I donīt score well on tests that rely on knowledge of American legislation, holidays and the Bible.

If thats what it takes to be regarded as intelligent, well then I guess I am not.

You got 11 of 11, only 3 people have scored this high.

You can't expect a Swede to know anything about the Bible. I think they are returning to their Viking roots. More than half the children born in Sweden today are illegitimate.

Well, that is sort of the point....

And it's not an intelligence test, it's an

"Intellignece test"

There's a difference.

10.

One question seems flawed though. The question about the pills. It doesn't say if you should start with one and then take the next 30 min later or if you should take the first one after 30 min.

What's that rule? 'n' before 'e' except in 'alien'? Something like that?

How unintellignet.

Illegitimate ? According to what ? The Bible ? Canīt expect us to live by the rules of a fairy tale. Although, admittedly it has been read by at least as many people as any story by Astrid Lindgren..

Psalm 14:1

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

So what are the practical consequences of Swedish women having so many babies out of wedlock? Are these single women prospering or are your taxes so high that the government can just afford to throw money at them? These kids that are raised without a father, are they happy? You're kinda like white Negroes, aren't you?

I suppose time will tell what the practical consequences will be. Presumably, according to your Bible, this is the road to hell. That was a good song by the way.

Another way of seeing it is that this is what happens in a society where women liberation has come a long way. For better or worse, we (they) are not tied down by the cryptic anachronistic words of a book from the past.

White Negroes ? You mean albinos ? With red eyes ?

Sure, we drink a lot too. Trying to live up to our (rather dark) Viking heritage.

Got 10, but this is more of a "trick question" test... Or a "read between the lines" test than intelligence I think....

THe first question could certainly be read "4th of July Holiday" rather than "the day". Silly IMHO.

I used to give this test to my 7th graders to make them think more before answering.

Some months have 31 days; how many have 28?

Deceptive. Exactly 28? At least 28? Poorly written question. (I missed it.)
