Jews are the smartest people

[Keenan]

Of the 965 individual recipients of the Nobel Prize and the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences between 1901 and 2023, at least 214 have been Jews or people with at least one Jewish parent, representing 22% of all recipients. Jews comprise only 0.2% of the world's population, meaning their share of winners is 110 times their proportion of the world's population.

Jews have been awarded all six of the Nobel Foundation's awards:

• Chemistry: 36 (19% of total)
• Economics: 38 (41% of total)
• Literature: 16 (13% of total)
• Peace: 9 (8% of total)
• Physics: 56 (25% of total)
• Physiology or Medicine: 59 (26% of total)

That is very impressive.

Tell me how

 

[fantome profane]

@Jayhawker Soule @rosends @RabbiO @IndigoChild5559

Tell me how

A culture that values education.

 

[dybmh]

Tell me how

Education is highly valued in Jewish culture. Learning Torah, Tanach, and Talmud trains an individual to think rationally, clearly, and in detail.

Tell me how

clearly, it is Israel's fault. And the Jewish lobby that controls the prizes. All that Jewish influence...

If that was the case, agnosticism would be the norm among Jews.

So does this mean that the world does not value education as much as the Jews? Because it says: "Jews comprise only 0.2% of the world's population, meaning their share of winners is 110 times their proportion of the world's population."

In my culture, a trade or just gettin' a job is valued more than higher education. In fact, my culture almost despises higher learning and academia. It's cultural.

Are you sure it is not?

Look it up, boss. It is.

I'd heard this before, it is indeed impressive.

I know about 10 Jews fairly well, all of them are secular non-believers and cultural, non-practicing Jews.

Americans are the smartest people on earth.

viz. Wikipedia:

Since 1901, the Nobel Prize has been awarded to a total of 954 individuals and 27 organizations as of 2022.[1] The United States has the highest number of Nobel laureates in the world, with over 400 Nobel laureates.[2] Around 40% of all Nobel Prizes have been awarded to Americans; around 35% of them are immigrants from other nations.[3]

Stop! Break the pact of silence again and well restrict your chicken soup allotment!

That's totally wrong and unconstitutional, cruel and unusual! Especially, unusual.

Valuing education AND Torah Tanach and Talmud consistently encourage intellectual development.

Wow, what an impressive sample size. ~eye-rolls~

If they're non-practicing jews, they're irrelevant to the conversation.

Are you sure it is not?

Source?

 

[dybmh]

Source?

Based on our previous conversations, it would be good for your mind to learn to research things on your own. If you can convince me you put in some effort researching it, then I'll help you.

I grew up with "two Jews - three opinions" meaning that debate to uncover the truth is highly valued. In the religious arena, that is by study and debate. In science "study" includes research studies but the aim is still uncovering what is true.
