IQ Enlightenment Test

I'll post this then read the others.

Informed and therefore able to make decisions - wise - an outward or pyramidic design built on experience, facts and/or knowledge.

Cleverness and quickness - smart - a gnat like design, built by fluidity and feedback, live, evasive, self serving, square.

read it now :)

I would have thought that wise knows that it may not know.
Smart may even think that wise does not know if wise is sure it knows.

I posted this test not to be cute as some thought but indeed to enlighten. The multitude of answers is the real treasure as you get to see the many ways that a group of people can view a simple pair of related concepts.

We all learn best by observing. My user name represents not only what I am, but what I do to learn about the people of the planet. I encourage the synthesis of shared similarities and celebrate the intrigue of diverse culture.

Again I say, "Thank you" to those who took time to share answers. All served a purpose, even those who were less than kind.

Smart is using knowledge.
Wise is using intuition with knowledge.

Thank you for this thought provoking thread. I enjoyed it. It was wonderful reading the responses.

To the OP.... how the hell do you know that your answer is correct? You seem to be trying to use "big" words in order to appear "smarter", but it would be very "wise" to not be so conceited and let others decide if you are intelligent.

More tests please, OP.

Ditto today!!!!

More tests, phu-leeze!!!!
