If you aren't going to use IQ tests you have literally no way to discuss the subject. You have to measure it somehow.
There are other ways to approximate intelligence, such as by looking at how advanced a group's civilization/society is. I know it's pretty subjective, but workable.
Anyway, if you want to talk about IQ tests, we can do that. I just feel that IQ tests aren't that reliable at measuring someone's intelligence. I remember there is a very renowned physicist, super smart and accomplished, but his IQ scores are not very impressive. I feel that IQ tests can tell who's a dullard, in the sense that if you are dumb, you will get a low score. However, it cannot reliably tell who's truly bright.
