I think this may offend people so i will write it in spoiler. If you get offended by stuff I dont want you to read it, so please leave illy <3

+ Show Spoiler +
I think I have figured out how to judge someone's intelligence at a glance. This may be offensive to some, but i truly believe there are two major major factors that are in many peoples lives that if they do without, they are more intelligent (in my view). Not with numbers, literature, science etc. that is all different, but just with an understanding of our world and what is true or not.

So i think these two things are religion and news.
Well, i will explain the religion first; I just think the very thought that someone could believe JUST ONE story from the bible is absolutely mind boggling. Just mind boggling. I can accept people who use religion as a guide line to live their lives, and if that is how they get their morales then so be it. But if someone actually literally believes some of the stories in the bible, then i know for a fact they cant think for themselves at all, and probably refuse to look into it further and research it.

The other is news, but not news news! What i mean by this is that generalised 6:00 pm news is an absolute abomination, and im sure many americans use TL so my example for this is FOX NEWS. This channel twists and bends news so much it makes me sick. Im not sure how to really define what news would be adequate, so i just have a link

http://www.youtube.com/user/TheYoungTurks

the young turks is a news show. If you watch ANY video, you can really see the genuine interest in bringing you the FACTUAL news. Im not really sure how to say it, but if you watch, but more importantly if you BELIEVE everything you see in the generalised news, then i think the intelligence for that person is lower


so yeh, like comment and subscribe plz

Here's the tl;dr:

'I'm an ideologue and anyone who doesn't agree with me is an idiot.'

This is the complete opposite of intellectualism.

I'm guessing your young and this is something you can just casually throw out right now but in a few years come back to this blog and you'll see how incredibly useless this blog is and your point of view.
The thing that you are saying right now actually is "I won't have anything to do with people that are religious and watch mainstream media because they are not the type of people I want to talk to.",which would be fine in itself if you would leave it at that.
It has nothing to do with the intelligence and I don't see how you can say that you are smart based off how well you can label or (miss)judge someones intelligence.It actually tells more about how you think very highly of yourself and are a condescending asshole really.

Yeah! that is it really. I do view these people as less intelligent, but i guess i might understand more on the issue later in life

I read a reserach article on "An idiot doesn't know that he's an idiot". Basically what they did was that they made a bunch of people do your average IQ test. They then asked "How do you think that you did in this test?". Almost everyone answered "Above average", even the people who did really really bad.

I'm almost certain this is satirical, but as a fellow flaming hand dude I feel a need to address your points here.

People fundamentally have different views on life. People of faith and conservatives are not inherently less intelligent than atheists, agnostics, and liberals.

Some people fundamentally believe the government should have a smaller hand in the economy. They're afraid of the Federal government, and prefer their services to be run by their local state government, which represents them and not people from other regions. Some people believe that the United States should be more aggressive with our army overseas. Others may personally be afraid of LGBT people and abortion. Being a Republican doesn't make you dumb.

Also, many people have long and difficult jobs. Perhaps someone works as a doctor and doesn't have time to do research on the internet. He relies on the evening news to present him with information quickly and entertainingly, and is too busy doing his work to do anything else.

In any case, if you close your mind to other viewpoints, you're basically the same as a conservative guy who only watches Fox news. It's important to understand other opinions-- until you understand your opponent's position, you will never truly understand your own.

Thing is that most people are of average intelligence. Probably you too. Once you realize this you will be on the path of enlightenment.

But yeah this is basically a:"Anyone who doesn't agree with mt views is an idiot" which is idiotic itself.

Dunno why people are so full of themselves on the internet. Kinda makes me sad how so many people consider themselves enlightened and yet they are so judgmental on a lot of stuff ...
