these words mean many things to many people....
i have been called quite intelligent and ignorant in the same day..
ok was called ignorant more times than the other... but in all fairness hold my moms opinion in high regard....

What I asking for is pick one or do all three and give an example of how you determine if one has , or is lacking in these three catergories.

Intelligence...experiential wisdom...first hand, be it academic, emotional or life that is lived.

Ignorant...uninformed, unaware, uneducated as to the topic.

Common Sense...the capacity of reasoning.

I call myself all three in varying degrees, depending on the topic.

i think most of your posts are intelligent or offer common sense.
I have not seen much for ignorance from you.

Intelligence to me involves so much more than IQ. It is your level of emotional IQ, Moral IQ and ability to maintain all through boundaries that are healthy for you and those around you. The more you know, the higher the responsibility for your actions.

Ignorance - The inability to accept that there are other opinions and lifestyles than your own or those you know. Attacking how or who a person is or stands for is a futile process that relies on agression to change what you find intolerant other than communication openly your own opinion and letting them ask questions. Only then would the answers be accepted and possibly applied.

Common sense - if it does not make sense, leave it alone - my grandma used to say. What it is to one person is insanity to another. For me it is the way I analyze a situation, identify the problem, come up with multiple solutions and process which one I feel best solves it. Those who process information in a manner I could not - would be someone I could befriend, but not have in a closer relationship.
