, which, by the way, has been carried out by Christians too. It’s about the simple fact that being religious does not make you more moral. That’s a massive logical fallacy Mugabe is engaging in.
“This is a disgusting comparison.”
No, what’s disgusting is your fake outrage.
I don’t know how you can both condemn religion as being evil and at the same time believe my moral outrage as being “fake.” At best you’re pointing fingers. It is irritating to see someone respond to the claim of genocides being carried out by atheistic ideologies with, “well, your Church fucks kids!” Irritating doesn’t do it justice.
>It’s about the simple fact that being religious does not make you more moral
Neither does irreligiosity. No belief by default makes anyone more moral for believing in it. Why point out such an obvious fact? That’s not at all what Mugabe is claiming, read his comments instead of replying to whatever fantasy you’ve conjured up as a straw man to represent your opponent.
>no country with a powerful religion has ever done the shit hitler and stalin and mao and pol pot and the kims have done.
Simple test of basic reasoning: How intelligent does someone have to be to interpret this as saying religious belief in itself makes a person more moral?
Maybe I should cool my head before posting.
I dont know why people on here insult meLo as they do he says sound things! I dont necessarily agree but its not as controversial as other commenters make it out to be!
Also yes Biscuit maybe cooling off would be a good thing here! St this point youre just forcing things and thats me being respectful! 🙂
Mugabe is taking the perspective of the actions of states, Melo has prematurely reduced the argument to whether belief in itself makes someone moral. There’s an obvious disconnect between what the two are talking about. It’s not that he’s controversial, it’s that he’s ignoring Mugabe in favor of arguing against his preconceived notions of what Mugabe is trying to say. Mugabe devotes most of his comments to apologia with the knowledge that the Catholic church is not perfect. Melo ignores even the sentiment. It’s a cruel way of talking to someone.
Biscuit hates me because I lashed out at loaded. But me being stupid is no reason to do that. I don’t believe I should be affected by what others feel or think about me. I do not think of anyone as my enemy. It is all just a stupid mistake. I faced harassment the wrong way. but I will not return it anymore.
You look into a personal life guided by religion where the dead are justified. Judged by grace. That a life is part of righteousness is worth something. God being for a people of a people the meek. Pure souls.
Worldly power is not the way. Power over others to do what you want with them. Is wrong. It is God’s Truth that we take care of others.
Christianity is salvation. So to ask if true, has Christ risen?
Pray to God to see if he is real. The depth of the holy spirit fills.
@melo and biscuit
One way around this is to see morality as subjective, like principles. Being moral thusly means being beholden to ideals. One can still be objectively and measurably someone who commits more crimes (depending on what you see as a crime) while following a principle or ideal.
Anime you shouldnt lash out at me! Im trying to help you just like everyone else!
No, I don’t hate you, anime. I’m sorry if I’ve ever upset you, that was never my intention.
And to be clear, calling me a Christian would be a stretch. I just find someone missing the point for the sake of harassing someone else to be, uh, annoying. When I read Melo’s comments now, I realize he just doesn’t get it. Googling, “What’s the catholic position on faith and works,” would clear up his misunderstanding.
Anyway, that’s enough from me.
“It is irritating to see someone respond to the claim of genocides being carried out by atheistic ideologies with, “well, your Church fucks kids!””
That’s interesting. Were you that “irritated” when my claim that Religion is evil because it is used to control people’s behavior, like committing mass genocide in the name of god, was responded to with “Well, Atheists kill people too!”?
“Neither does irreligiosity.”
No one said that it did.
“Simple test of basic reasoning: How intelligent does someone have to be to interpret this as saying religious belief in itself makes a person more moral?”
I don’t recognize your username from a year or so ago before I originally left the blog, so I will assume that you are a newish user relative to me. But Mugabe does, in fact, believe that religious people (specifically Christians) are more moral than non-theists. He’s said it multiple times in the past, and it is logically necessary for him to believe so since he is a Christian.
That being said, while Mugabe is referring to the morality behind actions of organizations and states, as you already iterated, what seems to have evaded you is the intent behind why he said this. He goes on to say:
Mugabe isn’t just stating that religion has done fewer evil things than non-religious institutions. He also believes they are doing this because they are Christians. He is quite literally stating that becoming Christian led to more moral actions by institutions. This is why my rebuttal led with the claim that you don’t need a religion, especially Christianity, to think, for example, slavery is wrong.
“Maybe I should cool my head before posting.”
You definitely should. Because what is actually irritating is someone having the audacity to question my intelligence when they’re butting into a conversation they have nothing to do with while simultaneously not even comprehending what it’s about.
Thank you for respectfully responding to me, I don’t think the harshness of my reaction is justifiable. I am very new here and I don’t intend to stay around for long, having to care about identities is annoying to me.
I shouldn’t have butted in, and I won’t focus my reply on defending Mugabe (at least, I don’t intend to beyond whatever I felt justify my own viewpoint). I’ll just explain my reasoning.
>He also believes they are doing this because they are Christians
I don’t know what Mugabe’s beliefs are outside of, really, what’s in this thread and what he’s stated very recently. From my perspective your argument was based off of the wrong perspective, focusing solely on what’s possible for an individual to do and decide by himself, different from the idea that certain beliefs justify or condemn certain actions as being immoral. I don’t think you’d disagree with the idea that education, transfer of culturally accumulated knowledge, is wrong, or unjustifiable, or evil because it restricts a person’s autonomy. In the same way that cultures inevitably imprint themselves on the persons that inhabit it, I can’t see how it’s reasonable to condemn religions for their willingness to control and relegate the behaviors of its adherents, unless at the same time any sort of education or social etiquette is also condemned as evil. I don’t think you actually believe this, the argument must have always been centered on the idea of beliefs independent of what sort of cultures engendered it.
