Today I found this little gem on the usually hyper-politically-correct BBC webpage, and I'm sharing it with you because its implications are nothing less than enormous.
BBC - Genes have a role in empathy, study says - It helps us to make close connections with people, and influences how we behave in a range of situations, from the workplace to a party. Now scientists say empathy is not just something we develop through our upbringing and life experiences - it is also partly inherited. A study of 46,000 people found evidence for the first time that genes have a role in how empathetic we are. And it also found that women are generally more empathetic than men. (Read full article further down this page.)
It's very puzzling the BBC published it at all since it contradicts the long-held liberal dogma that all races are genetically the same, and that intellectual and emotional differences are the result of nurture, not nature. All statements to the contrary, according to liberals, are racist - never mind the science.
The study also indicates that this genetic difference proves women are more empathetic, another contradiction of liberal dogma that presumes men and women have exactly the same capabilities. These days even universities are discarding the science of the sexes and imposing radical feminist doctrine in their teachings, which asserts that gender is a choice, not a biological reality.

NO EMPATHY HERE - Time and time again I have posted shocking reports of how people in Asian countries such as China, Singapore, Vietnam, Korea, and others, skin and cook dogs, cats and other small animals ALIVE because they believe the stress hormones caused by torture make the meat taste better.
Torched alive in China and in other Asian countries - A culinary tradition you can witness in public food markets-
In this part of the world the perpetrator would be charged with a crime. He could also be found to be suffering from a serious mental illness. In Asia doing this is not only normal, but legal.
We wonder what kind of human being can routinely perpetrate such pain on a sentient creature and NOT feel any sort of empathy. However, after thousands of years of practicing torture on animals as part of their culinary traditions, this lack of empathy is now part of their genetic makeup. When confronted with their cruelty, they are puzzled and can't understand our concerns. A new Asian movement against dog meat may be driven by national embarrassment rather than by genuine compassion for these animals.
Aside from traditional genetics itself, the new field of epigenetics demonstrates how our genes are affected by our experiences, and how such genetic modification can be inherited by our descendants. This happens within one generation, and is reinforced over generations.
Author Nicholas Wade wrote A Troublesome Inheritance - a courageous book on the touchy subject of race and culture. He explains how, why, and where different populations acquired their genetic attributes. See links to related articles on this page.
The recent cultural shock of transplanting millions of people from the Middle East and Africa into Europe is much deeper and complex than the liberal promise of happy cultural enrichment.
