What does it mean that the brain "obeys the same physiological rules" that the body obeys? This point is incoherent.

My point is that yes, there is a genetic aspect to intelligence (duh), but that doesn't mean that there is a genetic component to how "fast" your brain is or how much "memory" you have. These could be emergent phenomena - not directly determinable.

Please tell me more specifically how my prejudices are clouding what I'm reading/saying. You didn't follow this point up.
