Unfortunately, enormous text is not a sign of intelligence, so i don't see why i should even pay attention to this meaningless banter.

you should also provide evidence that genetics has so much to do with IQ (Whiich, in the the big picture, means very little, unless said IQ is exceptionally low (70 or below)

IQ doesnt equate to intelligence.

But you're smart enugh to know that, right?

I corrected your size use. Try not to do it again.

That would be nice, except that the exceptionally intelligent tend to also carry the genes that lead to autism or outright madness.

Only Scientists with an I.Q. of at least 160 will be allowed to give a sample.

IQ is a measure of possible intelligence, not true intelligence. It pretty much stops mattering once you pass the age of twelve. Not everyone with a high IQ will fulfill their potential, and some with low IQs will far exceed expectations.

By creating a child from 2 genius donors,a smarter,capable,Government Controlled Specimen will help usher in a new age of enlightenment.

Followed not long afterwards by a new millenium of stagnation as all of the nation's intelligence goes into a select few before the massive costs that come along with the gift take their tole. You create a short-term nation of geniuses and a long-term nation of austistics and madmen.

THEREFORE,ALLOWING A SURE-FIRE WAY TO CREATE A WELL TRAINED,INTELLIGENT SCIENTIST WITHOUT CLONING USING A THIRD PARTY MOTHER,WHO'S GENES DO NOT AFFECT SAID SPECIMEN, SO AS TO ENSURE MAXIMUM COMFORT FOR BOTH PARTIES.

All you do is create the potential for one. If you are having problems getting them to the forefront now, then your problem is not genetics, but training. If not, then I see no reason for this.
