I'm just wondering , What do you think makes u smart? Do you think society looks more to those that are 'SMARTER' than some of us? Let me know what you think... I know that this isn't talking about WAR, or NWO, or Aliens, ...Just want to know your take on this subject. In our Western culture we equate the word with intellectual brightness, with intelligence. An intelligent man is our ideal man, rational, logical and forward thinking. Throughout time many societies have articulated different standards for the ideal human being. Early Greeks favored physicality and rational judgment; early Romans favored courage. Chinese cultures valued skills of poetry, music, calligraphy and archery. Followers of Islam valued the holy soldier while early Pueblo Indian societies most revered the empathetic person who demonstrated caring. In Western societies, however, our ideal remains the intelligent person, particularly in the last three centuries because of Descartes. In 1637 René Descartes wrote the iconic Western thought in his “Discourse on the Method of Rightly Conducting One’s Reason and of Seeking Truth in the Sciences,” “I think, therefore I am.” What we remember less is that he also wrote, “The greatest minds are capable of the greatest vices as well as the greatest virtues” and, “It is not enough to have a good mind. The main thing is to use it well.” In 1994 “The Bell Curve,” by Herrstein and Murray, outraged many Americans through suggesting that those with a low intelligence were at greater risk for becoming school dropouts, becoming divorced or products of divorce, becoming involved in crime and exhibiting other social pathologies. A year later, also reaching the best sellers booklist, Daniel Goleman published, “Emotional Intelligence,” with the subtitle, “Why it can Matter More Than I.Q.” Goleman argued for the legitimacy of a whole new skill set relating with people and their emotions. “Emotional Intelligence” and its 1998 follow-up volume, “Working With Emotional Intelligence” remain two of the most widely read social science books ever published. As a society we still lean toward thinking we can measure human intelligence by verbal memory, verbal reasoning, numerical reasoning, logical thinking and the ability to solve problems; but, we cannot ignore Goleman’s case for emotional intelligence, the ability to recognize one’s own emotional life, the ability to self-regulate those feelings, the ability to accurately interpret other people’s feelings and to feel, and to act, empathetically Oy Oy
