I really don't think so.
People are born with a capacity; be it mental, physical, emotional, etc.
You can breach this capacity; yes. But for others it may be harder.
African Americans dominate the sports industry. Why? Because generations of selective breeding created cotton-picking monsters! 
It is definitely a possibility that mental capacity is similar to physical capacity in that it varies amongst individuals. To say otherwise is denial, IMO.

Clearly speaking metaphorically. I presumed you would take my basic intelligence as a given and assume I knew that my brain wasn't ACTUALLY a muscle.

Lol. Don't be stupid.

We need to go the other way and make sure stupidity hurts. I will continue to discriminate against morons for the rest of my life. You pretty much joined the Total Fucking Morons club by posting this article, Ahab.

agreed! as everyone is considered by others to be stupid in some other way of which they have not yet experienced or perceived as they have, yet the english language is rather relative...

Your stomach(like everyone's) is made of smooth muscle.

BTW; the brain is made up of more than 70% fat in the form of myelination.

No, it's not weird. The fat serves to insulate the actual neuron, so it can fire exponentially faster than if it were not insulated. It makes perfect sense, if you think of how fast the brain can think.
We'd probably be retarded/dysfunction without all that fat.

Yeah, makes sense. I love how awesome shit is so cool. I was watchin a great show on dark matter today and it was fucking rediculous. How scientists use some crazy light-defraction bending telescope thing to figure out where it is and now they have huge maps of the stuff.

Stupid = mental laziness.
So you think we should give stupid people a chance.... kinda like how they have to have a quota of lesbians and ethnic people in the white house just so people wouldn't think they were racist or whatever. you know what, we should start letting stupid people into medical school! That will really make things fair! That's like how little league baseball teas no longer have winning teams and losing teams, they're all winners!
We're doomed.

what the fuck?
Okay first, lets not confuse knowledge and wisdom with innate intelligence.
also lets not discount mental laziness, i dont have this quality. that is one thing that makes me intelligent in ways everyone understands.
All my life I have been considered very intelligent. In many ways I am "dumb" and have been considered "retarded" because of not having an ability 99% of people have. yet people who dont even like me, or at least have issues with me, know that I am EXTREMELY intelligent. I just am.
I often wish I wasnt.
LEts talk about that, I have been discriminated against because I dont follow sheepish neurotypical norms, I challenge lazy minds, I honestly probably act a little narcissistic about it whether intentionally or unintentionally, and I think people may not trust because Im different in ways or they or there friends feel stupid, whether thats my fault or not depends.
also I live in a yuppie ass community, and regular drama exists without this or not.
Lots of stupid fucking people in high places. And the Nazi thing? Socialist doctrines particularly as it pertains to communism, national socialism, all that kind of stuff, rarely are not about trickery, and have trashed intellectuals and branded them traitors. particularly the Nazis.
If you are denied because you are smart, or run out of jobs because your intelligence is a threat, or people are more than just mentally lazy, thats the true crime.
If you are too stupid and/or mentally lazy, other than those who are simply born literally retarded etc, I dont feel sorry when you are "denied" anything. You aint denied shit.

I advocate shooting stupid people. It would be the "final solution". Not the mentally ill, like the autistic, but the stoopid who say, voted yes on "prop 8" in Cali, listen to Rush Limburger, think that we have the greatest health care in the world, think race based slavery was a good idea(how about fat, white, high school drop out, or twitchy, meth-head, well-fare leech based slavery?). Hay, I'd rather deal with a lazy person who knows who our first president was, then a hard working moron who thinks McDonald's is a gourmet meal, and Judge Judy is real court. Plus, if you work hard in the right ways, even Goober Dan in his stained up wife-beater and puck-up truck with built in gun rack can learn.
--------------------
Fight for a large loving government that can take care of its people, kill our criminals, and preform the huge industrial tasks our corporate overlords refuse(wanna greenwash me some more Exon?) Not this weak travesty that let millions starve and sucks corporate cock while failing at every turn.

myco_mikey_mo said: i agree except where you said "But because they were not given the intelligence others have, they are excluded." i have to disagree. i was given ZERO intelligence. nothing i'm knowledgable about was given to me...i had to either seek it out, listen intently or spend my own time studying the subject. its not the matrix where you can just download intelligence. people are always wanting the answers given to them. it doesn't work that way. if you want to be intelligent then put down the tv remote and read a book, or go experience life and learn as much as you can. knowledge is power and neither power or knowledge can be GIVEN. it has to be seeked

Stupid people should be killed off for the good of the species.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
