	Dysgenics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dysgenics is the evolutionary weakening an of organism relative to its surroundings, often due to relaxation of selectionary pressures or to negative selection.
		According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the term "dysgenic" was first used as an adjective as early as 1915 to describe the "dysgenic effect" of the First World War.
		The term fell out of use after eugenic thought fell out of popularity in the 1930s, though in the 1970s it was used again by the controversial Nobel laureate William Shockley in his advocacy of eugenics.

	Dysgenics: Genetic Deterioration in Modern Populations - A Review
		Professor Lynn's major thesis in Dysgenics is that scientific evidence has proven the eugenicists were absolutely right in their concerns about genetic deterioration, and that we, as a society, have made a serious mistake by discounting them.
		One minor contribution to dysgenics is the fact that high IQ women often end up not having as many children as they would have liked to have had.
		But it should be borne in mind that dysgenics came about as a result of society's 'meddling' with the natural order of things by introducing contraception, and it's clear some sort of 'compensatory meddling' will be required if we are ever going to set our evolution back on a healthy course.

	DYSGENICS OR EUGENICS
		Dysgenics occurs not only with mental ability but also with physical traits.
		Dysgenic problems coming from immigration may have already started.
		It should be possible to arrest dysgenics and possibly even replace it with eugenics.

		The publication of Dysgenics, by Professor Richard Lynn of the University of Ulster in Northern Ireland, marks a very significant and promising beginning to the rehabilitation of eugenics.
		Although the eugenicists of the 19th century had a common-sense understanding of the dysgenic threat, it was not until the 20th century that its effects could actually be measured.
		Dysgenics is to be followed by a second volume, which will outline the steps that can and must be taken to stop genetic deterioration.

	Dysgenics: Genetic Deterioration in Modern Populations (Human Evolution, Behavior, and Intelligence) by Richard Lynn ...
		In the mid-19th century, a number of biological and social scientists came to believe that the genetic quality of the populations of the Western nations was deteriorating due to the relaxation of natural selection, the process by which nature eliminates the unfit in each generation by reducing their fertility and by early death.
		From 1960, the standard objection to dysgenic ideas was that previous surveys (finding dysgenic trends) had ignored those people in modern populations who remain unmarried and childless -- not uncommonly because of low mental ability, psychosis or a criminal record.
		Such people are necessarily ignored in the easiest and most common type of social survey that studies schoolchildren and asks them for their parents' occupations and the number of children in the family.

	A Look Into The Future (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		With the threat of dysgenics behind it, and emboldened by new technologies, society will take it upon itself to attack physical and psychological illness, which will result in a decrease to genetic diseases of every kind, and an overall decrease to the neuroticism.
		Unlike a eugenic future, the effects of dysgenics are easy enough to predict and to understand; we have merely to look at present demographic trends and assume their continuation, and to consider evidence from past civilizations which themselves were vanquished by dysgenics.
		Fortunately, dysgenics is only occurring at a rate of around 2 points per generation, which will make the timespan somewhat slower than with eugenics, better described in centuries than fifty-year blocks.

	Evolution, Eugenics, and God's Will
		The word for this is "dysgenics," which is the opposite of "eugenics." Dysgenics means human genetic deterioration.
		Dysgenics means that our children's generation will be less well-endowed genetically than our generation is, and it's inescapable that they will suffer as a result.
		Until dysgenics is reversed, each generation will become successively less and less capable of solving the problem of dysgenics -- or any problem, for that matter.

		Van Court insists that the scientific evidence of dysgenics - populations deteriorating genetically through the introduction of contraceptives and less intelligent people having a greater number of children – is more concrete than the “pseudoscience” of Marxists and Nihilists.
		It is utter irreverence to the sanctity of human life to suggest that it is a worthy, or easily dismissible, sacrifice.
		Human beings are the single most complex creatures on the planet; to suggest that our race is nothing but numbers in a gene pool would be a gross oversimplification that insults our own potential and function.

		Dysgenics, in comparison, describes the deterioration in genetic quality and intelligence that was thought to be taking place without intervention.
		Likening the eugenicist to the leaders of nazi Germany and their practices, the authors/creators of the website state, "any effort to promote economic justice has a dysgenic effect, because it only encourages breeding among inferior types, which means any ethnic population besides Caucasian," www.africa2000.com/endx/endx.html, (pg.
		Also pointed out in the website is the premise social Darwinism is class-based eugenics, where the wealth of a society is distributed according to the merits of the individuals within that society.

		In the mid-19th century a number of biological and social scientists came to believe that the genetic quality of the populations of the Western world was deteriorating due to the relaxation of natural selection, the process by which nature eliminates the unfit in each generation by reducing their fertility and by early death.
		Almost a century later, William Schockley proposed the term dysgenics for the genetic deterioration that eugenics was designed to correct.
		Although the view that the populations of Western nations were deteriorating genetically and that steps needed to be taken to correct this came to be widely accepted in the first half of the 20th century, by the time Schockley wrote, a reaction had set in and eugenics was almost universally dismissed.

