IQ points.

Have you noticed the more you think you have, the more retarded you behave?

Because not a single person named five. Why would they name alcoholism when there are way more prominent ones?

Cystic fibrosis
Tay-Sachs
Sickle cell anemia
Hemophilia
Downs (I'm not sure why you say it isn't related)
Osteogenesis imperfecta
Abetalipoproteinemia
Prader-Willi and Angelman syndromes

Well I consider any genotype that predisposes you to a disorder to be a heritable genetic disorder.

Technically those forms of cancer I'm speaking of don't instantly give you cancer but I would still consider them heritable diseases as the person carrying that genotype will, almost always, develop a form of the disease.

In their case, they give you "one strike" which sets up some cells to mutate and become metastatic more readily upon a "second strike." With a wild type set, it two "strikes" are needed to get to a similar state.
