IMPROMPTU PROMPTED BLOGGERISH

YOU THINK YOUR SO SMART!

In my opinion, (anyone who knows me, knows I'm extremely opinionated.), but, (you're entitled to your opinion too), I don't think the term 'emotional intelligence' should be used at all.  The word 'intelligent'  has begun to give me nightmares.  Like in IQ tests.  I could rant for hours about the misuse of the word intelligence.  I think it all started when I read the book, "The Bell Curve" - very controversial because people thought it was racist - they saw it as pointing out that there was a significant difference between the intelligence of different groups of people.  I read it as proving that there was no significant difference.  I was .  Furthermore, who thinks they are qualified to define intelligence in the first place?!  EMOTION should have nothing to do with intelligence.  I have an EXTREMELY high IQ and I sure wouldn't think of giving up my totally illogical emotions in order to retain it.  So there!
