LESSON: ONE DRINK LEADS TO ANOTHER DRINK!

"Reputation," he said, is what people think you are, and "character" is what you "really" are. Since that time, I have had many opportunities to check out these... Sign in to see full entry.

YOUR "IQ" AND YOUR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS: ARE THEY CONNECTED?

"I.Q." stands for "intelligence quotient" and is generally taken as a measure of one's mental abilities or potential. By definition, the "average IQ" is set at 100. Of course, then, scores of less than 100 indicate a lower than average IQ, and those above 100 indicate a higher than average IQ. 115... Sign in to see full entry.
