    People are more or less born with their IQ, and nothing "happens" to people *because of* being highly intelligent.

    Being a good or a bad person has nothing to do with your IQ, education level or the ability to learn new things. However, it can be dangerous to be smart and evil at the same time. Look at Hitler and other famous leaders, and also at those scientists that developed the atomic bomb and other mass destruction weapons.

    No-one 'becomes' highly intelligent.

    IQs are more or less fixed at birth.

    But very intelligent people are very rarely evil. Education and life experience almost always teaches people right from wrong as well as facts, knowledge and skills.

    That is up there - Power corrupts. Power does not corrupt, it accentuates. If you are corrupt to begin with, power will corrupt you more. If you are benign then power does not corrupt you. The problem is that corrupt people seek power.

    Knowledge is not evil. It is not sinful. I think it's evil that someone has tricked you into a fear of intellect, insuring you'll always be a sucker. That's not friendly.

    My female minister taught me that knowledge puffs up people and this is taught from the bible. But proverbs in the bible says that wisdom says to seek knowledge to the simple minded. And the bible says it is good to seek the knowledge of God. Source the bible. Think about it.

    You must be a Christian, asserting your beliefs without evidence like this.

    Thanks for calling Albert Einstein, Jonas Salk and Stephen Hawking evil.
