Seeing how half the threads lately have said. "Americans are the stupid evil warmongers who annoy the crap out of the world!" How do you measure intelligence?

PS not enough of a time waster to type out cyber slang.

I'll summarise my opinion by saying it is wisdom and I say wisdom is how efficiently a person aquires new knowledge.

EDIT: Cabbage Land has it about right. I would also add, how efficiently an individual can then communicate his/her findings.

IQ tests

IQ tests are worthless. I dont care about them, dont give a Shi* about them. They dont prove anything. Except how well you know which comes next:

They just prove you're smarter than other people.

The decisions you have made, what you have learned from those decisions, and the responsibility you have gained from them.

Wisdom and intelligence are two completely different things. Intelligence can be measured by IQ tests and GPA's, but wisdom can't be measured at all. It's a life perspective and completely subjective.
