The smartest man ever lived was a White, English Christian
Christopher Jones
Joshua Gutierrez
It's impossible to determine who was or is the smartest person since it's always a somewhat subjective category. As a smart person you would have known this.
Nathan Cox
Didn't he die a virgin? I actually have a lot more respect for him if he did.
Kevin Kelly
yes. he never had sex. had very few friends. he was very antisocial
Jackson Cooper
but also a virgin until the bitter end
Landon Stewart
He must have been pretty intelligent then. (no sarcasm)
Jaxon Fisher
Newton wrote more about conspiracy theories and occult than science. Smart man but crazy and delusional as fuck.
The most intelligent person was Einstein, a jew
Jack Brown
They are both plagiarists
Angel Young
wrong; its ben franklin.
>inb4 56%
Mason Torres
>It's impossible to determine who was or is the smartest person
Wrong. Jesus Christ is the smartest man to ever live because he is also God, the creator of all things on heaven and on earth.
Git güd, faggot.
Adrian Allen
He did all this neat stuff, sure. But he didnt have any kids. He failed to do his part for the Anglo-Saxon genepool and now look at how the UK has turned out. He was an autist, sure but damnit the brits could use some more smart genes right now
Jaxon Lopez
Well, sure, but you can be intelligent and have people bend to your will. If you're smart, subtly manipulating people isn't really difficult
Julian Morgan
britain's average iq must be less than 100 now with all the mooslim terrorists on the streets
Owen Roberts
And a VIRGIN
Wow its like he was Sup Forums incarnate
Kayden Johnson
nice try anglo, but the aryan wins again
Levi Green
von Neumann was, quite literally, the smartest man who ever lived and he was a Hungarian Jew.
Joshua Watson
he was white, english, and christian but
Hunter Lee
He told us to nuke the URSS, but we did not listen. Every time I see the T-I-G-E-R-S meme I remember how right he was
Jason Rogers
It's impossible to determine who was the most intelligent ever. We can narrow it down to being a man of European origin
Da Vinci
Tesla
Jung
Galileo
Newton
Plato
Aristotle
Shakespeare
Goethe
Brandon Johnson
william rowan hamilton was irish
Dylan Gutierrez
You just want someone to be lower than you at 99.
We have lots of smart people but we also have Muslims shitting out their inbred kids with an IQ of potato.
Aaron Young
No Euler, no Gauss
worthless list
>Galileu
nice meme
Christian Adams
kek
John Collins
It's true. His interest in the Cold War actually led him to develop Game Theory (the thing that John Nash got famous for). von Neumann was so smart most mathematicians can't fathom it.
But the fact that other people in this thread don't know of von Neumann tells me Sup Forums has some pretty stupid people.
Camden Rogers
Also a virgin
Leo Howard
likely true, but if you consider the chance acquisition of worldwide fame and influence that these men acquired, i think a more rational argument could be made that the most intelligent person ever is totally unknown to mankind and likely died of some sickness or accident before he could establish a legacy.
Nolan Thompson
Aristotle, Plato, Socrates, Pythagoras. I don't see how anyone of the last 2000 years can measure up against the ancient European (mostly Greek) philosophers, mathematicians et al.
Grayson Lewis
oh shit nigger I love Goethe
Ryder Brooks
The smartest man to ever live was a Slav
Nathan Long
but did he watch rick and morty?
Oliver Brooks
Absolutely, considering the amount of time humanity has existed the most intelligent person would have likely been a peasant
Mason Long
Oh people were bent to Newton's will:

Yes, indeed.
Blake Hernandez

Connor Garcia
Wrong
Evan Nguyen
>mentioning the great ancient greek minds
>mentioning le ebin pythagoras

