Your so-called "database of information" could contain not only your knowledge of subjects but also other data. This is not a criterion for intelligence. The fact that you have gained some experience certainly says something, but the way you boast about it speaks to its imperfection.
A person has the right to sacrifice themselves in the name of their moral convictions. No one is forcing you to consume ZP, so don't eat it. But don't dictate to others how they should act.
Okay.
Give me a criterion for intelligence and a clear, consistent, and singular definition of intelligence. In your own words. I'll give you a hint: from your words, it follows that learning does not develop intelligence.
Okay, but if my moral convictions say that "I cannot, by action or inaction, allow harm to be done to a person"? What then, whose moral laws are stronger?

I meant that sitting at a desk and satisfying one's personal ambitions is not the basis of knowledge.

And if you say that knowledge is only achievable through direct experiment, I will send you to the works of THEORETICAL physics.

And if you decide to deny the value of THEORETICAL physics, I will ask you to erase from the surrounding space everything that uses electromagnetic waves, including the microwave, because the properties of electromagnetic waves were predicted theoretically long before their practical discovery.