I think it’s myopic to focus so much on religion as a general concept and not focus the view to what particular aspects of religion you dislike. Presumably Mugabe is Catholic, or at least believes in the general idea of it. The actual position of Catholics isn’t that those who believe in it are naturally good for having believed in it, the actual justification for a person’s goodness comes from God and not from the individual’s belief. I don’t believe in this, but from the outset, the argument was never about whether a person is intrinsically, by his own virtue, better for being a Christian. I realize this is a pedantic distinction, but I think it’s important to recognize this. Without being pedantic the commonly spouted Catholic position on whether a person is justified by either faith or works, is that it’s both.
All of this combined with the idea of “Christianity as True Fiction” suggests to me that to Mugabe, the argument has always been about what sort of actions come about from certain beliefs. It’s a historical perspective, not one that focuses on whether it’s possible or impossible to be moral without also being religious or Christian. Responding with calling atheistic/non-Christian religions genocidal, or evil, with evils that Christians have done is not very compelling. At the root, this is what I perceived as a short-sighted response, it’s much better to reject the premise and then point out the failings of Christians, which there will always be many. Otherwise, it’s not saying anything meaningful.
It makes no sense to ask a Christian, a Catholic, whether religion makes one more moral. It’s not specific enough, and not enough attention is being paid attention to what is being talked about.
I probably ironically saw in your style of commenting someone else that I greatly dislike interacting with, and it’s not wrong to say I blew up. I’m sorry.
“having to care about identities is annoying to me.”
What do you mean by this?
“I can’t see how it’s reasonable to condemn religions for their willingness to control and relegate the behaviors of its adherents, unless at the same time any sort of education or social etiquette is also condemned as evil. ”
Well, for one, I’m not always purposeful with my language. Sometimes I exaggerate. That being said, I consider religion evil because it is deceptive, not simply because it is trying to control behavior. This is not something I find necessarily inherent to religion, but in my view, almost all instantiations have been created with this purpose in mind.
“The actual position of Catholics isn’t that those who believe in it are naturally good for having believed in it, the actual justification for a person’s goodness comes from God and not from the individual’s belief”
I am definitely not a theologist. I’ve always assumed that being Christian meant believing in Jesus as your lord and savior. So to me, in Christianity, being moral is just being Christian. But as I said, I’m not an expert on that subject, and the only education I have is from church sessions I attended with my grandmother as a child.
“It’s a historical perspective, not one that focuses on whether it’s possible or impossible to be moral without also being religious or Christian.”
Right, but to me, Mugabe isn’t just commenting on history. Stating that the Roman empire before Christianity was more immoral than after implies that he thinks Christianity made it more moral. However, I have the luxury of being exposed to Mugabe’s views for a long time, so there’s more context to our disagreement than what is present in this particular thread. At the same time, you may be giving him too much credit. This is the same guy that would post pictures of penises on the blog and call people “niggers”.
But, perhaps I’m projecting too much from our previous interactions, and maybe it really is just a historical perspective. Either way, I don’t think it’s worth getting worked up over or even having a long-winded discussion about. Only Mugabe can clarify his points, so debating over what someone else meant with his words is not productive. I read enough Philosophy as it is.
“I probably ironically saw in your style of commenting someone else that I greatly dislike interacting with, and it’s not wrong to say I blew up. I’m sorry”
You’re fine. I appreciate your humility and maturity. If this were the same meLo from a year ago, this interaction would have been far more toxic. It’s why I was “banned” in the first place, so I understand that disagreements over the web can sometimes be a little stressful and aggravating. But, as I’ve come to realize, it’s simply not worth the emotional stress. And being more respectful has made my online discussions more lucrative.
>What do you mean by this?
I like anonymous discussions. I’m “biscuit” here but just another anon everywhere else, honest discussions are easier when I don’t have to pay attention to any information except whatever is relevant to a specific thread.
>you may be giving him too much credit
It’s necessary when the poster in question can’t express himself competently. I have to put words that he didn’t directly say into his mouth, otherwise it doesn’t make sense. Although more than that, his position isn’t new.
>I appreciate your humility and maturity
I don’t have any of that. I’m ashamed. I’ll take a break from here.
Well, I hope you come back eventually. I assume you’re a redditor? Do you also browse 4chan?
While I’m genetically closer to reddit than most humans are, I’ve never used it. I use less populated imageboards. 4chan is mostly just spam and those who treat it like “reddit but angry.”
There is no clear answer to whether religion in general makes people act (obviously religious people can’t/are not allowed think) more morally than if everyone was raised in the jungle. Some religions are pretty violent and embrace violence. For some, like Puppy and others. They would be of the opinion that violence is inherently evil and therefore any religion that endorses it is evil.
Religion was necessary to civilisation and development although there are examples of civilisation with no real religion like China.
On balance christianity probably has been good for Europe getting people to embrace socialism. But if you were to do it today you wouldn’t do it through a cult.