Also the fact that no onehas even mentioned von neumann yet means you are all brainlets.
Luis Taylor
>literal kike
Matthew Jackson
What an awful list. Tesla and Newton far outweight the rest on pure autistic intelligence scale. Not trying to undermine the brilliance of the rest, except Plato who was fucking shit.
Jack Sanchez
It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again
Adrian Brown
>le pop-sci kike fraud
Benjamin Ortiz
And he called out the Jew's mascot for Jewish genius for being nothing more than a fraud.
Camden Miller
>He thinks votes make a difference.
William White
Wasnt Erdòs Jewish too?
Camden Fisher
He was smart /for his time/
He would be pretty stupid compared to modern people. His greatest ideas are things virtually everyone figures out by highschool these days.
Christian Collins
To be fair a lot of people outside Sup Forums also are ignorant of the guy. His areas of interest were not very normie friendly: early computer science, logics, quantum mechanics, set theory, ...
His ideas were complicated as fuck(maybe MAD is the simplest and most well known) and pop science can't make it normie-friendly, so they're reserved for the academics only.
When it comes to raw intelligence I simply can't find someone above him. The only matches are from other eras(Euler, Gauss, Archimedes), in the 20th century he was simply above the rest when it came to brain power.
Brayden Diaz
Edward Teller. Brilliant mind, wanted to nuke every commie.
Parker Lee
Actually I did my MS in math and had to work with a lot of theorems von Neumann proved. You're dumbass if you think he did that.
Julian Taylor
>Leaving out Diogenes
Disappointing
Lucas Rodriguez
Newton invented Calculus, mechanics and optics - a massive leap forward in human achievement.
Actually, Leiboniz was taunted with hints about calculus by Newton. Leiboniz finally put Newton's puzzle pieces together and published about the Calculus, but it was Newton who invented the Calculus.
Jason Kelly
(((Isaac)))
Carter Thomas
Nope.
Camden Richardson
Consensus has Goethe and Da Vinci at the top of most lists. As for "Autistic intelligence" Correlation does not imply causation.
These threads always turn into pseudointellectual ego fests, I'm out
Aaron Sullivan
Jesus proposed a ideology that would self extinguish any culture that used it. You can't have a culture that has no sex, won't defend itself, and won't even work for a living unless it was a parasitical culture depending upon a sustainable culture.
Thank God the Romans stopped that nonsense, made it a slave religion and Romanized it.
Jack Kelly
Johnny von Neumann was the smartest person to ever exist.
Austin Jackson
Except Plato is literally the only one on that list who can even come close to have an argument over Newton (maybe also aristotle).
Most others on the list are more popular than intelligent.
Josiah Davis
Define smart. This was a man who invented calculus, but locked it in a draw for decades because HE didn't need it any more. THEN got into a bitter years long cat fight with Leibniz (another man who might qualify) over who invented it first!
He spent most of his time looking into christian spirituality and alchemy.
I would rather nominate the man who financed Newton's book the Principia.

