Intellectualism should be placed above Religion, Social status, Love, and many more, along with Science, and other things that mainly revolve around rationalism. I think it is very sad how Religion and other things are interfering with the development of Intellectualism in this age.

Don't treat it like a philosophy, it shouldn't be treated that way... it should just be seen as something you should be. Something that's healthy, something that's a virtue. Not a philosophy or something. Also I don't necessarily agree with you here.

"Religion"

Yes. Just yes. Religion is interfering with intellect, rationality, and intelligence.

"Social status"

Hmm. Sure, yeah.

"Love"

Ehh... I don't think so. Sorry if this sounds ignorant I wouldn't trade any amount of knowledge for my boyfriend.

"Science"

Um? I think this is pretty important. I mean, without it, you wouldn't be talking to us over something as advanced as the internet.

I didn't say Science should be placed below Intellectualism, I said science should be placed on the same level of societal value as Intellectualism.

Love should be nowhere near as important as Intellectualism..... Love often involves just doing things without thinking about it, impulsivity, etc, even though without reproduction, which is the result of Love sometimes, we wouldn't be here, and Earth would be void of all life.

Oh I see. I misread it. Quite a tricky sentence you made there. You could try dividing it into two.

Well, I wanted to make it more compact / less spacious.

Actually, I am not sure 100% on Religion, because a lot of times it revolves around paranoia, and sometimes and more rarely, more intellectual people are Religious because there is no actual scientific proof that Gods / higher beings exist or don't exist.

I'd rather be an Atheist though, thinking about trying to follow a set of rules throughout your whole life in fear is something of a tax.

I'm going to make a big guess that English isn't your first language. Let me try rearranging it to make it more comprehensible.

"Intellect, along with science and other topics that mainly revolve around rationality, should be placed above religion, social status, love, and many more."

Edgy meaning sharp? Sharp in terms of intelligence? (That man was sharp, he was a lot smarter than me and my friends.) Well, I have an I.Q. that is between 135 and 143, which is above average. By the way, I am going to just say that the I.Q. isn't always a 100% accurate measure of intelligence, it is really approximate.

Well, I suppose your re-phrasing of my sentence would be easier to read, but my original was is still grammatically correct in the English language.

Both your grammar and vocabulary are quite atrocious for someone with an IQ around 140. What's your first language?

My first language is English... but I have OCD and Depression, which is probably altering how I speak in several ways, considering how I like to be organized and use the same words in sequence.

Not necessarily. You did capitalize a lot of common nouns.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder? That explains it a bit. I thought your first language would have been German due to your odd capitalizations and the order you put your sentence in.

No, it's fine. As long as you could be understood, you know?

Well, in theory, intellectualism SHOULD be placed above all else, but I don't think it will ever happen, considering human nature.

Oh, and a lot of times more intellectual people have above - average intelligence. This in itself is probably limiting the development of intellectualism, because, well..... people just aren't smart enough on average to become ultra - intellectual. This means that the amount of intellectual people is going to be limited until average intelligence becomes higher than it is right now.

Some people estimate the I.Q. of Socrates to have been around 160. Far from the current average. Reminder - the I.Q. is not a 100% accurate measure of intelligence, it is approximate.

As a whole, yes, maybe it should. But individually, it would vary. You can't really force everyone to value intelligence more than anything else. Some people are just too materialistic. Me? Well, this sounds sappy but I value my boyfriend more than I do a bit of knowledge. I still value intellect, however.

Oh, and for those who, sadly, do not know....... Socrates was an intellectual.
