My family is of jewish ascendency and came to the Brazilian northeast over 150 years ago to grow sugar cane in Ceara or Pernambuco, in order to make money they were obligated to convert to Catholicism. My grandmother who came from the originally jewish branch - that later moved to São Paulo - married my grandfather, Naif, who was Lebanese and certainly had catholic and muslim familiar background. It would be so nice if more muslim families of wealth invested in STEM focused education in the Middle Eastern area. That is the place that gave birth to Algebra and has been related to mathematics for millenia. I dont know arabic in order to see if it relates to latin or english in its syntactic and grammatical structure, but I know for sure that their attachment to religion and their fierce belief in afterlife is indicative of higher intelligence. In fact, genes corrolated to personality attributes have been found to be related to ones faithful traits. Popularly, at least in Brazil, the muslim community is traditionally linked to São Paulos merchantry (where there is a big community provenient of Middle Eastern countries) which is a pitty because statisticaclly their general biotypes indicate scientific appeal. On the other hand, jewish people from European countries are statiscally more prone to have aptitude in the Humanities field. It is interesting to note that Judaism justifies some social and, in consequence, economical stigmas that would naturally bring the community to capitalistical activities such as the ones related to technology, for example, in contrast to, say, academical ones.
