Do you think that everyone has the capability to be as intelligent as Albert Einstein, Leonardo Da Vinci, Sir Isaac Newton or any other great person? Why or why not?

Absolutely not. Intelligence is genetic to one degree or another.

Absolutely not. Intelligence is genetic to one degree or another.

A persons environment and motivation to do something goes a long way. We are all made to adapt, and all of our brains can do nearly the same things.

I'm talking about healthy people without brain damage. Brain damage isn't always disabling though.

Yes this is definitely true as well. However, studies on heritability have shown that certain aspects of intelligence are inborn.

I think that people can do what ever they put their minds to, but if they could do that then we would be in a better place (smarter place) that is. But people are to damn lazy to do it anyways, so don't think so, haha

People don't imply themselves as much as they did. I know Einstein and Newton were solitary people that use to sit in rooms by themselves for days to figure out problems. Hardy anyone know a days have that kind of discipline and motivation to do such.
