In this blog, I often write about how our genes influence intelligence. This genetic view of intelligence can teach us a lot about the world. But, as I've honestly admitted before, it can also lead to problems. This includes encouraging stereotypes, sometimes even racism, and making us too ready to accept differences in achievement and abilities between people as simply "fate". Basically, thinking that intelligence comes only from our genes can lead to a kind of fatalism, a belief that nothing can change. And nothing good comes from that. Fatalism can lead to some pretty scary assumptions.
