Okay, what is an 'intellectual?' You're just defining a term and claiming that none of them score low because 'they don't.' You can't just set a standard like that and then try to justify your previous claim that 'IQ matters' as if IQ was even proven to be relevant to what we generally consider intelligence to be. All of your sperg rambling can just be dismissed with the fact that it's all based on random things you've correlated together, despite not having backing for any of the claims, as you establish them as absolute truth.
'accepted intellectual' as in anyone considered to be highly intelligent by the scientific community.
Also, i only said that because the guy I was arguing with made the claim that 'intellectuals' didn't always have high IQ. So it wasn't even my point to begin with. Then we found (and you have said that you read every word) that actually, all of them do have high IQ. Because IQ test predicts intelligence. Hegel, Kierkegaard, Feynman and one other were the ones quoted. All have high IQ.
i can go on
Von Neumann, often claimed to be the most intelligent person ever, 190 IQ
Bobby Fischer, 180+
Before you accuse anecdotes, go and find a person famed for their intelligence, who had a low IQ
Before you say irrelivent, remember YOU are the one who said 'what is an intellectual'. This is what we were talking about. So, no, I didn't just 'define a term' we were all referring to the same thing, and all using that word specifically to refer to that group of people. Idiot.
Also, stop refusing to engage my arguments
Did you or did you not know people who tried and didn't get great grades, and people who didn't try, and got good grades?
Why do high intelligence people score highly on IQ tests? With no exceptions. In thousands of cases.
There are, ironically, anecdotal cases you can point to where a persons intellect is not suited to the standardized test. But those, are anecdotes. The test is designed to predict intelligence in as many people as possible. The vast majority of the time, it predicts it accurately. Here you are calling 'uh no I know 1 in 100 times it doesn't. And believing it therefore, does not matter
THAT IS ANECDOTE