		I'll only note that she is in favor of personal eugenics but condemns social eugenics, and yet we already have social dysgenics when welfare perpetuates the breeding of the underclass at the expense of the overclass.
		This is the social dysgenics as practiced today, primarily because of the egalitarian intelligentsia that is committed to propping up the underclass while tearing down the middle and upper-class.
		These people are the remnants of the Bolsheviks that now preach a postmodernist agenda that rejects science for a utopian world based on their own visions, and in denial of the disaster that befalls any nation where the genetic capital of its population is in decline.

		Dysgenics is the opposite of eugenics or the process of making healthier, stronger, and more intelligent people through selective breeding or genetic engineering.
		The same is true with issues of eugenics and dysgenics.
		Numerous authors have commented on the struggle to overcome the relations made between eugenics and Nazi intentions for a "master race." To compound this problem, eugenics has moved from a topic of selective reproduction to genetic engineering.

	ISAR - 'FREED' Eugenic Research Board Established (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		A "Foundation for Research and Education on Eugenics and Dysgenics," set up to study the admittedly controversial area of human genetic equality and the importance of genetic factors on human intelligence, is now established and operating through Berkeley.
		William Shockley of Stanford University, Nobel Prize-winning inventor of the transistor and persistent gadfly in the area of genetic investigation, announced over the weekend the addition of a famed University of California professor emeritus of paleontology as a director of FREED which Shockley heads.
		Shockley is in the forefront of a group of savants who stress the importance of genetics over environment - usually on the order of 75 to 80 percent - in determining innate human capacities.

	PINC: vol 2, no 2, December 1998 - Dysgenics: Genetic Deterioration in Modern Populations, by Richard Lynn (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Before rejecting the only solution to dysgenics -- a serious problem which isn’t ‘could be’ or ‘might be’ but rather is -- it must be firmly established that a eugenics program would actually cause more harm than genetic deterioration of the population.
		In order to do that, it would have to be shown that genocide (or some other clearly-specified catastrophe) is, in fact, a very real danger of a eugenics program, and not merely hysteria and irrational anxiety resulting from a false association with Nazis.
		They respond to scientific facts which don’t fit their egalitarian ideology by attempting to suppress them, branding scientists who report them "Nazis" and "racists," and publishing devoid-of-substance, pseudo-scientific "rebuttals," which -- unlike the scholarly, substantive, straightforward works they line up en masse to rebut -- are welcomed with open arms by the politically-correct media.

		In some of these, the phenomenon is projected to be a catastrophic event such as a meteor, nuclear holocaust, etc. In others the 'end' is perceived to be a bit more gradual such as the destruction of our terrestrial ecology.
		Some theorize that the end to progressive evolution will occur even more slowly in the form of dysgenics, a reversal of the evolutionary process.
		Dysgenics refers to the process of individuals with 'poor' intelligence or characteristics producing disproportionately more progeny due to societal nullification of the natural selection process.

		Richard Lynn, emeritus professor of psychology at the University of Ulster, argues that improvements in healthcare and an increasingly immoral society are leading to less intelligent people having more children at an earlier age.
		In his book, Dysgenics: Genetic Deterioration of Modern Populations, to be published next week, he says this is contributing to a fall in overall intelligence and a decline in the quality of civilised life.
		He argues that it will be necessary to discourage certain people from having children.

		It is due to be published in mid-February and promises to explode on the scene in a massive series of arguments for and against Eugenics - the study and implementation of human selective breeding.
		'Dysgenics' promises to explain everything I have been saying for the last fifteen years and I use here, my short discourse on Defective Eyesight to hopefully further illustrate the point: In our prehistoric past, at a time when good eyesight was critical for survival, evolution selected naturally in favour of improved vision.
		As a direct consequence, the gene for 20/20 vision surfaced through the gene pool and now stands as the pinnacle of ultimate human visual acuity.

		The U.S. government has been practicing dysgenics for decades by providing public assistance in such a way that people who are unable to provide for themselves are able to have children at a greater rate than the gainfully employed population.
		During the second half of the nineteenth century and throughout the twentieth century, the populations of the Western democracies and most of the rest of the world have been deteriorating genetically with respect to the three qualities of health, intelligence, and moral character.
		This process is known as dysgenics and poses a threat to the quality of civilization and culture and to the economic, scientific, and military strength of a nation state.

	lonergan's attitudes to dysgenics and eugenics: Lonergan, Bernard
		I am most concerned at the phenomenon of dysgenics which I believe is causing, among many other problems, the "dumbing down" of our education system in Australia, and no doubt elsewhere.
		I am aware of various purported eugenic remedies to this problem of decreasing giftedness in the population, but none of the eugenic "remedies" put forward could possibly satisfy my own sense of morality and ethics.
		But the problem of dysgenics, and its advanced state in time, seems most urgently dangerous for God's people as a whole.

		Shockley, 72, a Republican and Stanford University professor emeritus, said Tuesday he will use his campaign to promote his controversial scientific theories.
		''My participation will contribute in particular to the enlightenment of other candidates and of the public on the threat of ''dysgenics'' and the degree of suppression of objective inquiry and discussion on this and related matters,'' he said.
		Shockley defined dysgenics as ''retrogressive evolution,'' a reference to his theories that some races -- particularly fls -- are not progressing evolutionally as fast as other races.
