What makes us intelligent?
and does Google and Wikipedia make it better or worse? Studies show that other people and tools influence our brain power as much as our own minds.

Re: What makes us intelligent?
well intelligence, much like beauty, is somewhat subjective, altough there is an almost measurable norm.

till example, most of us are avrege looking, but there is a small group of people for whom everyone will agree they are very good looking, and there is a small group of people, we all would agree have very disproportionate physical appearance, that we consider less than avrege, so to say ugly.

same with intelligence, though IQ can be measured - tests were made by people who became scholars, by doing well in school,and school is made for avrege people to do well in.

bothe very intelligent people, and people with inferior intelligence struggle in school.

anyway, i think it's a a matter of personal opinion.
what we call smart or daft.

i admire natural intellignece, the person may or may not be educated, or well educated, or educated at all, education doesn't impress me, i am quite non conformist.

natural intelligence makes people learn about the world, any way they can, so yes interent is a great tool for research.

intelligent people learn from their mistakes, change their opinions from time to time, become very open minded, become good people, only stupid people are evil.

hurting other unless it's in defense of your loved ones, or yourself is stupid, and so is any other evil doing.

intelligent people are aware of how much they don't know, socrates style, so they often question their actions or opinions, but not coz they are insecure, they are simply aware of the fact that they are not real god's gift to the world, even if some of them are, but you know what i mean.
they are aware of the fact that they are human and to err is human.

intelligent people protect the weaker ones, help people in need and try to rid themselves of prejudice.

they try their best not to judge or look down on anyone, but to empathyze, and at least try and understand.

if they start feeling sorry for someone, they remember that that's a bit rude and that really means you think you are better than that person and that isn't very mature.

intelligent people know themselves, and are aware of their shortcommings, but they are over the feelings of so much insecurity as to feel inferior to anyone, they are still insecure, but that is really the human way, they are not infantile though, and are over the need to be liked by everyone, so they can deal with rejection.

what else?

intelligent people have sudden epyphanies of really good ideas, like how to end a conflict with someone, or write a nice poem,solve a problem, or understand someone or something they were failing to understand and thought about a lot.

i think this is coz they still have a strong connection to the real god, even if everyone says that is impossible in this world....

sometiems i fell real good has inspired me to such epyphanies, but maybe it is my bf, it is probably my bf, that would make much more sense...

intelligent people admit to they're mistakes, even if they are a bit stubborn at times, but they have a good sound conscience that prevents them from living in denial like stupid people do....

they are not agressive people or passive agressive, if they are they get therapy....

they explore and shed light on their personal issues and try their best no to make other people pay for their issues, but to work on themselves instead.
intelligent people are patient with children, only idiots are bad to kids.

Re: What makes us intelligent?
an intelligent person also cannot be ugly, no matter how their body may look, and they are very good lovers.

stupid people are also very ugly, to a point that if i look at a stupid person for some time, my eyes might start bleeding any time soon - unless i look away, and i cannot imagine a stupid person to be good at sex....

sex is a profound activity, no dummie can be good at it.