I take it from the perspective of culture genes co-evolution. Culture doesn’t operate under the same selective conditions as genes do, but both share similarity in that they’re sets of information that influence structures and strategies. A culture that is worse than another culture, in the sense that one can overpower or diminish its influence or is inferior in its utility, is going to die out, and people who exist within certain cultures are going to be influenced by the results of cultural outcomes. If a thing can be transmitted across time, and if its relatively stable across time, then it can be influenced by natural selection. Whatever is true is what’s left after the process.
I’ve not read enough about the topic to have any sort of clear defense for it. Seems intuitively obvious to me, but like most thoughts related to group selection, betrayals make it a bit of a challenge to fully accept. If it is true, then it’s probably the reason why neurotypicals put so much emphasis on giving the right cultural signals, and in participating on dangerous or deleterious cultural activities like wars and asceticism (although the asceticism part might be more of an autistic trait). Failure to comply to cultural norms is an existential threat. Risking ones life, and making sacrifices, is the ultimate show of loyalty. The anti-life of religions, as if by magic, overpower the life force of more naturalistic peoples.
The general distinction between Christianity/Buddhism and something like Taoism is that there are written texts that directly state what the matter more or less is, while Taoists, to put it in precise terms, are told to fuck off (and on, what sometimes comes, goes). Although the “directly” part is the massive caveat, there’s a lot of room for interpretation, and this is where they’re allowed to think. There’s emphasis on figuring things out yourself with East Asian “religions”, but it’s not entirely right to say they didn’t have religions, as they had temples dedicated to specific gods and ascetic practices that resemble that of other religions. They were just as superstitious. Is something like shintoism, which in modern Japan has become something people pay respect to in action even if there is no belief in it, a religion?
The widespread belief in blood type personalities and astrology points to superstitious thinking still being present in East Asian cultures, although I think for them it’s more about the allure of easy explanations than it is about genuine belief. It’s entertaining to learn things about yourself, even if it’s dumb.
I think of it in terms of whether it has a thread of logic to it, that doesn’t necessarily set its premise in a rational proposition. To get an idea, a book on alchemy I’ve once read explained the existence of mountains as being the result of the sun shining more energy on a particular location, so the earth grows. The author took the growth of plants to the growth of rocks, which barring any sort of modern knowledge is somewhat reasonable. It’s understandable how someone could make such a jump.
The qualitative difference of interpretation between theology and science is that reality is the book, hence deism. To us, who’ve been seeped in a culture filled with rational thought and a belief of a reality that exists outside of the stories we tell ourselves, it might seem obvious to view the world in a rational lens. But this is a massive leap in logic, and I doubt it’s anything most people would ever get the spark of a hint about if left to their own devices. The most succinctly I’ve seen deism being said is:
if there is a God, he left an infinite trail for us to follow the trail being physics, the working of his mind where every solution yields more questions but gives insight into the workings of it all
I consider the drive for “truth” to be a generally religious sentiment. It’s very likely that once we’ve accumulated enough knowledge about a particular subject, and have a sufficiently brilliant mind to reduce it down to its most predictive components, the reduction just is the actual laws that govern it. Perhaps our ability to think “just is” how things work.
Anthropology, biology, evolution, etc, as a piece of fiction is very entertaining to me. It just so happens to be also realistic.
I don’t know. It’s been a very long time since I’ve interacted with a community that so strongly rejects the concept of a God. Not even among autistics, who are mind-blind, do I find such a lack of sympathy. It might be the reflection of a group that values their intellectual ability to understand reality strongly. Or it’s against premature formalization, just so stories tend to be picked apart here.
I’m also not very smart. Perhaps there’s an obvious idea that I’m missing or neglecting. The idea of religions being deceptive can only work within a modern context, where we have better ways of thinking about things than our ancestors ever had access to.
I am very intimately aware of the risk of entertaining false premises. Being autistic, my mode existence is mostly within ideas. I give way too much credit to certain things. Perhaps it’s better to not think about these things? Oh, but not having the answers hurts me.
I should be programming, not giving my half-baked thoughts.
the burning bush is peepee’s sex life.
there’s only one miracle soi-disant christians have to believe in the whole bible. you know what it is.
but what is a miracle? mayn’t there be “naturalistic” explanations for the resurrection?
1. what separates the abrahamic religions from the indic religions (and ne asians really have no autochthonous religions) is the revelation claim. but this can be taken metaphorically. like moses and muhammad and jesus were just really wise dudes. EXCEPT for the resurrection again.
2. what separates islam, judaism, and christianity from cults is their leaders didn’t act like ANY cult leaders and didn’t say ANYTHING cult leaders say.
more detail: ALL religions are saying the same thing in different ways. if you’re not an autist who gets hung up on details and nominal distinctions you can see this. cults ARE saying something different…something stupid.
mormonism is a cult. obviously. why? because the book of mormon is just bad literature. and joseph smith was in it for the women.
3. i recall seeing a book at knight library. i didn’t pick it off the shelf. but it had an interesting title autists would think was stupid.

e pur si muove…and yet the dude abides…
you know who “the dude” is right?
Gay male seems to have > than 20 years less life expectancy (dying around 55-60 on average). Its weird but the few data I have seen converge. And it’s not peculiarly bad in countries where gays are the most discriminated against or persecuted.
Lots of sport, drugs and sex seem to take its toll.
PS : it looks that my comment on Never I have Ever has been lost. It was too long to write it again.
I hate to say it for fear of being un-PC, but AIDS?
No it’s not a big factor because there is no difference among HIV+ On treatment and HIV-. Even if perhaps
HIV- are massively on Prep meaning same kind of drug HIV+ Takes.
