Is a scientist with an interest in art less intellectual than a pure scientist because the former wastes time with non-science? Assuming both have the same IQ.
no, just because someone doesn't devote all of their time to science and math doesn't mean anything about their intelligence. In fact, studies have shown that people who take an interest in art have a higher-than-average intelligence.

OP stated both are equally intelligence. His question is about intellectualism. Nice reading comprehension, brainlet.
A "pure scientist" is autistic and almost certainly a scientismist. That's very anti-intellectual.

Using the word "scientismist" is very anti-intellectual and autistic.
>>7783403
Don't be upset. You know what I said is true.

Isn't 'intellectualism' synonymous with 'cultured', art is normally considered 'high culture'.

But art is dead.

Just like philosophy.

>people who take an interest in art have a higher-than-average intelligence.
"higher-than-average intelligence" implies you aren't at least a hoodrat nigger or Indian poo-in-the-street caste, but that doesn't say anything about comparisons between highly intelligent individuals.
Art is gay anyway. Drawing pencil sketches etc. as a hobby to decompress is fine, but looking at pretentious shit in art galleries and acting like it's super special is stupid.

God is dead

Nietzche is dead

Agreed. Art has no application in the same way STEM fields do.

I have no words.
>>7783463
What pisses me off about the art community is how they will dismiss inspiring and detailed modern digital artwork and wank over shitty historical art or post modernist rubbish just because that's what's taught in their curricula.
Being cultured is liking whatever is the most elitist or fashionable to your hipster faculty in meme departments
>>7783474
Rather than understanding the line they tout but never seem to follow: "Beauty is in the eye of beholder." Such fucking double standards. Hypocritical hippies.

Fine, art is dead. I agree. I always knew my cousin doing a 'fine art' degree was fucking pointless, dumb bitch.
>>7783456
Low-caste Indians regularly do very well in the sciences, as a group.
>>7783485
Is modern art just some kind of tax shelter meme that we aren't aware of?

Indeed, they all have to work together to do the same work as one white man.

What is this picture trying to say? You learn order of operations in elementary school, how is there any ambiguity here?
I think you will find very few scientists without other interests. I am a biochemist and have other interests and hobbies. If I didn't the stress and pressure would drive me insane!

I see intelligence as the capability to solve problems, and smart people interested in art sems to be more creative, the creativity which is used to solve problems in a more effective way. People who only stick in facts tend to be less open minded.
