So tempted to say ^^^^, but that would be mean . . .
Intelligence comprises our thoughts, ability to communicate, understanding, our ability to reason, to learn, plan, and problem solve. Probably a few other things, too, but I am not that smart.

great post.....here's why:
if you were correct, that would likely suggest intelligence on your part, or maybe just not unintelligence.....
but if you were wrong, you would be unintelligent (perhaps) and the above person (assuming we're talking about me) would be intelligent.....and of course being unintelligent you wouldn't know that's the truth....
this suggests, since an unintelligent person doesn't know they are in that bubble, and an intelligent person does....the intelligent person is compelled to skepticism of their own beliefs...
all this .....unless of course you 'know' you are intelligent and that indirectly points to the original question put in a different way, what makes you know your smart.....?
this isn't pointed at anyone, just used milo's post as an example.
Here is another incredibly ignorant post by Yours truly.:)
Overall intelligence is knowing right from wrong and the ability to tell the 2 apart. And like Milo said earlier.
A person can spend 4,5,6 or 7 years in University and be brilliant or very intelligent in their career. They can also be extremely stupid in all other aspects of life.
Meaning you can be smart and know your job, but can be an absolute retard at everything else.

i may agree here however this does not get us any closer to the point unless of course we start a new thread called what is right and what is wrong....because to recognize intelligence we would first have to have someone of intelligence define right and wrong (and we couldn't know if they were intelligent since we hadn't defined it yet)...

We might expect then, that this person is not actually intelligent.....?

I see pretty circles . . . in sparkly colours . . . it's a DOUBLE RAINBOW.
I was teasing my cat with her cat toy, (mouse on a string) allways just pulling it out of reach before she could catch it. She finally caught it and ran off to the corner and hid it.
I thought that was pretty intellegent.

i like it....now please relate to intelligent humans....
Hey, I just start conversations, I don't actually participate in them. I show my intelligence by sticking to the motto "Better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." I think it was Kermit the Frog that said it.
In all seriousness, I find that intelligence is the ability to use life experiences of both yourself and others to make informed decisions about your own life. I believe that those with a high level of intelligence learn from the mistakes of others in order to make less of their own and share their own mistakes with others so they will make less of their own.

the ability to learn and teach....the difference between man and machine....for now...
How about Adolf Hitler and Ghengis Khan? I believe were both considered very intelligent... lol at intelligence precluding violence or being mutually exclusive.

and that because of preconceived notions and prejudices i think its helpful to define what is 'unintellegince'

Norden, he's the guy that developed a more accurate bomb site just prior to WW2.
Both guys were geniuses, yet their work led to unimaginable violence and destruction.
You mean the people who get caught. :-X