I suspect that many gays catch a lot of STD but my wife tells me there all very easily treatable on she doesn’t think that there would be a cumulative effect impacting health,
Maybe being gay is a mental condition, despite its protection by society and declassification, and theb, that would explain per se – statistically – the shortest life expectancy.
I have read that on average straight people have 7 different sexual partners in their all life whereas the figure stands around 150 for gays. The top 10% gays have more than 5k partners and it’s a figure only 0,04% of straight males reach. That’s a 2 sd average difference if the distribution is normal. It’s really a huge difference.
But maybe it’s due only to the fact that we are stopped by female sexuality and if female were horny as men, we would have the level of sex that gay have. It’s possible but I doubt it ….
That’s why even if that goes against my Homophilia, my best guess is that being gay is sadly – not so much an interesting and sometimes creative lifestyle – but also a mental condition.
“Another possibility is that body building increases body mass index (bmi) and bmi causes death, regardless of whether the weight is muscle or fat. One reason might be that it burdens the heart to pump blood through such a robust body.”
This statement is a little misleading, as the study doesn’t mention muscle mass or account for body fat percentage. A larger BMI is associated with high mortality regardless of whether the weight is muscle mass because BMI does not measure muscle mass or body fat, only weight. Since both things cause increased weight, it’s a no-brainer that this association appears. That being said, excess muscle mass, to the extent that professional bodybuilders have, would increase mortality because more blood is being forced through the aorta, causing tears, which can lead to complications. Obviously, there is a sweet spot.
I don’t know if it would be accurate to say that professional bodybuilders like Arnold are dumber, though. They have a goal in mind, and to them, the higher mortality is worth achieving that goal. I wouldn’t say it’s the same as someone smoking their life away, eating like garbage, or drinking themselves to death.
As you know, I define intelligence as the ability to adapt situations to your advantage so Arnold’s very smart in that he figured out how to get the body (and career) of his dreams BUT it might be easier for low IQ people to gain weight (muscle of fat) because of some genetic connection between stupidity and mass.
“it might be easier for low IQ people to gain weight (muscle of fat) because of some genetic connection between stupidity and mass.”
What would be the mechanism that causes this, though? I mean, it’s easy to see how being fat=low IQ, ceteris paribus. Being fat usually means lower impulse control and takes high intelligence to control your impulses (assuming you don’t just have ADHD or something similar)r. As I iterated earlier, poor gut health affects how your brain functions.
So, how would larger muscle mass make someone dumber? If we’re talking genetic connections, you could maybe say that stupid people have to be able to build muscle quicker to compete with more intelligent individuals in finding a mate. However, you’d think that hunter-gatherers would need to be intelligent and strong. So, perhaps this association is only prevalent in modern times. But, of course you’d have to first demonstrate that IQ is negatively correlated with muscle mas
Assuming such correlation does exist, I guess only muscle mass would have a genetic connection to lower IQ, whereas body fat results from poor decisions caused by low IQ, which in turn lowers IQ even more.
Melo just forget about ceteris paribus in lived specimens. The body has limited amount of ‘proteins’ or ‘resources’ or whatever the technically term is and devotes it largely to brains or brawn. Any teenager can tell you nerds have less brawn than jocks. This association even holds when comparing entire races. Hunter gatherers evolved to handle their environment and nothing more. I bet most of them can’t do calculus. It would be interesting to test them like that. Puppy even says hunter gatherers had it easier than modern humans because of a better diet.
“BUT it might be easier for low IQ people to gain weight (muscle of fat) because of some genetic connection between stupidity and mass.”
I’m interested in this answer too—what’s the mechanism?
Melo did you see the paper I shared the other day where BMI/obesity isn’t “caused by” intelligence? PP, mind explaining how having the discipline to stick to a goal and achieving it is “low IQ”?
I’m interested in this answer too—what’s the mechanism?
There was no significant correlation between salivary testosterone level and fluid intelligence in 8-year-old boys, whereas there was a significant positive correlation in 10-year-old boys and a significant negative correlation in 12-year-old boys between those two variable.

PP, mind explaining how having the discipline to stick to a goal and achieving it is “low IQ”?
It’s not. In fact I think high IQ guys might be more likely to lift weights because they understand all the important benefits of having a muscular physique. However they are on average, at a competitive disadvantage because the high IQ man’s body is just not built to pack on noticeable muscle and he’s probably too wise to abuse steroids.
“In fact I think high IQ guys might be more likely to lift weights because they understand all the important benefits of having a muscular physique.”
I doubt it. Most high IQ people will probably think it’s not worth the effort. At least the very high IQ people.
Also, the thing about sticking to a goal etc.. it probably is related to conscientiousness, which is negatively related to IQ, at least fluid intelligence.
you guineas really make me laugh.
rr has to lie about steroids’ life-shortening effect because 90lb weakling in love with arnold.
peepee has to lie about the life-lengthening effect of lean mass because 90lb weakling in love with oprah.
max schmeling was literally a neanderthal.
black penises all the way down.
@Vegan DHA
I have read that conscientiousness negatively correlates with verbal and numerical reasoning. But what about non-verbal reasoning. For one thing, numerical reasoning is close to verbal reasoning on IQ tests like WAIS as it is (arithmetic being verbal subtest).
Would be interesting to compare bodybuilder cognitive profile to the population average and see where the biggest differences and similarities are.
Also something similar for power athletes like powerlifters and strongmen.
