you forgot canibus. he's smart...

Mozart was "proven" to be the smartest individual who ever walked the earth. Music has been proven to use the most brain activity by far over any other activity the brain does. Mozart was one of the best of all time in that field.

Please tell me this kid is joking

you guys are talkin about college smart..the best knowledge of all time..is street knowledge,common sense,wits..you understand me?..people who can think and act fst on their feet..

Top 5 smartest….Just give a list

Like Aristotle etc..

Doesn’t matter who it’s ones own opinion.

I only read the first few posts. And must ask Gunman the Great why he thinks Hitler was a genius. Why gunman, why?!

I hear/see this sometimes. People claiming Hitler was a genius that is. But most are just jumping on a bandwagon of 'going against the grain' and the pretense of 'conflicting enligthenment' of sorts. Without truly being able to explain why they think he was a genius. Just things like 'he could command a crowd'...er, ever think of the situation in Germany and the world at the time? And the people around him?..

5 most intelligent? Couldn't say. Though if you mean top 5 people who i think are most intelligent on a 'basic' scale of 'valuation' of intelligence. Then...off the top of my head...

'The philosopher' - A philosophical answer...
Shakespeare - Even though there is doubt to if he wrote all that is claimed. Nonetheless, it doesn't matter at the moment.
Einstein - He just seems synonymous(sp) with intelligence in modern day times...

Dunno...i don't think it's that important to rank 'top 5' as such. Though except maybe to ignite further discussion/debate.

The Pythagoreom Theorem Or Whatever People
Malcom X
Dr. Martin Luther King
Abe!
Einstein
Shakespeare
Issac Newton

No Specific Order..

but theres alot more...should be a Top 10 list...

Robert Oppenheimer
(He invented the A-Bomb and changed the world forever)

Abraham Lincoln
(Ended slavery and changed the world forever)

Rosa Parks
(Wouldn't give up her seat on the bus and changed the world forever)

Arnold Schwarzenegger
(If you can go from being a poor kid in Austria, to where he is now, California's governor, you're smart as a motherfucker)

Muhammad Ali
(Simply the greatest, and he wrote the shortest poem ever...
Before Ali came along, the shortest poem was called Ants, and it only read, Adam Had Em...Ali, when giving a speech at Harvard University was asked to come up with something even shorter...he did, and it made an impact on the students...he gestured to himself, then to the crowd he was giving the speech to and said, "Me, We". That is bad fucking ass!)

And, yes, I think these people were smart as fuck for doing what they did, EVEN THE A-BOMB GUY!!!

Peace

You think you are one of the most intelligent people in the world? That in itself would make it not so.

Shakespeare was not a genius, he just could write. He wrote with the heart, and his mind was his heart. He just understood human emotion incredibly well.

Martin Luther King and Malcom X were not necessarily very smart people. They were powerful with their words in a society that needed to hear them. They rebelled, that doesn’t make them especially smart, just nonconformists.

Hitler – No. Read varenteo’s post if you must. He was too stubborn to be a genius, same goes for him being power drunk and still wanting more.

The idea of actual intelligence, and how it can stand over another person is quite redundant. It would have a lot more sense to say, ‘who are some really intelligent people?”, or something along those lines. I suppose this would be in correlation with the persons IQ? Which I personally think is an incredibly inadequate way of representing a person, and their mind.
