I Admire Intelligence

I'm not sure I admire intelligence. What I want to admire is a good answer to why in a fair world would any IQ not be perfectly ok?

I admire character and values. Some of the best human beings in the world are neither that intelligent or well-educated.

Having a high IQ does not make you any better or any worse than anybody else. It’s your attitude that does that.

It has more to do with not celebrating stupidity, at least in my mind.

@Platoscave There is no way I can answer it because you can't put a maximum price on effort. Results are rewarded anyway, not effort.

@ravenwind43 Ok so you know there's a sad shameful problem in society with this stuff.

Everyone knows it.

@ravenwind43 OH YES IT IS.
The question is crystal clear.

WHY in a fair world would ANY IQ not be perfectly OK?

And nobody answered me.

I don't believe IQ really says anything. IQ test doesn't measure nothing.

@DestroyerOfIdeologies well what do you think they got invented for? I mean are there some parallels between those questions and the real world challenges?
