Genetically predisposed is what’s tested here, which begs the question what happens when someone is not genetically predisposed but chooses to be vegetarian?

It should be pointed out that if these studies were used to let’s say get rid of all people with high levels of neuroticism which is linked with obsessives we would probably have far less innovation in the world.

    Please could you prove that? As far as I am aware, high IQ is not associated with higher rates of mental illness, though the myth persists. IQ also negatively correlates with neuroticism.[^0]

      I didn't say anything about IQ. I didn't say anything about mental illness.

        Presumably you can keep track of multiple related ideas at the same time. In that case, you still haven't provided proof for your initial assertion.

        In case you can't and you were speculating based on vibes, that's okay. I was just wondering what evidence you had.
