My IQ is significantly higher than 35. Why would I care what the Bible claims or does not claim?

What, is your I.Q., 38 to 42? Why did you bring up your I.Q.? Do you follow Donald Trump? Did you see the posting here on Lemmy was about Donald Trump (This Lemmy Posting you replied to is titled: "White House / President Donald Trump claims credit American Pope Leo’s election - despite having nothing to do with Conclave. -- Instead of God appointing the King, Donald Trump is bigger than God He") - and you instantly started to parrot / repeat Donald Trump talking points / media messages? "Trump fixates on IQ as a measure of self-worth", "It wasn’t the first time Trump fixated on IQ as a measure of a person’s worth — or, as is frequently the case, worthlessness. And it wouldn’t be the last. Fifteen years later, Trump, now president of the United States, still uses IQ as a shorthand for intelligence, dividing the people in his orbit into winners and losers."

Why would I care what the Bible claims or does not claim?

To not be ignorant and uninformed. To not make electric information warfare against the topics of Marshall McLuhan postings on Lemmy. To not compulsively react as conditioned by Cambridge Analytica to behave as you do on social machine systems. As study of how the mechanics of mass mind manipulation and information warfare works on the Roman Empire and United States of America in May 2025.

George Lucas filmed lessons for Star Wars fans, Hollywood audiences in 1987: "It says to me that they don’t know how to apply their religious ideas to contemporary life, and to human beings rather than just to their own community. It’s a terrible example of the failure of religion to meet the modern world. These three mythologies are fighting it out. They have disqualified themselves for the future." - Joseph Campbell, age 83
