i heard someone talking aobut this on here: what is the average IQ for Cjristians and atheists?
954095
Last time I checked it about 5 years ago it was 146. I was in gifted classes throughout school and was giving IQ tests yearly, the highest I ever made on one was 171. \nBut it was always kind of boring to take them so if I would have put some effort into it I probably could have made higher.\n\nI've always found atheist to be the least intelligent of humans, It's because they don't seem to care or put any effort into anything. They talk the talk by can't seem to walk the walk.\n\nThe average human IQ is between 75 and 130, I believe average would be around 100 for all humans.\n\nI'm more of a gnostic by the way.

First of all I would wonder what test you took to get those results. If you took a test from a psychiatrist they should have analyzed the results with you. If you took a test on the Internet I would be a bit skeptical about how accurate it is. But if it is accurate you are very smart!\n\n"IQs of 132 or above may join Mensa upon presentation of qualifying test results. Individuals with IQs of 137+ are eligible to join organizations such as TOPS (Top One Percent Society). Those with IQs of 150+ qualify for membership in the Triple-Nine Society and the One-in-a-Thousand (OATH) Society."\n\nIQ results can vary up to 20 points either way on any given day based on mood/etc. I would suggest seeking another test and take the median of the two result. Next look into a club of similarly smart people. Maybe you might want to ask for a raise once you confirm your a genius. haha!\n\nGood luck! (and Congrats)

Well, by IQ standards, that is considered above average.  The IQ test is not a very good test.  It does not truly test your ability to think or to reason.  Just like the SAT's, your IQ can improve everytime you take it.  Try it again and see what you get.  I did that, and the first time I got a 137 and the second time I got a 143.  I have also taken an IQ test administered by a psychologist and I scored 140.  It was much longer than the online version.  It took about 2 hours.  I believe that the scoring changes depending on the version.  A 135 is very good though, just don't put too much stock in it.  By the way, the high school that I went to required an IQ of 131 to enter the gifted program.

The average IQ is defined to be 100. most people range from about 85 to 115. The distribution of IQ scores lies on a Bell curve. It has been noted that the average IQ worldwide seems to have been rising at a rate of about 3 points per decade, so tests are periodically renormalized so that 100 is once again the average.\n\nNote that IQ tests are designed to measure specific aspects of intelligence, and there are forms and manifestations of intellect that are not indicated by one's IQ score.

Hardly. On the Internet, I've really only seen a handful of Internet trolls who are actually as clever as they suppose themselves to be. \n\nFactoring out the Internet for a moment, I think atheists (not all, but some) tend to think Christians are less intelligent than a lot of them are. And I suspect many atheists also look at their reasons for disbelief, which they consider to be rooted in reason, and suppose that because their belief can be sourced to a rational outlook, that those of their would-be opponents cannot be. \n\nAs a result, atheists tend to play a pretty weak hand with Christians in debate - they really do tend to underestimate them. They ply them with pesudo-logical paradoxes (that in fact have serious logical flaws to them) such as "can God make a rock too big for him to lift it?" And they'll toss out such red herrings as the "Flying Spaghetti Monster", one of the most poorly devised apologetic devices ever constructed in the history of theological debate.\n\nI think the more convincing arguments made by atheists tend to be the ones that take religion seriously - Paul Chamberlain's "Can We be Good without God?" I thought was a superlative and well argued work, though I didn't agree with some of its conclusions about the nature of religious belief. \n\nBut I can imagine a person being convinced by an argument made like that, because you are being taken seriously. Mockery has been taken out of it. I doubt too many people ever change because they are made fun of - there's no quicker way to shutter someone's ears.

There appears to be a lot of hippie liberals on this site.  President Bush's IQ is higher than all of yours, he went to an Ivy League School.

IQ scores are a horrible way to judge intelligence.  However, an IQ score of 126 would be above average.

Well i now feel STUPID! lol I am rolling it at 128.  But I do know people who have scored above 150 two are my brothers.  People are getting smarter!\nDescriptive Classifications of Intelligence Quotients \n  \nIQ Description % of Population \n130+ Very superior 2.2% \n120-129 Superior 6.7% \n110-119 High average 16.1% \n90-109 Average 50% \n80-89 Low average 16.1% \n70-79 Borderline 6.7% \nBelow 70 Extremely low 2.2% \n\nApparently, the IQ gives a good indication of the occupational group that a person will end up in, though not of course the specific occupation. In their book, Know Your Child’s IQ, Glen Wilson and Diana Grylls outline occupations typical of various IQ levels:\n\n140 Top Civil Servants; Professors and Research Scientists. \n130 Physicians and Surgeons; Lawyers; Engineers (Civil and Mechanical) \n120 School Teachers; Pharmacists; Accountants; Nurses; Stenographers; Managers. \n110 Foremen; Clerks; Telephone Operators; Salesmen; Policemen; Electricians. \n100+ Machine Operators; Shopkeepers; Butchers; Welders; Sheet Metal Workers. \n100- Warehousemen; Carpenters; Cooks and Bakers; Small Farmers; Truck and Van Drivers. \n90 Laborers; Gardeners; Upholsterers; Farmhands; Miners; Factory Packers and Sorters. \nWell now I don't feel so stupid! lol

It's better to find out what the average score was for the particular IQ test you took, as all IQ tests are different.  They try to be as close to a standard as possible, but not all tests are created equal.  I scored something over 140 on one, but it may have been easier than the test you took.  I know that 120 was considered above average for the test I took.

i doubt it I am very smart I have taken quite a few online and offline IQ tests and mine is 160. Einstien's was 168 so if she is not lying she is alot smarter than him and I doubt that i think out of the whole populace of MENSA only 1 maybe 2 have an IQ that high!!

100 is by definition average, but it's all right here.\n\n\n\nhttp://www.intelligencetest.com/report/1.htm

Scared and gullible? No, they really are more stupid than the average person. There have been many studies aimed at establishing a link between 'religiosity' and intelligence and almost all of them find that the smarter a person is the less religious he is. The results are summarised in this article with links to the data used.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religiosity_and_intelligence\n\nAs further evidence, note especially the christian response in the article, which can be summarised "Yes we are idiots, but that is part of gods plan."

It depends what test and what kind of scores they generate.\n\nSome publishers like using percentiles, T-scores, or the most common, Standard Scores. The highest Standard Scores on a "real" IQ test usually do not go higher than 145.\n\nHere are the following standard score descriptions.\n\nlower than 69 Mentally retarded range\n79 to 70 borderline\n80 to 89 below average\n90 to 109 is average\n110 to 119 High Average\n120 to 129 Superior\n130+ Gifted range

You just have to browse this site to draw that conclusion. Just compare the responses given by theists compared to atheists. Nothing retards intellectual development as much as religious indoctrination.

The average IQ of any person is 100.  It doesn't matter how old you are, the tests are tailored to different age groups.

I dunno, apparently like 120 and up is pretty cool. Just remember that IQ tests examine a very special set of skills. They have no bearing on your rhthym, your style, your potential as a human being, or whether you're nice person.

I personally prefer that so-called IQ isn't important. Almost every of us has 7 different intelligent centers or more.If u r weak in one thing.(JUST SUPPORTED),u'll gift in another thing.
