Re: What makes you intelligent?


and why u think I was throwing word after you?

i noticed that as things were said the assumption was that who was reading it wasnt going understand the explanation. When it was clear some did know and could challenge what was said then the argument shifts to another explanation. And so forth. Common tactic.


not alot of intelligence in that approach.

that statement about them not being able to discuss it is a lie. The question is who is willing to listen instead of dismissing their understanding as babbling from a bunch of natives.

That is what I am intrested in.
Not that it works, or don't work,but why. </div></div>
Interesting... so who is lacking then?

1: The scientificos who are baffled and seek clarification from the Aborigines?
2: The Aborigines who aren't baffled but don't discuss in a way the scientificos can clarify? </div></div> </div></div> Of course they canh discuss it. anybody can discuss any tpoic. It is just that the sort of information one may be seking , would not be available to them. So they know the herb. they know how to prepare it, but they don't lnow th emechanics why it works. That is what the scientists are seeking.a lot of science is the study of why and how things work. Not merely that it works.

I covered that earlier when I discussed the near illiterate Jamaicans who has the nature part of it, but didn;t get thenurture part. They are equally as intelligent,as those who get both. He is just not as educated.

BP, your comments are cracking me up! I wouldn't take the test again cuz what others think about my intelligence means absolutely nothing to me, so no need to join a group of &quot;wicked smaaaht people.&quot; I'm just glad I got a little of the common sense part!

I used to wait tables in a world famous scientific community, and wait staff would listen to long-winded discussions about how seasonal ocean currents affect the mating habits of lobsters by people who couldn't seem to match their socks or come out of the rain. All that brilliance could have been lost just by them forgetting to look both ways before they crossed the street. </div></div> yet out of those booring arguments will come some really beneficial development that employes many, save lots of lives, a entertain many more.

the problem is the part of the car that really makes it tick, is not very attractive. nobody want to see it or have anythingto do with it, but they all want the benefits of the engine.

You mean that you don't realize that people does things in relation to how fast they think?

not really Morpheus that was only half of what I was getting at so it wasnt that specific- the first reference that is.

the point is to take a step back before running your (universal) mouth instead of assuming others are not as swift as you (universal) feel you are.

my point was a little less concrete than it was taken

</div></div> funny thing is i don;t have to take comments personal.
and the majority of times I can't. since I know that what a person states is really theirs, and only becomes the property of of those who accepts it.

This down side isnt often discussed, it needs to be studied. </div></div> It is true that a abnormally high percentage of psychotics have very high IQ's but my opinion is that the rate of activity in people with higher IQ is just slightly lower than those who are psychotic. In that craqy oeiople has a very high rATE of thought process. that is why the meds usually slow them down.

A man enters a bar and orders a drink. The bar has a robot bartender. The robot serves him a perfectly prepared cocktail, and then asks him, <span style="font-family: 'Fixedsys'">&quot;What's your IQ?&quot; </span>The man replies <span style="font-weight: bold">&quot;150.&quot; </span>The robot proceeds to make conversation about global warming factors, quantum physics and spirituality, biomimicry, environmental interconnectedness, string theory, nano-technology, and sexual proclivities.

The customer is impressed and thinks, &quot;This is really cool.&quot; He decides to test the robot. He walks out of the bar, turns around, and comes back in for another drink. Again, the robot serves him the perfectly-prepared drink and asks him, <span style="font-family: 'Fixedsys'">&quot;What's your IQ?&quot;</span> The man responds, &quot;<span style="font-weight: bold">about 100</span>.&quot; Immediately, the robot starts talking, but this time about football, NASCAR, baseball, supermodels, favorite fast foods, guns, and women's breasts.

Really impressed now, the man decides to give the robot one more test. He heads out and returns, yet again. The robot serves him and asks,<span style="font-family: 'Fixedsys'"> &quot;What's your IQ?&quot; </span>The man replies, &quot;<span style="font-weight: bold">50, I think</span>.&quot;

The robot says, really slowly, &quot;So.... ya gonna vote Republican again?&quot;
