Are intelligence and creativity different traits? Like how was Faulkner, who supposedly had a 103 IQ, able to write some of the greatest novels ever?

Yeah, Andy warhol had an IQ of about 70. Creativity is arguably more important, and it can't really be changed or measured.

The only reason that engineers and scientists and technicians exist is so that artists and athletes and philosophers can have a slightly more comfortable place to work.

Creativity is what fuels science. This is why Jews will always be superior Mathematicians, high creativity combined with high IQ is what really makes the discoveries.

STEM fags without creativity have the most depressing lifes, dull aspies applying stuff someone else discovered or invented in some dimly lit cubicle for fifty years, without any redeeming social skill.

Yes, they're different.
I laughed when some 'expert' claimed Wayne Rooney is very smart because he can make quick choices when passing or shooting with a football.

Definitely. There are many traits that can make up someone and IQ doesn't exactly correlate with literature.

Pure mathematics and theoretical physics arguably require just as much creativity as they do intelligence.

Weak bait.

You obviously need to be creative to actually create new science and math, not so much if you just stick to learn and take in all the science and math those big, strong, creative men have produced

Ashkenazi Jews have the potent combo of high IQ and creativity.

Northeast Asians have moderately high IQ but derivative creativity. This explains their low novel scientific output per capita.
