I think it can be either way...

You can be born with low IQ.. but can have a very high IQ and have stupid beliefs

depends what pov u are looking at

i will put in this way: the present state he / she is in is due to cause and conditions that person did in his/ her previous lives.

( if u believe in laws of karma , and such)

it's learned - lack of learning or "bad" learning). Can't believe one can be born with anything different than another.

In particular, I don't agree with sociallydistressed re being born with a low IQ (though I agree with the rest)

ckowalczyk I wish I could say the same, but I've known people on both sides of the boat, and there are those that can't learn.

first of all, you need to define the word stupidityn and which context u be using.

I think it's born!

it's a little from column a, a little from column b

umbreons_shadow I know a few people that weren't born stupid...

but managed to reach that level of intelligence later on.

I can recall a particular instance where a friend of mine, previously a member of the honor society, had to ask how to find a book..

in the library

idiocy and stupidity are two different things

I know some really idiotic geniouses

er

geniuses

heh

speaking of stupid

it's borned

rhett wins best answer

: *finding a book in the library* Be careful not to confuse stupidity with ignorance. They're not synonymous...

ihealth, again agreed. Yet I still believe that your environment makes you what you are. You're not born or predestined to be anything

you BECOME what you are - with time

My momma always said "stupid is as stupid does"

ok, it was Forrest Gump's momma
