You read all of this below here, and saw only: "...debating skills that consist entirely of pointing out grammar, syntax and spelling errors."

Nothing else, huh? Wow!

As to "I.Q.", it stands for "Intelligence Quotient," yet another pretty-much meaningless and self-serving attempt on the part of mankind to pigeonhole and categorize that of which he has no real understanding; a self-stroking gesture intended to provide temporal if manufactured succor to his fragile, insecure and easily-bruised ego. It refers to a "potential for" intelligence, but renders no opinion as to whether that "potential" is active or inert: hence but a throwaway term lacking all substance used to fool his more simply-gulled contemporaries.

Worse-still, given the unassailable logic of the prior, to want to know what your "I.Q." is is to basically ask what someone else (who can't possibly know the answer) what your intelligence level may or may not be—quite obviously, an urge borne of a blatant insecurity level demonstrably counterproductive in any environment or application.

That said, Mensa's tests are exhaustive, and clearly represent the state-of-the-art of man's penchant for superimposing his lack of knowledge in a futile attempt to define wisdom down to a human level which ignores the inevitable primacy of the one true Wisdom, which is that of God alone.

"To fear the Lord your God is the beginning of Wisdom."

Sine qua non.

Suffice to say, your ability to comprehend what you're looking at and assimilate its import is as deficient as is your decision to select a "candidate" who insists he isn't running. Can you say, "I just don't have a frigging clue"?

I knew you could.

Empty non-sequiturs get the attention they deserve.

Zer0!
