I just don't understand it. I mean, I do understand that I am above average intelligence, but I do not feel it takes a genius such as myself to understand concepts as basic as 2+2! It must simply boil down to sheer and utter stupidity. People who do not share my worldview are simply unintelligent.
I'm right. How do I know I am right? Because as I have stated, I am more intelligent than everyone else. This means that other people are wrong. So, again, my question is, why is everyone else so dumb?

Of course you are joking. ha ha ha ha.
Someone as intelligent as you knows, of course, the value of humility.

"Because as I have stated, I am more intelligent than everyone else. This means that other people are wrong."
Congratulations, you have just made two mistakes in one sentence. The first logical flaw is the lack of evidence. You are making a generalization that every person in the world is less intelligent than you, but you haven't even met every person in the world.
Your second logical flaw is the acceptance that someone who is less intelligent cannot have a better solution to an answer than someone who is more intelligent. This is also false, as a person who is less intelligent will only require more time to reach a solution than a more intelligent person given the same knowledge. If person A has more knowledge of a certain subject than person B, than B may have the highest IQ in the world, but A may find a better solution.
I assume you have not clearly considered your arguments. Assuming that a person with higher intelligence has higher brain activity and could possibly (but not required) act more cautiously when forming arguments, I am now questioning your intelligence.

Well how does a person that knows everything know that they know nothing?
This is all a matter of perspective. You are as smart as you claim; yet from the perspective of another, you are void of any intellect by the mere claim of your intelligence. It is the humble that become the sage, and the loud that becomes the jester. It appears that you are frustrated, so why do you stick around the less intellectual – is it to acquire a sense of power? If by chance you feel that your company or surrounding isn’t offering you the necessary stimulation to satisfy you, why not become involved with something that will fulfill that missing need?

ok- so you are the smartest person in this world, when are you letting out your secret to the cure for cancer, and death?
Unintelligent? Or just ignorant. You have a case of the IDONTKNOWS. You don't know, what it is you don't know.
There was only one man who walked this earth who has the right to claim anyone is dumb, and he never bashed anyone for being dumb, in fact, he healed them. It sounds like you need some healing in your life for your anger and your pious attitude. By the way- since no one answered this the last time you asked the question, I don't think you will be giving out any points for this one either. We are too dumb to answer your question. The Bible says you "ought not think more highly of yourself than you are". You are sinning.

When I read a small minded and poorly thought out question like this I often wonder, what’s this world coming to? Is this foolishness really acceptable? Surly, folks of your mentality are destined to be sniveling welfare mongers vomiting partially digested vodka into the gutter of some nameless ghetto street somewhere. It saddens me deeply to see our society has accepted such mediocrity as the norm. Anyway I pity you, you tiny little speck of humanity. Please, for the sake of humanity finish high school, get a real job and whatever you do, don’t reproduce!

What is the measure you are using to say that you are more intelligent. What is your world view ? What makes you so sure that people dont share your view. In fact many people believe that they are superior and geniuses without anyone else acknowledging it. Genius is very rarely not acknowledged
by others and almost always never self-declared in words.

You are a moron. You get off on being a pompous a$$ spouting off about how doggone smart you are. Pretty funny....those with actual intelligence very rarely gloat or even speak about it.
And I seriously doubt that you are smarter than Stephen Hawking, Albert Einstein, etc or even the "average" human being.
Get over yourself and for crying out loud, go play a video game or something & stop posting this crap.

Interesting because I would say that anyone narrow-minded enough to think they know everything and can’t learn from others is stupid. Wow amazing how there are so many different views out there huh. Well as I am evidently a person with a different view than yours I must be an idiot, a moron, unintelligent, slow, dim-witted, heck I am downright obtuse aren’t I? (Never mind I got my Masters at 23). Since I am obviously dense please take pity on me and ignore my incoherent babbling.

To put it mildly, I oftentimes use the word Halfwits (usually between my teeth, and with a very low key to it), but only for these guys bright women use to reproduce mindlessly our own unhappy species. Should you think of establishing a fraternity, you just count me in, lol.