Dominic Ross
Joshua Lopez
Diogenes is overrated because of lolsorandom reddit types.
Gavin Bennett
Knowing something because someone else figured it out for you doesn't mean you figured it out.
Joshua Butler
Do you not realize that if he were alive today he would have access to the same knowledge along with still having a greater ability to solve problems and understand complicated concepts than the average high school student or even above average high school student.
Benjamin Price
Christopher Thompson
Tesla? He was a pigeon fucker who was insane. Read about his description of his delusions in his book.
Aristotle set science back 1000 years, literally. He's why we now consider "appeal to authority" a logical fallacy.
Jung? Oh please.
Tyler Brown
Werner Heisenberg. Second? Niels Bohr.
The two founders of quantum mechanics.
The cook book based on QM they developed in the late 1920s has lead literally to everything we have today in terms of technology.
Nathaniel Ross
>angloid
>white
Been raped by Germans, Nords, French and Italians. They are too muttified to be white.
Thomas Miller
sorry gayfag, but the smartest person ever was a jewish arab named jesus. prove me wrong
Thomas Mitchell
Tesla was ultimately a loser.
Isaac Cooper
He also spent the entire second half of his life on astrology, alchemy, and long essays on interpreting the bible so...
Hunter Perry
Wrong.
The guy you meant was Gottfried Leibniz
Ryder Cruz
Leibniz and Descartes were the real geniuses of that era. Newton was just a weirdo that Venetian nobility promoted to subvert French culture to make intellectualism from England appeal to French people. There are no records to suggest he contributed anything to Mathematics. He was obsessed with Alchemy and faggotry. Well known facts here
Christopher Adams
Wtf? People haven't gotten any smarter in 300 years, or even 2000 years. If Newton was alive today he'd still be a fucking genius
Brandon Watson
so was Newton
Anthony Perry
>You can't have a culture that has no sex
What the fuck are you blathering about you illiterate nigger?
It's Christians having children while you zogbots atheists fap to nip cartoon porn.
Literally kill yourself.
Michael Hill
we actually got dumber since the victorian era
Aaron Campbell
Einstein was a minor physicist who did a plug and chug on Plank's quantum hypothesis.
Everything else he copied or took credit for: SR, GR, Bose Einstein Condensates, Brownian motion.... all done by other people.
At the time, Jews were regarded as retards and the bankers needed to be able to explain why Jews were in all the top positions of banking, government and the news media.
Enter the Einstein meme.
Gavin Fisher
Ryan Cox
Setting science back delays our self destruction.
Carter Cooper
James Clark Maxwell.
Bohr, Tesla etc. all built on his work.
Dylan Roberts
This is somewhat true, we can not know at this point who the most intelligent man who ever lived was. Was he a genius in war or science or poetry? philosophy even. But we are certain of that we know some people are smarter then others and we can mostly deduct who the most intelligent people were in history if they were public figure. This list though would take up thousands of known people in history, none of them however could be considered "the most intelligent".
Brandon Miller
the smartest man that ever lived was probably a bum or janitor, dying a lonely death of alcoholic liver cirrhosis or some such.
Joshua James
I doubt that Tesla could understand GR (discovered by Hilbert, NOT EINSTEIN).
Tesla was a just a electrical engineer who looked good standing next to Edison - who didn't do math.
Hudson Turner
Who?
Ryder Wilson
This is honestly probably true in the sense that the most intelligent man who ever lived remained unknown.
David Reyes
Literally Jewish physics. We could have flying saucers that defy gravity by now and endless energy if it wasn't for a whole field of physics falling for lies and deceit.
Christopher Rogers
He studied that, as well, yes.
While you have a god like ability to determine truth from bullshit from the ravings the the ignorant masses.
Thomas Howard
Descartes argument for why all people had the same intelligence was retarded.
Liam Smith
>smartest man
>English Christian
No, Leaf, but Newton was incredibly Intelligent, that I will not argue.
Ian Hughes
>awakens from dogmatic slumber
Gabriel James
Read file name.
Parker Gray
It was meant as a joke
Camden Cruz
I honestly believe this has a high chance of being true in some fashion.
Ethan Reyes
He was not a Christian. He was an occultist.
Ian Gonzalez
And because of all that, he would have been relentlessly bullied for being an autist who scribbles equations in chalk on the sidewalk. He would probably end up going postal and shooting up his school.
>captcha: I'm not driving under that!
Jaxon Hill
What did Leonardo da vinci actually do?
Isaiah Gonzalez

Cameron Murphy

Noah Thompson
Smart people don't work as janitors. Smart people know how to live good lives. If you find yourself as a bum you are not smart.
Matthew Allen
the bible literally said somewhere be fruitful and multiply HAVE A BUNCHA FUCKIN KIDS
Justin Campbell
>Newton
>Maxwell
Both were quite religious as well. Funny how this always bothers the fedora crowd, but the best minds in science had no trouble acknowledging metaphysics as well. Too bad contemporary Christianity is dragged down by crap like "intelligent design" theme parks and stupid fundies, to fuel fedora rage, instead of broad minded genius like these that could mentally crush twerps like Bill Nye, Dawkins, etc.
Colton White
666 ... pretty good numbers there.
Not turning the other cheek, has a computer so he didn't give up everything and wear sack cloth and sandals, having children rather than not having sex at all...
You're doing the Roman religion, not Christianity
Jaxson Turner
vN should be a household name but isn't. Sup Forums has been infected with some of the /lit/ virus and favors esoteric political philosophy over grounded rigorous mathematics.
Sup Forums might like him if they knew of him though.
