Persistence of Schizophrenic Genes

A recent study published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society (November 2005) and conducted in Britain suggested that creative and unconventional thinkers tend to be more sexually successful.  The researchers extrapolated this behavior to genes that are related to schizophrenia and concluded that schizophrenia confers mating advantage in people (makes them more attractive, they have more sex and more babies, etc) and therefore allows the gene to persist in the gene pool (since the gene tends to run in families).

Hmmm!

I think it is a wild stretch.

No, I don't.  I think it explains it all and clearly too.

I know this is totally made up.

No its not.  It is so scientific.
