When the mind's eye rests on objects illuminated by truth and reality, it understands and comprehends them, and functions intelligently; but when it turns to the twilight world of change and decay, it can only form opinions, its vision is confused and its beliefs shifting, and it seems to lack intelligence. ... Truthfulness. He will never willingly tolerate an untruth, but will hate it as much as he loves truth. ... And is there anything more closely connected with wisdom than truth?
(Plato, 380 BC)

What a distressing contrast there is between the radiant intelligence of the child and the feeble mentality of the average adult. (Sigmund Freud)

A Short Philosophical Metaphysical Introduction to Free Online IQ Tests!

Hello Everyone,
As a science philosopher I thought it would be interesting to do some IQ tests (the mind is a very interesting thing), which then led me to creating this webpage with links to reputable, free, online IQ tests (use Anchor Links or scroll to IQ tests below).

It is obvious that IQ / Intelligence is partly genetic and partly cultural (practice / education). I know that I come from a genetically smart family (due to test results of my siblings - see my Biography) and I was curious as to how ten years study of Physics, Philosophy, Metaphysics) affected my intellectual ability (for good or bad!! - my IQ Scores for the IQ Tests are shown next to the IQ Test links below).
According to these results I would be classified as 'gifted'. However, acting intelligently is not just about being a gifted 'genius' (an abused term!), but, as Plato wrote, requires knowledge of truth and reality (philosophy physics metaphysics) if we are to act intelligently and wisely. (And evolution has not equipped us well for this task, we tend to be deceived by our imagination, and we sense the world around us as being made of separate and discrete objects when reason clearly tells us things are interconnected).

Anyway, this page has a good collection of free online IQ tests. Hope you have some fun doing them. And I also hope that you will look around you sometimes and think about what everything is (including yourself), how it is all connected together in Space. There is now a simple explanation, you just need to read and think about it!
All the best,
Geoff Haselhurst

PS - I checked the links to IQ tests (below) in May 2006 and they were all working. Please write to us if there are any problems. Thanks.

Common Characteristics of High IQ Creative Genius

Somebody who only reads newspapers and at best books of contemporary authors looks to me like an extremely near-sighted person who scorns eyeglasses. He is completely dependent on the prejudices and fashions of his times, since he never gets to see or hear anything else. And what a person thinks on his own without being stimulated by the thoughts and experiences of other people is even in the best case rather paltry and monotonous. There are only a few enlightened people with a lucid mind and style and with good taste within a century. What has been preserved of their work belongs among the most precious possessions of mankind. We owe it to a few writers of antiquity (Plato, Aristotle, etc.) that the people in the Middle Ages could slowly extricate themselves from the superstitions and ignorance that had darkened life for more than half a millennium. Nothing is more needed to overcome the modernist's snobbishness. (Albert Einstein, 1954)

Having read many great philosophers over the past ten years (see Bibliography) I feel that I am reasonably well qualified to comment on some common characteristics of 'creative genius'.

i) They tend to live fairly isolated lives such that they have a great deal of time to think, and they are not so indoctrinated with the beliefs of their time, thus they are more likely to create / discover new knowledge.
ii) They tend to be very stubborn and believe that they are right, but this stubbornness is founded on a passion for Reason and Truth.
iii) They believe that things can be understood and explained by Science and Reason. That reason is founded on Principles and their logical deductions which are True if they correspond with our Senses. (Thus opinion plays no part!)
iv) They tend to be both curious and very good at understanding how things work. Often philosophers were also inventors.
v) They tend to be non-specialists with a diversity of knowledge (very different to modern education!)

BY JAN STRYDOM, M.A., H.E.D., D.Ed. & SUSAN DU PLESSIS, B.D., B.A. Hons (Psychology) - The most important criterion in diagnosing a child as learning disabled is the IQ test. The aim of an IQ test is to measure the intelligence of a child, which supposedly is an indication of the child's potential. But where does the test come from and does it really measure potential?

High IQ Organisations (from Google Directory)

Oddly, things have now reached such a state that even among men of intelligence philosophy means something fantastical and vain, without value or usefulness, both in opinion and practice. The cause lies in chop-logic which has captured all the approaches. It is a great mistake to portray Philosophy with a haughty, frowning, terrifying face, or as inaccessible to the young. Whoever clapped that wan and frightening mask to her face! There is nothing more lovely, more happy and gay - I almost said more amorously playful. What she preaches is all feast and fun. A sad and gloomy mien shows you have mistaken her address. (de Montaigne)
