all evidence to date can be explained by environmental differences.

It seems like you may be privileging the hypothesis that the cause are non-genetic.

And also priveleging the hypothesis that the distribution of the trait we call 'intelligence' happened to develop exactly in proportion among the various spatially isolated populations while most other traits diverged.

I don't necessarily believe that all races are equally intelligent. I just don't think we have enough evidence to say either way.
