"Is this the thing about not putting tomatoes in a fruit salad? Ew...why would you want to put tomatoes in a fruit salad anyhoo??!!!!! " I think they say knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. You could maybe say its the difference between understanding theory and practise. | |||

"Define a better world then we can talk! No evil, no judgments, no war, no domestic violence, no child poverty, no terrorism.... Shall I go on?" Neither intelligence or wisdom will stop or alter any of the above unfortunately unless we all live and think the same way. | |||

"I see wisdom as the ability to apply intelligence, so neither are beneficial without the other." I tend to agree with that. Intelligence is about knowing facts, wisdom is about predicting outcomes and consequences of actions based on intelligence. | |||

"I see wisdom as the ability to apply intelligence, so neither are beneficial without the other. I respectfully disagree with that statement xx Why do you disagree? Intelligence is knowing and wisdom is gained by doing. I know intelligent people who make very unwise decisions...to the destruction of lives around them. I think that’s the point that was trying to be made. It sounds like you agree. Just because someone is intelligent it doesn’t mean they are wise. I agree both are benefical to each other but you dont always have both running in parallel. I think wisdom is the application of intelligence. For example, someone may be very intelligent at maths and good with numbers. But even though they could work out the odds they still choose to gamble their money away. They may be intelligent but not wise. I know where you are coming from. However we may need to agree to disagree that wisdom is not same as prediction. I agree that wisdom is not the same as prediction. But wisdom is about having good judgement which is also not the same as being judgemental. For example, it’s wise (good judgement) to meet people from fab in a public place. That isn’t judgemental. That makes sense when you put that way. Agreed. He always makes a lot of sense Indeed. He is a gentleman and a scholar. As are you my friend! I’m clearly not a gentleman but I’m definitely a scholar. Can I be in the club pretty please? " Yep!

"Both is ideal really. If you have both, that's pretty formidable. Intelligence on it's own is great but how useful are great raw materials if undeveloped v tried and tested well seasoned formulas? I would also argue the intelligent person would have the intelligence to figure out the value of wisdom and seek it out from that which is written and from them that have it."

"Everyone seems to have missed out that wisdom can be learned through experience nothing to do with intelligence " You can learn from your own experiences or from other people's or organization's experiences. A classic example is Korean airlines.They were crashing their planes left, right and center till NASA studied the cultural bias and patriarchal hierarchy in korean culture and came up with CRM, which all airlines in the world use it.

In turn proving that the correct answer is still both, making the question utterly pointless. | |||
