I haven't seen anything to suggest otherwise though... maybe you could give some examples as to why they're not intelligent incase I missed something?

With pleasure.

'Intelligence' is not merely about knowledge, although this is an aspect of it. They clearly have no general knowledge. Not to know Israel and refer to it as Israq is unbelievably foolish. To spell 'taxes' as 'taxis' is clearly dumb. To use the word we are 'psychopaths' instead of 'telepathic' is ludicrous.

But, intelligence is mainly about understanding the world outside your own bubble. All they are about is pink, shallowness and nothing DEEP. There needs to be some understanding of the world around you to be intelligent. They have NO ACQUIRED knowledge.

Intelligence is also about sensitivity and empathy. They only seem to be aware of themselves, and nothing that goes on around them.

They are just like eleven year olds in my class in primary school. I am sometimes amazed at how little they have developed into adults. There is no maturity or depth to them. In fact, they have NEVER once said anything intelligent, so I cannot see how you can describe them as such. When have they ever said anything informative?

Please do not use the 'they are at Uni' argument. We no little to their background, the level of the Uni they are in, how hard it is to get in, their A levels, etc. I can assure you that their Literacy ability is EXTREMELY low, and I find it very hard to believe they have any acquired knowledge whatsoever, as they have not matured beyond the age of eleven.

Please, now I have argued how they have very little intelligence, anyone can explain why they are intelligent?
