I concur with OP... The prof. that supervised my project display some lunatic behaviour. It got to a stage he started contradicting his statement while making correction on my project..even simple L.C.M he flopped. You just hear him using big statistical wordings to justify his claim at the expense of my project.. In my mind I was like "oga free me make i dey go, I no wan bcom prof like u..habaa"

japanese, indians, chinese working round the clock to enable you to be civilized, are all mad, abi?

Actually, the Japs have a high incidence of mental illness made evident by the level of suicide in their country. The chinese also have been experiencing increasing number of suicides due to depression with mental illness underlinings. In addition, statistically or by way of reasoning, the 21st century (with high level of sophistication and intelligence) is characterised by increasing levels of mental disorders e.g schizophrenia and bi-polar disease. What majority of Nigerians believe to be mental illness is when a person becomes finally psychotic. Psychosis is however just one of the end results of mental illness. Suicide, murder, sexual promiscuity, sociopathy and the increasing phenomenon of homelessness are also symptoms. In a nut shell, mental illness is deeper than Nigerians' views.

@OP

This reseacher's intelligence has made him or her mentally ill to make the below statement:

The genetic 'fluke' which led to the evolution of our ability to reason may have also sown the seeds of mental illness, the researchers claim.

The study claims that the genes which led to complex behaviour evolved 500 million years ago, when our 'ancestors' were invertebrates living in the sea.
