No. Intelligence is innate and invariant. The only thing that varies is test-taking abilities, which do improve with education/practice...etc.


Intelligence is the capacity in solving problems. Someone raised in a cave by spiders will have hard time passing his pard exams.

Nobody is saying that environment has no effect.

Someone raised in a cave would be able to pass academically demanding exams if he was given the requisite amount of education. But whether he's innately intelligent or stupid is not influenced by whether he was raised in a cave.

I guess this is why Dolphins are beating us badly in geostrategics.

You and meWW are getting it wrong and things will not go better if we start to talk how the brain is building up in the first 5 years of life.
So it's a lost cause, and your guy are more than 5 anyway. Rip.

The resident 9 year old simply will not let up.


Imagine being this angry at a 9 year old on the internet.

Very sad.

I am not angry, :)

But nice to see that you finally realized that you are a 9 year old on the internet.
