How's your IQ?

Current psychology is (in the past 20 years or so) moving away from the idea of a fixed intelligence (that means don't put too much stock in an IQ test). (See Rethinking Gifted Education by James H. Borland). Joseph Smith had something to say on this topic in the 1830's.

"God has created man capable of instruction, with a faculty which may be enlarged in proportion to the heed and diligence given to the light communicated from heaven to the intellect."


- Joseph Smith
