Intelligence is very well defined. You can even take a test to measure it precisly.

I can define it one way and you can define it another way and a panel of people that are claimed to be highly intelligent can make a test to test intelligence.... but setting some sort of standardized intelligence definition, while mildly beneficial, still belies the fact that we are all different as individuals, and we all think differently...

We don't really know how the brain works, but we can measure some of its abilities.
Often people with poor speaking skills might come across as stupid, but they might have astonishing math abilities.
Without a well laid out map of how the brain works its impossible to accurately measure intelligence.

I feel intelligence is the ability to make connections between observations, as well as express these connections. It also has a lot to do with processing information recieved from others (like having somebody TELL you the world is round, and being able to determine that they are probably correct, without having to circle the earth to see it with your own eyes..) and determining their validity by running this new information through all the other information already in your brain to see if it fits properly.
Another big part of intelligence in my opinion is being able to change everything you know if a new piece of solid information is obtained that turns everything else upside down.
And of course, being able to finally understand that we are dealing with PROBABILITY and will basically never know anything, just will know possibilities and probabilities.

Insert an "I think" mentally in front of eveything I say that seems sketchy, because I certainly don't KNOW much. Also; feel free to yell at me.

intelligence is the capacity of the mind, which is simply the collection of impressions that have been recorded since birth.
--------------------
we were born into the world of nature.
when we die, we are born into the world of spirit.

Annnnnnd I had a light saber and my friend was there and I said "you look like an indian" and he said "you look like satan" and he found a stick and a rock and he named the rock ooga booga and he named the stick Stick and we both thought that was pretty funny. We got eaten alive by mosquitos but didn't notice til the next day. I stepped on some glass while wading in the swamp and cut my foot open, didn't bother me til the next day either....yeah it was a good time, ended the night by buying some liquor for minors and drinking nips and going to he diner and eating chicken fingers, and then I went home and went to bed.

intelligence is inversely proportional to the ammount of time an individual spends on an internet website pondering and posting about intelligence. heh
