Of course, they have studied some people who are autistic or mentally challenged, and found some to be prodigies in music and other functions of the left part brain.
I, myself went to school for social work and my math skills are a laugh. Math only answers one part of the world, I bet there are many authors who are able to deal with languages better then most. We need all kinds of brilliant people in all subjects, and I am glad of it.
Good question.

I have been reported for asking for prayer for other people and even reported after I got best answer. I reported 2 people men because they were very verbally abusive with my question and sexually perverted. I am a married woman and would havenone of that. I also took the liberty of blocking these people as well. I have learned choose only the battles to fight that you are wiling to lose. Pick and choose your battles carefully. No when to stand up for yourself and when to back off. Also I do give thumbs down to mean or sacrastic answers, but the report button I only use when the person is blanatnly abusive and I have wrote my reasons why. This is a relgion and spirituality forum where people come to learn and grow and ask questions that they may not be able to ask or feel comfortable asking anyone else. There is enough hurt, meanness and negativity in the world without adding to this to the R7S forum. Yes I am a christian. But that does not mean I have the right to be superior or act like I am better than anyone else. We are all called to love and encourage oneanother and I remind that to my nephew and nieces when they fight as well. People are reporting people yes but that is only a temeporary fix revenge is sweet but frogivness is even sweeter we need to pray for those on line who are hostile and reporting others simply because they did not like what they wrote. I say it is a temprary fix because it gives a sense of satifcation that the person got back at the person who worte the question but does not fix the heart condition. Peace this was a beautiful post thank you e4g

Absolutely. It boils down to the fact that everyone has unique talents and gifts.
You can be brilliant in a creative sense: think about artists, who have come up with and created beautiful and interesting things for all of humanity. Same goes for authors.
Some people are gifted at remembering lots of facts and data.

if by smart you mean intelligent, then of course. Idiot savants are excellent in one one area, but considered mentally retarded in other area's. Everyone is good in some areas and bad in others. In fact in most cases if someone tried to learn everything then they could never be excellent in one area. The brain capacity just isn't there.

Sure, math is important, but not everyone's "forte", one can still excel in other ways. They may not be able to "do the math" on paper, but in practical situations, they really can. I believe in cases like that, the person leads themself to believe they are not good at math, but they truly are. It's a self-fulfilling prophesy.

Mos Def! Math is only something to make people feel comfortable... so the world can explain itself to itself... if you ask me, the people who ARE great at math are the ones who are being fooled...

most definately. math is not the definitive subject as to whether one is genius or not. besides peoples minds are geared towards different things.
