1. I believe that the overall premise of this article is that society believes that intelligence is not the same, or as desirable, or often available in the same person at the same time, as goodness. The author uses several references to literature to back his points. Many of the heroes/heroines in his examples are good, but not intelligent, while the intelligent people are often the villains. This article makes an incredible argument that it is possible and desirable to be BOTH intelligent and good. They can come together.
