I'll give you that one, darvlay. Black is the correct colour. Not the night sky, however. I might also have accepted "clear". The type of bear was indeed a polar bear. Polar bears have clear fur. It appears white because of the light reflecting of the snow. Saying they are white is like saying the sky is blue, even though we've confermed that the sky is black. I will accept black because polar bears have black skin. Look it up.

True intelligence isn't answering trite general knowledge, trick questions or brain teasers. It's solving unanswered problems, creating something new (in any field) and picking up new concepts quickly and correctly.

Can you show whether the Hodge Conjecture is true or false?
Assuming you have not, Does that mean you are not intelligent? Or not intelligent until you do?

1. God works in mysterious ways.
2. For God, everything is possible.
And if the third question were "What!?😕" rather than "What?", the answer would be "Only a true believer would understand."
