Questioning tertiary intelligence 1#

There is a common misconception that in order to be considered, a generally "smart" person, you must have graduated from some sort of tertiary institute. But this simply can't be the case. From an analytic point of view, we as humans must face the fact that humans created the term "intelligence" and worst yet, we still can't reach a consensus as to what it truly means. Psychologists such as, Stern and Gardener did their best to contribute to this problem by firstly creating separate theories as to what intelligence is, to how it can be measured. And though it may said that the efforts of such men were good intention-ed, it can't be denied that there were consequences for such ideas. For example, lets consider the intelligent quotient. It was considered by many to the most accurate to measurement of many intelligent abilities

Ideological evolution

Ideas go through evolution, similarly to the Darwinian notion of natural selection. But ideas are different to cellular organisms because they exist in a psychological construct of mental schema and thoughts. At a fundamental levels ideas may be electrical codes communicated through nervous systems, like binary.
