Intelligence has nothing at all to do with Knowledge.

I love teasing you, BB.
You post these mindboggling threads and I just have to jump in and simplify things for you.:heart:
JL:kiss:

*chuckles* Is that what you call it?

You, my dear, are looking to get your cunny spanked. ;)

What I am saying is, Knowledge is static and the less static shit you have in your brain the more intelligence you are going to have.

Knowledge: Color is spelled "Color," not "Colour."
Intelligence: Oh wow; Europeans spell it with a "u". Kind of cool...

The above example is a pretty simplistic example, but it is still a pretty good one. Also, intelligence includes *some* static elements, but knowledge, on the other hand, does not have to include dynamic elements. Using the above example, with intelligence, we accept the common spelling of "Color" and are still able to understand the European version of the word, where as knowledge only allows us to see it as an error.

How's that for critical thinking? :p :D

It's good!

Your example though points out the danger of lack of knowledge. Brits often view our spelling of "color" incorrect just as we view "colour" incorrect. The knowledge that there are two different systems in use for language, numerology and driving is what makes us intelligent.

I can see an inter-relationship between the two concepts, but neither can exist without the other. Yes, intelligence can exist without knowledge, every baby is a perfect example, but an intelligent person will not live long in the total lack of knowledge. Knowledge is, perhaps, possible in the total lack of intelligence. I just can't think of a situation where knowledge is attainable by a "non-intelligent" entity. I guess I'd say my "Pet Rock" has no knowledge!

Interesting thread, BB. It's fun to challenge the brain once in a while!:D

excellant example.


it's great to possess great quantaties of knowledge, but if a person does not do something with that knowledge (questioning it for example), why bother.

Ok, I always believed intelligence refered to ones ability to comprehend situations, learn new skills and retain knowledge.

I don't think being a creative thinker necessarily makes you intelligent any more than the abilty to memorize a scientific theorum you can't understand does.

But that's just me, and personally, I think intelligence is overated.

Just the opposite. Not knowing that some spell "Color" as Colour" is a _lack_ of knowledge. Intelligence plus knowledge means that instead of getting distracted by the revelation that words are spelled differently in different countries, your intelligence is free to think more about the rest of the sentence that "colour" was used in.

How's that for critical dialogue? :D

Also, about the Corvette... Intelligence is creatively thinking about several dozen reasons why that Corvette in the garage won't run. Intelligence plus knowledge means driving the Corvette around and picking up babes, because you had the knowledge to check the oil, and the intelligence to add oil when necessary.

YES!!

But, does it take intelligence or knowledge to get her panties off?:D :p

In my case, it takes her having had enough drinks where neither her intelligence or her knowledge is working properly... :D

I'll chime in and agree with TC42 here. If, as stated earlier "Knowledge is static and the less static shit you have in your brain the more intelligence you are going to have." is true, then infancy should be the stage in life where we are most intelligent. A newborn has literally zero "knowledge". I don't think many people would agree with that outcome.

"Intelligence", IMO, isn't a thing. It is a process. It's how your mind functions with the knowledge you have. A high level of intelligence coupled with a wider array of knowledge allows the individual to consider more variables and SHOULD result in a better end decision. (which takes us back to the "wise" issue..)
 
Intelligence is the enigine, knowledge is the fuel. Without knowledge to work with, intelligence is useless. You can have the most brilliant mind in the word when it comes to problem solving, but if you don’t have the knowledge of what you are working with you are simply spinning your wheels.

I think that when ever someone says this is right, and that is wrong, all too often the truth lies in the middle of the statement. Intelligence and knowledge need each other. Neither is valuable alone, and both require considerable work to use and or acquire.

You could say Intelligence and Knowledge need to be so closely intertwined, they better be fucking each other.
