    If you are of European descent, we have nothing in common with each other. The ancestral split between Asians and Europeans happened in the middle east.

    Apologies. I used the words "cousin incest" because I was talking to Kag under the belief that she considers it "incest" and that it's faster to say that instead of "marriage between cousins"


    Charles Darwin couldn't possibly have known that children have a higher chance of defect when born of cousin-parents.

    Fair enough. Cousin marriage could be seen as such to certain ppl.

    Surely a person making a study of evolution, would have believed in devolution.
    Wait, no he didn't. He thought evolution could only work one way.

    if by "devolution" you mean changing to NOT adapt to surroundings, then humans the the perfect specimen

    No, no. Devolution is not failure to adapt, it actually means regressing. If humanity advances to the point where they can make whatever do everything for them, and then they do nothing for centuries, and gradually become a species that is genetically predisposed to have poor muscle tone and weight control and not know how these labor-saving devices work, they've basically devolved into fat, lazy sacks of ****.

    Wikipedia =/= Fact
    What is the most effective way to ensure information comes out unbiased?

    Demand encyclopedic standards and non-POV but allow all editing, ensuring no (well, little) suppression of facts. If the research is not there and sourced, it will be reverted. It also prevent the corn lobby from pushing their "corn syrup is good for you" if research flies in the face of it, other POVs can exist, but they need their sources.

    I believe wiki more than any book in the library, because every article has been edited, re-edited, and re-re-edited by various points of view. My sister used my account (thanks alot, sis) to prove that wiki, could be tampered with. Well yes, she could technically write blatant nonsense ("Abraham Lincoln ate fried beans, and wrestled with Chuck Norris. You better be careful or he'll eat you too.") but within an hour the article was reverted, locked against vandalism, and I was almost banned.

    I trust wiki as fact, except when it clearly seems biased. Especially since I can in this case look up some of the information on third-party sources. Darwin's wife indeed was his cousin.

    Was just sayin'. Wiki is just largely correct. Don't go blindly following it as fact~
