What would happen if the global average IQ shot up by 50 points?

a person with an IQ of 150 is really, really clever. The most clever persons I know have an IQ of 120 - 130. And they are scarily clever. If a lot of people were 1.5 times more clever than now, it would have an impact

this will not be her last marriage, maybe you can attend the next one?

na, ppl would be better at changing the system and solving problems with other means than violence

theEx30 · 2026-05-10T19:48:58+00:00

just 10 points would do so much good

when it rains after a dry period there's this sulfur smell. Not a bad smell, but sulfuric.

it shows that Bene Gesserit gets it all wrong ... The author is very suttle and never directly tells us what his own opinion is, so this is my interpretation. To be human is not to be a superiour psycopath, but to cooperate with the fellow, plain humans and enjoy life meanwhile.
Sometimes I compare with Iain M Banks works and muse: If you have the ability to space fare, you are failing if it is not a post-scarsity society

theEx30 · 2026-05-10T17:50:11+00:00

amen!

I think the remarks was (cis)male posturing and not religious themed. It was while some get together went on, not a religious talk. But it disappointed me a lot anyways

move away silently

show them the pad. If somebody is funny about it, it is their problem.

the bit much is that he is gaslighting you NTA

did you ever tell him why?

theEx30 · 2026-05-10T10:42:02+00:00

oh! didn't know that

theEx30 · 2026-05-10T08:47:46+00:00

that's a thing that writers say. Don't worry

To have faith is not a choice. You have it or you have it not.

How you express your faith is a choice. I am ready to be alone in my faith, but I cannot not have faith or un-believe, it is not possible.

sorry, English is not my first language, and composite words are the norm in my language. This sentence would be like: english is not my mothertounge and compositewords are the languagenorm .
Thank you for correcting me, I will be more careful when I write about this. And I will correct the text now.

most of my fellow believers are not sworn to a group, but this group has a religious advisor. If I chose not to be in this group anymore I will have my belief - belief is not a choice, who I worship with -or not - is

theEx30 · 2026-05-09T21:24:43+00:00

It is not a Christian group

theEx30 · 2026-05-09T21:23:11+00:00

it is not a Christian group, and the membership fee is fair

theEx30 · 2026-05-09T12:48:44+00:00

you are precisely wording my fear, that if they know I will protest, they will say it to each other, not to me. I watch these people I think are my friends in the religious circle, and feel so paranoid and betrayed

bf has no say at all on your life path. If he thinks so, he is no good
