RE: How to Measure Someone's Intellectual Competency In Respect To Yours
I 've known plenty of pathological liars but just like in a game of poker, they have a tell. One lie only forces the next lie to be harder.
Most kids begin by being bad liars and then they learn to become better. Most people lie most of the time so they get extra points on the skill.
Those who are terrible liars are actually the most honest people.
Everything can be taught in regards to intelligence. Research has shown that one can improve their IQ by as much as 20% which would even invalidate the spectrum between genius and stupid
Right, that's kinda what I'm saying... But I think while any given aspect can be learned, we have natural predispositions that make us better at learning certain aspects.
And while increasing IQ by 20% might remove the genius/stupid gap the genius could likely just do the same thing.