RR,
No, I did not. Which post is it on? Or, you could just post it here too.
Pumpkin,
” because the high IQ man’s body is just not built to pack on noticeable muscle”
What evidence is there for this?
The evidence is:
1) IQ is negatively correlated with weight/height ratio and weight is a crude proxy for muscle
2) The popular stereotype of high IQ scrawny nerds vs low IQ beefy jocks
3) The fact that near puberty age, IQ and testosterone are negatively correlated
4) neoteny
5) Quote from 10,000 year Explosion: The dystrophin-associated sweeping alleles that we see in
the selection surveys (which do not cause disease) raise the interesting possibility of direct trade-offs between muscle and brain function in the recent past. We have reason to think that
humans circa 100,000 BC had stronger muscles than today—and so changes in the dystrophin complex may have sacrificed muscle strength for higher intelligence
Here is the paper.
https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.08.05.22277792v2
1) This, unfortunately, is not good evidence because the connection between weight and BMI will obscure it as a proxy for muscle mass.
I did a cursory google search on the correlation between muscle mass and IQ, and the only thing I found was this: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/327772484_The_Correlation_between_IQ_EQ_Physical_Fitness_and_Athlete_Performance
That study shows a moderate positive correlation between physical fitness and IQ in futsal players. Physical fitness would probably be a better proxy for muscle mass than BMI.
2) I mean, come on. A stereotype based on misconceptions isn’t evidence of anything, now is it?
3) Now, this is definitely evidence for something. It just sucks it’s behind a paywall, and sci-hub is currently caught up in a lawsuit and, as a result, is not functioning correctly.
4) What about neoteny? Human brain size is a product of hypermorphic processes.
5) I mean, correlation is not causation. I feel like this is just pure speculation. Just because they see some muscle-related genes become less prevalent as brain-related genes become more prevalent does not mean that muscle mass decreased to increase intelligence
You need causal mechanisms to connect X to Y. In this case there is a causal relationship between “stupidity and mass” iff (if and only if) you can articulate the causal mechanism(s) that connect “stupidity and mass” (in whichever direction you believe the relationship to be in).
Melo you talking about the Chinese children fluid IQ testosterone correlation? Here it is.
https://libgen.is/scimag/?q=Puberty+timing+and+fluid+intelligence%3A+A+study+of+correlations+between+testosterone+and+intelligence+in+8-+to+12-year-old+Chinese+boys
If there is a causal relationship between X and Y, then one thing is responsible for the causation of the other. If one thing is responsible for the causation of the other, then there are mechanisms that would cause the observation. If there are mechanisms that would cause the observation, then they would be able to be articulated.
So if X causes Y, PP, then what are the mechanisms that lead to causation for the relationship you want? (Plug your terms in X and Y.)
you goddamn guineas really make me laugh.

a more subtle hereditist theory (but still FALSE) which explains ALL the evidence would be dysgenics which affects IQ much more than its physical correlates…
1. europeans were the INNATELY smartest people until industrialization…
2. their mean INNATE ability has fallen as a result of dysgenics during industrialization.
3. after so many generations of industrialization east asians will start to fall in performance too because…
right!
the single bullet is the mirror image of tippit’s murder.
maybe.
AND i’m NOT a “bigot”.
i’m totally open minded to all theories…
EXCEPT…
the rube goldberg oliver stone theories…
get it together people!
my objection is formal not semantic.
Mug i thought you were banning yourself until PP gave in and finally admitted he was Pill.
please do not go back on your word! as a believer you should be more honest with yourself and others instead of blatantly lying to them!
The Bible is a Rube Goldberg device you idiot.
you fucking asshole how long are you going to keep censoring me for!? is this the thanks i get for providing your readers with actual entertaining and informative content!?!?!?
fucking dickhead!
I have little tolerance for abusive comments unless they’re directed against pill or Mug of Pee.
Pumpkin you let Mugs vile comments slide and let other commenters attack me while you leave me unresponsive!
I am trying to be civil here! Why do you always escalate things!!!
I allow you to attack Mug of Pee & Pill because they deserve it but I wont tolerate your attacks on other commenters, some of whom said nothing to you until you attacked them first.
What was wrong with my comment this time? I wrote it eloquently and didnt do anything provocative!!!
Pumpkin you are starting to really REALLY piss me the fuck off! Why do you always do that!?!?
You called innocent commenters minions of pill & mug of pee.
They are from innocent they attack me and belittle my intellectual capacity!
That is the minionship they subscribe to and will never break out of! It is a deal with the devil Pumpkin dont you see!
And no im no schizo I just feel violated by the consistent hate on this blog!
You start doing things right FIRST, then others will fall in line. You don’t DEMAND respect by insulting people. You COMMAND respect by commenting intelligently.
Ok Pumpkin I will take your advice but I am disappointed you did not approve my comment about Steve Jobs in your “About” section!
I found no instance of foul behavior or conversation being displayed! Anyways I will take your words to heart and make the most out of the situation! Promise.
Are you a muslim true believer Loaded?
If you were, I’d find that more acceptable than being a catholic true believer like Mugabe. Islam is basically an ethnic warrior religion so there a totally fine reasons for believing in it. AFAIK muslims don’t claim Muhammed had supernatural powers either.
I dont believe in anything. I disavow religion and I believe in no after life one life is enough and it is a predicament to sort people into categories for what they deserve after this life ends!
I was pretty devout in my younger days though. But after seeing the evil in this world I cannot be true to myself and say God exists!
