I believe intellect is learned, not born.

I believe the difference is amount a person studies, not what they were born with.

If that was you point.

And I think the largest mistake academia has made is not knowing that the longer one studies the smarter they get and I think everyone would do much better if they had a minimum level of study to the PHD level.

What makes the great writers/thinkers great, is not innate intelligence, IMO, but long hours of study.

If you accuse someone of that you need to specify.

I figured that you'd be, er, educated enough to figure that out after the fact, if not before you posted.
