If you really are intelligent, you would recognize the argument from authority fallacy you're using.  It one of the more egregious instances I've seen.  If we test IQs and mine is higher, does that mean you're wrong?

Not to mention intelligence is all relative anyway.
Even a 2 year old infant that recognizes colours and shapes is more intelligent than a goldfish. Or even some Adults.

And being higly intelligent does not mean that we see every information that comes in clearly,most have biases and beliefs that invoke us to turn down our intelligence whenever it fits.

Look at H.P Lovecraft, he was highly intelligent and an ignorant ass at the same time. :p