South Asians can build muscle well but admittedly like Mug has said they have very little lean mass strength and endurance. They are not fit for athletics unless eugenics in the physical perspective comes into play sometime soon!
South Asians are not the unhealthiest theyre just not very athletic or strong etc.
No I dont want to hear counterexamples of individuals because im generalizing about the group not the individual man or woman who defies this string of logic!
the cia hires mafia hires unconnected assassin is not ridiculous because it happened. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_attempts_on_Fidel_Castro#Mafia_engagement
BUT even if this theory were true then it would be ridiculous and stupid.
AND it wouldn’t’ve involved many CIA employees other than dulles. if as talbot claims it wasn’t dulles’s idea but rich pipo’s idea then they didn’t even need the CIA. and as douchey as spies are they wouldn’t kill the president just because dulles old them to. they’d have to be on the dulles train. they’d kill fred hampton. not the president. the cia is a mafia OUTSIDE the US, not within it.
there’s no doubt who killed jfk. it was oswald. the only question is did he have help? — g robert blakey 2013
i would include, was he hired?
notice: The go-between from the CIA was Robert Maheu of the Howard Hughes organization…
dulles didn’t need “the CIA”. and pipo like maheu didn’t need dulles.
yeah. you’ve heard of taoism and confucianism and shintoism but the latter two aren’t religions at all and the former may actually be indian in origin…or so says a white guy american sinologist…if he has a dog in the fight it would be china. but he chose india.
but the same goes for europe. its religion was wiped out.
so today all the religions are the inventions of middle easterners and south asians.
interesting how mia akhalifa looks indian but is lebanese…supposedly.
”so today all the religions are the inventions of middle easterners and south asians”
peeps, what do u have to say of this? doesnt this prove that brown people are actually more superior than east asians? achievments count peeps, not head size.
”so today all the religions are the inventions of middle easterners and south asians
Is this something to be proud of?
yes dear.
i know people did and do a lot of bad things in the name of religions and sometimes* religions are to blame too. But if this how bad the world with religion in it, is…. imagine how a world without religion in it would have been.
Former as in Taoism or former of the latter 2 as in Confucianism? Neither are from India AFAIK. What are your arguments for it?
ok. all religions that matter are from brown people.
Presumably you mean Taoism and Confucianism don’t matter. Religion as a broad stroke idea would be a thing that combines subsistence, technological base (to a lesser extent), as well as societal norms into a coherent package and this might have started with the neolithic, while pre-neolithic beliefs and traditions likely wouldn’t have constituted a religion based on this. People talk about pre-neolithic religion but IMO it isn’t *that*. Frankly while many people may not see the world being any better without the Neolithic , I kind of can. The alternative/s might or might not have had a different analog to religion even in the broadest sense but I can’t image it being better as an impossibility.
that reminds me of my “racism”.
i don’t always drink beer but when i do i masturbate to caucasoids…or 1% of he time to the most caucasoid looking chinawomen.
the reason why i wouldn’t wanna put a ring on a MENA or south asian woman has nothing to do with how good looking they can be.
but it’s only he more european looking ne asians and native americans who crank my chain.
same for blacks. skin color is irrelevant.
hat girl in Boyz n the Hood (not to be confused with Boyz n the Sand) was worth a wank…because she anti-oprah face…even though dark.
that girl in Boyz n the Hood (not to be confused with Boyz n the Sand) was worth a wank…because anti-oprah face…even though dark.
i just HATED it when MLK talked about “the color of their skin”. STFU! LIAR! NO ONE CARES BLACK PIPO! NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!
AVERAGE SKIN COLOR OF CEOs OF…
IBM, GOOGLE, MSFT, INTC, MU, ETC…
DARKER THAN AFRICAN AMERICANS!
it wasn’t the gf. she looked like oprah. she looked more like stacey dash but taller, prettier, AND darker.
i give up. it had a low budget she was likely nobody, just really good looking.
another argument for varna and caste AND socialism is…
NO gold-diggers(/gigolos). NO hypergamy.
obviously idk how it works in india but it may be that a brahmin woman much prefers to marry a POOR brahmin man than a rich non-brahmin.
this is a GOOD thing.
because mugabe’s theory of women…they’re just manly fags.
another example of a yuge conspiracy.
google: “bigot etymology” and i find nothing regarding what i claimed.
so i think, “am i living in 1984?”
google translate: “moustache” to spanish!
translation: “bigote”
i know nothing of spanish. i know this only via etymology section of dictionary.
WHY THE FUCK ARE ETYMOLOGIES BEING LIED ABOUT?
SERIOUSLY!
NON-PARANOID REASON: BECAUSE PIPO WHO LIKE TO USE THE WORD “BIGOT” FEEL THEY CAN’T BLAME IT ON SPANISH SPEAKING PEOPLES.
PARANOID REASON: YOU HAVE AIDS!
https://www.etymonline.com/word/bigot
At the end, not much is left standing except Spanish bigote “mustache,” which also has been proposed as the origin of the word, but not explained, so the chief virtue of that theory is the lack of evidence for or against it
Unrelated, by the etymology for lord is apparently hlafweard, bread guardian.
Whether I’m responding to someone drunk and annoyed at how shit search engines have become, someone intentionally being wrong about trivial information for some nefarious and/or comedic purpose, or someone who’s an idiot, I don’t know. Perhaps I have aids.
pill personality says respects islam because ethno-religion (TOTAL OPPPOSITE OF REALITY! only an an israeli bigot jew would say.)

