Theory: Everyone is the same

The Everyone is the same theory is the third theory of intelligence. It supposes the fact that everyone has the same level of intelligence (say, 5) and that all variations in intelligence are so small that the can only be represented by fractions. According to the Von Rauschenburg Principle, 5 is never 12, and therefore nobody can have an intelligence level of 12. However, as an intelligence level of 12 is necessary to understand fractions, the use of fractions to denote different levels of intelligence is irrelevant and therefore everyone can be assumed to have the same level of intelligence. This theory has been proved incorrect by the Law of Brian.

Scientific Testing
After extensive scientific testing of the Everyone Is The Same Theory, it has been shown that when subjected to a basic survey of intelligence, the theory is empirically false. The test used was as follows:


 * A sample of people were asked what their own intelligence level was
 * If they answered 5, they could be assumed to fit within the theory
 * If they answered something lower or higher, they could be assumed to be lying and actually have an intelligence level of 5, or to have an intelligence level lower than 5 and therefore not comprehend the concept of intelligence levels and were just uttering random words out of their mouth.
 * If they did not give a numerical answer, they could be assumed to have an intelligence level of less than 5, as they obviously do not understand intelligence levels.

The hypothesis of this test was, of course, that all respondents would respond with the number 5. However, after the test was carried out, it was found that all respondents had answers that were not 5. Therefore, pending the approval of the great philosophers with intelligence levels of 5, it can be assumed that this theory is not correct. But what does it matter- we don't have an intelligence level high to know what it meant anyways.

Exceptions to the Theory
After scientific testing, it has been determined that there is a paradoxical exception to the theory that may occur from time to time. See Simon.

Disproof
The theory was proved to be incorrect by the Law of Brian, because to be dumb, percussionists must have less intelligence then someone else, otherwise there are not dumb, going against the law. If this theory were true, percussionists would cease to exist, and since this has not happened, we can conclude that this theory is incorrect.
