Measuring IQ

All big Errors about measuring Intelligence per IQ


I have recently loaded down a listing called "The List of the most successful IQ in History". There we all can learn a lot about intelligence and measuring it. But believe me, dear Readers, the scientists in intelligence have not many valid ideas about intelligence and even less about an acceptable Intelligence Quotient - or tout court "IQ".

Look at this remarkable piece of consciousness and recognition:

A.  Listing of most intelligent heads of History

According to this "Recognizing the best in IQ" we find for best reasons as first: Goethe IQ 183, second Leibniz 178, third 173 Grotius and Wolsey, forth Blaise Pascal and Sarpi with 168. With IQ 164 about ten persons like Newton, Laplace and Voltaire. Come some other 10 with 159 being: Galileo Galilei, da Vinci, Mirabeau, Humboldt, Campanella. And already it goes down the drain, many times for no reasons at all, with the real geniuses like: Descartes, Kant, Milton, Michelangelo, Bacon, Madame de Stael, Kepler, Spinoza etc. 150 to 154 IQ.

And not so high geniuses is one who predicted today's downfall in ecology: Jean-Jacques Rousseau 126 and a real highly gifted person: Franklin 126. And they are comparable to following persons! Napoleon 122 (just as Dschingis Khan and Mao), Washington 118 and a lot of generals and other admirals being mentioned as being near to "genius" level. The truth: Rousseau should be 200 and Napoleon and the other war-gurgles below 75. - Worse: They forgot Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin and some other poor minds with IQ below 50.

And have a look in the Listing of the most brilliant heads still alive today or recently gone:

Albert Einstein IQ 160, Hawkins 160, Pauling 170, Wittgenstein 190 and my beloved Bertrand Russell only 180. - More to the point come GW Bush with 91, Bill Clinton with 182 (!), Hilary with 140, Kennedy with 117 and Tricky Nixon with 143. Now seriously: These jokes were found as a copy of scientific work, as most famous internet-listing on IQ of this Earth.

Geniuses are some amateurs or home constructors with name Bill Gates and Paul Allen, because according to scales of US American Cretins, these cash-machines can get 160 IQ points! Marylin Vos Savant, of which I never heard any new theory, says to have 228 points. Jesus, where was God when this dullness in science came on Earth?

Look at some other geniuses: Madonna IQ 140, Jane Mansfield 149, Brigitte Bardot 79, Andy Warhol, Judie Foster 132 and Marilyn Monroe 71. Well, who ever had a brain in his head knows: A truthful listing must be complete contrary to this horrid measuring of IQ.

This brings up the question of measuring intelligence by any sort of IQ and their listings.

B. How is IQ measured?

This brings the first catastrophe: As we see later on in this text, intelligence can not be measured at all because we have no basic knowledge what intelligence is. Can it be the piecemeal-idiocies of specialist, the little-bits of the usual Nobel Prize holders? Can it be the art of finding just one important thought during a whole lifetime? Can it be to sell its own personality to the rest of scientific idiots, who mean by error to be geniuses? Or is it the art of understanding the complexity of universal chaos in all respects of politics, economics, philosophy, arts and sciences? Is intelligence without universal touch thinkable at all?

I don't think so. How we just have learnt: To play chess, football, golf or tennis can be called an idiot of specialisation, not more. And this is valid for 99 percent of folks habits and pre-occupations on this planet. Don't look out twice for more. To work on new thoughts of universal importance is so seldom as a fish falling from heaven.

Under these circumstances, it is a complete failure to measure IQ by schemes, computer programs, pictures, geometrical figures, reading a few sentences of a prosaic nothing or believing that publishing a lot for blind matters out of mice-brains of universities would prove higher intelligence. This is an absolute error or even worse: A discrimination of real intelligence on a truly high scale-basis of intellect.