pill personality refers to jesus as “levantine” rather than “jew”…WTF?

it’s over. until pill is banned and peepee admits she is pill i’m banning myself…
but i have to give it to the jews. they did contribute one great thing to civilization. a quote…
we win.
you guineas really make me laugh.
from 1982. guess which one is still alive.
height is positively correlated with IQ.
IQ is associated with lower mortality.
BUT height is associated with higher morTality.

fucking “T” key!
Do you go to mass Mugabe? How about confession? Have you been to the Vatican yet? Do you say the rosary?
Hahaha, youre so adorable. Youre like a little child!
They built the Vatican (and at one point the world’s largest real estate portfolio) from money from true believers like you.
The reason Jesus doesn’t seem like a typical cult leader is the Catholic church burned all the records and books where it was recorded Jesus was bedding his followers wives and looting them and saying weird immoral stuff. Its pretty obvious the only surviving records of Jesus being from his cult followers is exactly the situation the authorities wanted. Even when his followers wrote contradictory religious text using the same axioms, that was burned too. I believe the Vatican sits on these ‘alternative’ gospels in a vault somewhere.
I call Jesus Levantine because a lot of what Jesus said was considered heresy by the jewish authorities so I can’t call him a jew as such. Also Jesus would have had not much in common with modern ashkenazi jews both genetically or personality wise. I think the Levantine label is fair.
Jesus was bedding his followers wives
And daughters
Ive been to the Vatican!
Frankly I think it probably means you have a lower IQ to believe in catholicism than any other major world religion today. But especially since in the West it became well known that it was a fraud about 200 years ago and yet you still have some people clinging to the idea of this guy with supernatural powers claiming he was sent by God to forgive the ‘original sin’ of choosing knowledge over dogma. We’ve had mass education for about 100 years and the catholic church basically became totally irrelevant as soon as people became literate and people could read the Bible for themselves, rather than having a cult tell them what was in the magic book. Mugabe is so dumb he thinks Talbot’s book is less believable than the Bible even though the Bible is obvious horseshit that a child could see through. I would rather read the Mueller Report than the Bible.
My doctor is pretty weird like that too. You need to have a top 1% IQ to be a doctor in my home country. When I tell him how jews run everything he actually agrees with me (but says its a good thing!). Hes clearly smart.
Sadly, when it comes to religion he is a devout catholic. He brought my dad door to door preaching the church to people.
Its possible to be quite smart and have serious cognitive dissonance maybe. I assume Mugabe had a very religious upbringing so when he read Nietszhe he had palpitations and pretended the church wasn’t a scam.
You need to have a top 1% IQ to be a doctor in my home country.
In the U.S., about 50 years ago there was a study that found that students at a major medical school had WAIS IQs from about 110 to about 150 with a mean of 125. I doubt your country is much different.
you still haven’t banned the pill personality.
much more recent studies have found that:
in the uk religioisty is POSITIVELY correlated with IQ and income, as is alcohol consumption.
i was raised in a totally irreligious home. i’ve only been to mass once for easter to see what it was like. i liked the bishop’s homily but the rest was stupid. vatican ii was the suicide of the church.
…but a home with thousands of books and parents who weren’t bigots.
unlike pill i’ve never been inside a synagogue. but i did know a white woman who converted to reform judaism…and not because marriage. her husband was half white half japanese…but a harvard graduate. he wrote a tome on porn you can buy on amazon.
You can’t get into medical school at home on affirmative action or donations to the colleges. Basically its 100% academic performance. You basically have to get perfect scores in all your exams.
I think you have to be dumb to be a christian in this day and age but its correct to believe in socialism. I get that. If you strip out the dogma, Christianity is basically proto-socialism.
Unfortunately, Socialism/Communism is only possible in small populations with direct democracy. You see this in the fossil record, where class hierarchies formed during the Upper paleolithic as populations became larger. Of course, it isn’t the same as what you see now, but I still find it intriguing that after a certain point, you need hierarchies for organizational purposes, which inherently leads to things like a lust for greed and power.
On an almost unrelated note Philo (and this is to you too, Pumpkin), I just saw The Thing for the first time a few months back, and I have to say, it is probably my favorite movie of all time.
Which version?:
The Thing from Another World (1951) directed by Christian Nyby
The Thing (1982) directed by John Carpenter
The Thing (2011) directed by Matthijs van Heijningen Jr.
I saw the John Carpenter one. I didn’t know there was one from 1951, and I’ve been avoiding the 2011 movie because I heard it was trash.
I own the John Carpenter blue ray but have never watched it. A co-worker kept telling me how great it was and that I needed to watch it but it just felt too out there, but now that you also have endorsed it, I might watch it next weekend.
Oh, you definitely should. I think you’re missing out if you don’t. If you do, let us know what you think of it.
How can you call yourself a fan of horror movies and never have seen The Thing. Its basically in the top 5 horror movies of all time. Stupid Puppy.
thanks for quoting me again [redacted by pp, 2022-09-03]
“economic justice” is jewish. “social justice” is uber-jewish. marx’s theory of surplus value is sometimes true but mostly retarded.
christian socialism is the only authentic socialism.
the gay priest thing is post vatican ii when the smoke of satan entered the church as paul vi said.
and it was a GAY thing NOT a pedo thing.
the EVIDENCE is that pedos are NOT more common among roman clergy than they are in other denominations.
the boosting of this LIE was an example of the still totally acceptable prejudice in the US, anti-rome.
