Intelligence? : /
Even when I was a kid I always wished I was a genius and could be in MENSA so that my parents could be proud of me.
(because one of my relatives is in MENSA and his O Level score was negative because he was so smart and represented in champioships for gymnastics and took many points off)

But after seeing this I’m so glad I’m dumb.
Is she that intelligent? I say no.
Life isn’t about money, about luxury. You gave up your family, just for money.
Is it worth it giving up dignity for all the luxurious things in the world?
I disagree.
So what if you’re smart. So what if you’re a prodigy.
You’re nothing if you have no self-respect and self-love.
Because of all the immenient world destruction from global warming and pollution of all kind, does anyone actually think about what’s actually going to happen when we’re too overpolluted and what should we do?
We have to discuss various options and even to the extent of leaving Earth, and bringing all the species of animals with us.
To live in space, it is important to get all the dangers down and other science and math down.
I want to help all the animals of Earth. They don’t deserve to die because it’s not their fault. It’s ours and we should fix it. I wanted to do astrophysics so much because maybe then we can devise a method that can save them all from the crumbling Mother Earth, but I’m too dumb. I always thought people from MENSA would probably enter the science and math field and help.
But no.
No offense to anyone, but this generation of children are being born lusting for fame.
They want to just be celebrities and get that easy money and people looking at them, lavishing attention on them.
Hell, sometimes even I think that way too.
They don’t want to be scientists, astronauts, or whatever anymore. Just to be celebrities.

Like the 8 teens who beat up and 16 year old and putting it on youtube.
What for? To get arrested? I doubt so. They could just go into the police office and stab an officer.
For attention more like. Be cyber celebrities.
It’s the same even with people in MENSA.
Having a higher intelligence, don’t they realize this is a very dangerous situation?
It would cause civilisation to backtrack, as everyone is only in a state of partying and attention-seeking and focusing on celebrities and not wanting to use their brains to solve issues that are actually important.
I’m disappointed that Man has become so complacent with their lives they’re just not caring about advancement anymore.
Okay, to stop blabbing, the bottomline is:
Through evolution Man has gained intelligence but in the current situation intelligence seems to be going backwards.
This is dangerous because we need to advance.

Thats so true! Being rich or famous or even intelligent is not everything. Above all, we’ve got to have a good heart. I’ve also read recent articles about university graduates getting involved in some ‘undesirable’ activities which they claim is a result of stress and financial problems. In a way, I feel that dignity is more important than good brains. And if you are smart, that does not mean that you decide sensibly!

I think fundamentally, everyone wants attention; it’s just a matter how much they want it. As filmmakers and people in the media, we tend to be more attention seeking than that – that’s why there are credits. Nothing wrong with that, I think.