C. Were the major geniuses of the world recognized in former times?

This internet scrap brings the answer itself: Only those "geniuses" who understood to sell themselves best, who were worldwide known, considered, many times by error, to be best, still at life-time, have a chance of being known and come on a listing of high IQ. So, at least over 90 percent of the most intelligent folks on Earth will never have been known during life-time or later on.

Proof: I know personally farmers who talk ten times more intelligently than any CEO I met in my profession during a whole life. To say the truth: None of the idiots in banks, insurances, industries and in the service or consulting business, earning millions in salary, were on the height of children more than 10 years of age. Absolutely true. The manager-type of men do know nothing then to sell them, like GW Bush does, to sell for no good reasons at all their own person, winning other people for the major part of their intellectual work, be surrounded by hundreds of consultants and intelligent employees, and finally bringing the company to its own bankruptcy. That's the truth about the Abzockers of this World. Don't look out twice for more information on them. You won't find them, nowhere.

We can assume that the major part of real intelligent people in Asia, Africa, Russia and South America, with highest genius-factors were not known, because of lack of education and the possibility to express themselves. We may assume that even in Europe, covered through by Goethe, Leibniz, Machiavelli, Kant, Nietzsche, Berkeley, Voltaire etc., humans of the importance of Descartes, Pascal, Rousseau or even higher in intellect, were not recognized by their times since 3000 years - and still today remain dead characters or letters.

And be absolutely sure of this: The universal geniuses were never recognized because "lower" IQ did not recognize them and their specific genius did at no times make the music. Only average "geniuses" have in fact a chance of being heard in a world with very low average IQ all together. Thus, the second and third row in intelligence only made clear who would be allowed to be the highest brains of this world (see my "Steps of Thoughts", explaining the mechanics).

D. Major errors about intelligence

1.  Measuring ONE (achievement) for ALL (universal IQ). This is to say: Who invents one simple thing as first, which may prove to destroy later on the geo-sphere of our Earth, is by all means a "genius" - and this is valid for almost all Nobel Prize Winners, even worse for entrepreneurs, generating lots of cash and creating "Social and culture Funds" of any sorts.

2.  Measuring the brain streams by this new science-industry of research, in favour of humans or animals living nowadays, is meant to be genial. However, this science is pure junk because the content of brains cannot be measured, nor the value of thoughts, nor the universality of brain-streams, nor the quality of intellect nor newness or importance, nor the uniqueness of thinking - and thus of intelligence as such.

3.  It is an idiocy of meaning that chess or other given specialisation by lots of learning by-heart, like a computer, some Vos Savant syndromes, would be equal to intelligence. It is not. An intelligent person would never be satisfied to cover just one per mille of overall knowledge of humanity.

4. Intelligence can not be qualified. There is a difference between a cretin and Einstein, as I showed in my text "Step of thoughts". In the great measure of average folks, intelligence can be qualified. But when it is question about the future effects of intellectual efforts on humanity in say 1000 years, all scientists on this Earth are at a loss. Not one person on this Earth is capable to think in streams of origins and effects (Ursachen-Wirkungs-Ketten), truthful and useful enough to be taken for serious.

5. It is one of the greatest errors to believe that people, worshipped in their times of life, are important and have by nature high IQ. The contrary is true: The most relevant people of their times never were recognized by contemporaries - never. Some may have had some importance at their end of life-time, but most great brains were recognized after death only or most of the time very long periods after their natural death. So never think to "know" the most important people around the year 2000. Only the most intellectual persons in the year 2100 will know, after all collapses had gone over this overpopulated Earth in ecology, economics and culture, will grasp what has happened, who were the very few people of value at the beginning of the 21st Century.

I could write some other 100 pages and more about the phenomenon of intelligence, in fact already written in my German literature. But considering what I just said, this would be at this place without real effect and value.

You, dear Reader, risk to die one day, according to the plans of your fate, without having understood reality as such. It is important to try to be more intelligent than the actual Boulevard of wrong thinking, indoctrinating you since WW II, just before WW III may probably be launched by GW Bush or any other "genius" with big power on this globe - and very low IQ.
