[QUOTE="RHYS, post: 98344, member: 6186"] Read the essay by Isaac Asimov, entitled "What is intelligence, anyway?". You can Google it for free. It explores this question precisely. I believe many are born with some natural knowledge (from where, I don't know). Sometimes small manifestations that seem to point to a different/past life. The line between this and natural ability/logic is often hard to decipher. Ex: someone born with innate abilities that were never actually "taught" here. From milking cows to an affinity for fine arts, or "just knowing" trivia or obscure stats or info. This very topic is along the line of what keeps me researching a greater meaning for my existence. I've always had an unusual abundance of such things that don't always fit together. It's random, frustrating & I have not discovered the point of any of it... yet. One of the theories I accept best is past lives & that some ppl seem to have experienced life many more times (and grown in wisdom) more than others. Big difference between "knowledge" & "wisdom", btw. You might also look into the work of Dr. ian Stevenson - who presents some astounding case studies for past-life subjects (mainly children). Not trying to deflect the point of this thread, but to me, the question of intelligence may lie within the thought of living previously. [/QUOTE]
