There exist research out there that will support pretty much any opinion or view.

IMHO, this is the same type of "study" (using cranium size to explain behavior) that many top researchers during their time used to explain things such as why blacks were intellectually inferior to whites, that people with a certain brain size were more inclinde to be criminals or mentally ill, etc. All of these studies were later refuted by another study.

I'm just saying that using the size of the brain to explain _________fill in with any trait has not proven to be definitive or a good explaination. As stated in an earlier post, I bet there is another study that refutes this information.
