Hey, rump-munch, I corrected his having used the word "your" in the sentence "...I guess that’s why your so enthralled..."

As in "I guess that's why 'you are' so enthralled..."

Please, check post 70, then go hang your head like a good douchebag. Good God, but you people are as thick as snot!

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. Douchebag.

The gray matter of anyone who calls Cong. LtC(r) Allen West the “Magic Negro de jour” must be as inert as a fence post. Which was already patently obvious from debating skills that consist entirely of pointing out grammar, syntax and spelling errors. Of course the grade-school name calling that is ubiquitous in your posting isn’t exactly a sign of intelligence either. Frankly I would expect the driver of the short bus to reject your boarding pass on the grounds that the other passengers would tease you unmercifully.
