peacesamuel94: I think they complement each other, we need a degree of intelligence to exhibit wisdom, and wisdom itself is a quality of the intelligent, i see it as the ability to apply and manipulate knowledge or rather your intelligence to your advantage and putting it to more practical use True. But is wisdom experience based or just God-given? Does it have some spirituality to it? |

[quote author=peacesamuel94 post=61977436][/quote]I don't think Kim Peek should be classified as unintelligent. Although his case is rather unusual and could be attributed to a cerebral damage enhancing certain abilities viz assimilation in Kim's case while creating deficiencies in other basic abilities. But the issues here is not knowledgeablity VS intelligence but intelligence VS wisdom. Whats the difference? |
Education › Re: The Difference Between Intelligence And Wisdom by pressplay411(op): 6:12pm On Nov 04, 2017 |
DarkRebel69: If you had data then you wouldn't have insinuated that Kim Peek (a guy who scored a measly 87 on the general IQ tests he took) may not have been unintelligent. This is a guy who could not even function as a human being without the help of his father.
I didn't use abusive words on you. I only spoke the truth. You are slow & your intellect is zero. Now, kindly fück off. You've made very intelligent opinions on this thread but I don't think the harsh words were necessary. You're both of divergent views no harm in that. If I could crave your intellectual indulgence further, is wisdom spiritually inspired or experience based? |

DarkRebel69: More like indepth crammers. They know stuffs in depth, but that's where it ends. They can't see, and when they see, they can't make connections between seemingly discrete bits of knowledge; they can't synthesize, analyse, or apply knowledge. They are only veritable "vessels" of knowledge. Sub level >> >> XX [] on a Subzero fatality shi. Sub-ject can't even RIP.  |
Education › Re: The Difference Between Intelligence And Wisdom by pressplay411(op): 8:54pm On Oct 31, 2017 |
DarkRebel69: Yes, they are very different, although time is usually a function of wisdom, and wisdom usually comes more easily if a person is already intelligent.
It is my belief that there 3 classes of people when it comes to this sort of thing:
1) People who are knowledgeable
2) People who are intelligent
3) People who are wise
People in the first group (especially if they aren't intelligent) are like programmed automatons. Their head is stockpiled with every fact, every important historical date, and every trivia under the sun. They can recit the entire Magna Carta. They are walking libraries. Except that they can't manipulate the knowledge they have. They can't think abstractedly nor can they make connections between the reams of knowledge floating in their heads, and all they do is blind regurgitation. This sort of people only know 'definitions". They can tell you the definition of this and that, but are clueless about the working mechanisms.
People in the second group on the other hand are intelligent, and so naturally would be knowledgeable. Unlike the first group, they have intelligence and can easily absorb, manipulate, and apply the knowledge they have gathered. They are also capable of abstraction and they can synthesize disparate bits of knowledge.
And, lastly, the people in the third group (the wise ones) know when and when not to apply knowledge. Wisdom comes with experience and is sometimes an innate quality.
Intelligent person: Knows how to create an Atom bomb and so he creates one
Wise person: May or may not know how to create an Atom bomb. Understands the ramifications of creating a nuclear weapon and so chooses not to create one. Very Interesting. Introducing a disparity between knowlegability and Intelligence is something I never really thought of. But I get your angle. The "programmed automations" are more like the crammers in school right?  |
Education › Re: The Difference Between Intelligence And Wisdom by pressplay411(op): 8:44pm On Oct 31, 2017 |
aaronson: when intelligence speaks, wisdoms listens. intelligence is the know how, why wisdom knowing the best time and place to apply the how how. I really like this. Wisely said. Hats off. Intelligence is the technician, wisdom is the manager. Intelligence is the lawyer, wisdom is the judge. Intelligence comes from gaining knowledge and experience in applied knowledge, wisdom comes from best application of intelligence. How then can we explain kids or teenagers that seem wise beyond their years cos clearly they lack the both the vast knowledge and experience required to be wise yet they just seem so wise beyond their years. |

RtdGeneral: I am presently stock in love with a lady that dosent care anymore about me & the relationship. She was commited for the first few months of the relationship. I thought I finally got a wiffy too. She changed along the line. Tried talking to her about OUR sudden change in attitude about the relationship. She dose not care anymore. I had to look inward and I discovered that she had a multiple of other sexual partners, both married & singles alongside with me. Though, I am yet to confront her. She avoids intimacy as much as possible these days. Should I just know my worth & play along till I get tired of her? But I love her whole heartedly, not infatuation atall. I don't even mind abt her cheats if she can stop and be commited. Constructive criticisms & advise plz. Thanks You're just said it yourself that you're dating a serial cheat. What else do you expect? You don't pluck apple from a guava tree. If you've complained and she hasn't changed trust me she can't help her ways. I know her sexual prowess got you on a lock down bro but in your best interest she ain't loyal... Take the next turn. |

He's defected yet again. Smh Well in his best interest APC is unlikely to support his 2019 ambition. He doesn't fit the bill. I think APC tries to project an anticorruption and performance based mantra. He fails miserably in these. He was largely accused of corruption during his stint as VP He also lacks any tangible achievement to boast of as a VP. |

zinnyzee: Intelligent isn't wisdom.
You can be intelligent without being wise, but being wise requires a certain level of intelligence... We all don't have d 3figure I.Q but that doesn't mean we all can't make wise decisions when the need arises. And it ain't everyone wif d 3figure I.Q who end up making d best decisions.
The bottom line is, wisdom is in-built and can only be acquired after certain experiences while intelligence is something you pick up with visitation to the four walls of a classroom. #shalom. Hats off zinnyzee. You nailed it.  |

zimbolaa: Wisdom is simply the application of knowledge to solving problems/complex issues. One may be intelligent (ability to acquire and impact knowledge) but unable to apply it to solving human problems. That's why so many graduates are jobless.

Lessonteacher: IN MY OPINION INTELLIGENCE IS ABOUT ENLIGHTENMENT AND SELF-AWARENESS, THERE'S ALSO AN ELEMENT OF WISDOM IN ENLIGHTENMENT. ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE "THE FEAR OF GOD" IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM. IN VIEW OF THIS, WISDOM HAS TO DO WITH COMPLETE ADHERENCE TO THE WORD OF GOD That's a very important angle you mentioned. I think in most cases wisdom has an element of spirituality to it. But then again some unreligious people are wisely running multinational businesses and ruling the world. It's a thin line between Wisdom and Intelligence, I hope we can unravel it. |
