people with an IQ meaningfully higher than that are like one in 10,000

The 2 main iq tests that people consider the standard: (Stanford-Binet and wechsler) do not have questions meant to test above about Iq130

I took one with a shrink and got about 130 and he said i answered every question right and the only way to get higher was to do it faster.

and imo the questions were not hard; the hardest questions were something like (do this in your head after its read to you) "multiply 15 times 7 and then take 15%"

shit like that, if answering that makes me one of the smartest people in society, then the average person is pretty fucking stupid

like really stupid

>Okay. Plenty of 13 year olds are atheists and philosophers too?
What?

no plenty of 13 year olds are introduced to apologetics and subject to this weak ass argument they have to spend the better part of an hour thinking about. before they see how spurious it is given current human knowledge

how are they testing their iq

we evolved abstract and mathematical thinking over thousands of years, they have never had a use for it. what capabilities do they have, what does saying they are as smart as a teenager even mean

also at 16 you are pretty much as "smart" as you are going to get, nearly anyway. Everything after that is learning and application not growth of raw intelligence

also if you deprive a human child from learning our speech and other things till they are 15 they will just be retarded for life and cant learn. A lot of saying "as smart as a 15 year old" means "as smart as an educated 15 year old" an uneducated 15 year old is going to be stuck as a mental toddler for life