So you believe in Satan as well.
GAY priests diddled BIG boys.
still disgusting.
but there’s a YUGE difference.
melo: what about?
mugabe: i said ON BALANCE! do you unnuhstan what that means? would you rather be one of a tiny fraction of molested or one of a very much larger fraction of shot in the back of the head and buried in a mass grave?
infra-rattional vs rational vs super-rational.
the atheist’s cognitive apparatus contains YUGE assumptions which aren’t even coherent.

mugabe: when speaking of ultimate reality, brahman-atman, so to say…there is no difference.
pill: right and wrong are just fairy tales.
mugabe: you have become a nazi and stalinist and neoliberal and all ’round DOUCHE aka a satanist.
islam might not be a great religion but better than hinduism for sure. hinduism is a really backwards and primitive religion and shows the people who practice are extremely primitive. islam is primitive as well but not as bad for sure.
Ganzir…allah quakbar!
lol. Islam is really backwards and primitive. Infact the most compared to other religions. It is still stuck in the sixth century. The way your religion talks about women, other people etc. And you people shower just once a week. Cousin marriage etc It is so primitive and backward that you were able to convert so many people only by using the sword, fear of taxation in ancient times. It is still stuck in 6 th century A.D. All it ever preaches is kill kill kill. Hinduism is millenia ahead of islam whose philosophy and answers about life and universe (assuming it even has them) have been copied from other religions, while Hinduism developed them first (the most accurate answers a religion can possibly have) and gave it to most of asia too. Comparing Hinduism with Islam is like comparing an elephant with an ant. Islam is not even an equal to christianity and judaism, forget about comparing islam to hinduism.
Peeps dont delete this comment. If you do…also delete the comment that i am responding to.
in gulf, they are even known to have s*x with their sisters. torture animals. heck this happens a lot in india too. we really look down upon them. Most primitive and backward religion than all. Even minor religions like bahai are more advanced
its not necessarily the religion that is primitive but the people that practice it that are. hinduism as a religion is far far more primitive than islam and is basically a bunch of hogwash cult-like worshipping of the most preposterous things but the people who practice are more civilized.
what im trying to say is that people who practice islam are conventionally very stupid but the people who practice hinduism are stupid in a different way! 🙂
Loaded,
“”hinduism as a religion is far far more primitive than islam and is basically a bunch of hogwash cult-like worshipping “”
You described islam not hinduism.
no i described hinduism. what other religion believes in animal deities etc. and has rituals as idiotic and over-the-top as the hindus do.
hinduism shouldnt even be a religion. if it was a philosophy it would make sense but as a religion it is backwards and disturbing! it makes no sense to believe in the things that the hindus do!
Loaded,

chirren say: hitler, stalin, mao…what about the spanish inquisition…i heard those guys were hard-core…
mugabe: [quoting wikipedia] …and all Spanish possessions in North, Central, and South America. According to modern estimates, around 150,000 people were prosecuted for various offences during the three-century duration of the Spanish Inquisition, of whom between 3,000 and 5,000 were executed (~2.7% of all cases).
there ARE levels of evil.
Youre making a logical error attributing the actions of Stalin and Hitler to atheism.
in fact my dad would say things like “catholics believe in cannibalism” regarding trans-substantiation. and whenever he had any religious “needs” he went to the anglicans.

indian stand up.
How about the afterlife Mugabe? Heaven and hell?
Do you believe on Judgement Day you will be judged for all your sins (as designated by the Bible/Catholic authorities)?
Do you think St Peter is going to stand before you and say you have donated enough to the real estate portfolio of the Catholic Church?
If Mugabe believes in Satan then he probably believes in heaven and hell.
Mugabe honestly sounds Satanic himself. he sounds like one sadistic and weird dude who gets off on making other people miserable uncomfortable or whatever.
i honestly thought he was a psychopath when i first read his comments.
for all the disrespect Mug has put into this world and all the sacrilegious things he has said and done he probably has a spot in the worst depths of Hell.
someone should do an rr like review article on height vs mortality.

Yeah I love indian food.

Pumpkin why do you take so long to post my comments or responses to my comments but you take much less time to deal with others in a more temporally concise manner!?

Pumpkin do not delete my comments towards you nor anyone else because you feel triggered! Start maturing and take criticism positively dude!
I dont mean any offense in any of my comments just calling it how I see it!
While tallness is an adaptive benefit in colder climates such as those found in Europe, shortness helps dissipate body heat in warmer climatic regions.
A textile label showing the difference in average height around the world as shown on this Polo shirt. What is a Medium size in the United States and Europe becomes Large size for Asia
mongolians dominate sumo for the same reason. but sadly have low IQs. the exception is those negro tribes shaped like a piece of paper peepee thinks have the highest IQs because low IQ, the tutsi and wodaabe.
conclusion: the CWT predicts europeans have higher IQs than chinapeople.
…scientists have also observed a protective effect of height on risk for Alzheimer’s disease, although this fact could be a result of the genetic overlap between height and intracraneal volume…
and the evidence confirms across race. that map of brain size bases all of china on a small sample from one small region or something like that.
recent autopsy data from south korea for men in their 40s vs ww ii era data on old men from london showed english have larger brains by at least 100 cc.
but head size doesn’t increase proportionately with height. thus smaller bodies look like they have larger heads.
for example:
