aztecs vs. greeks

I believe that Charles Murray is right to a certain extent. He makes a valid point in that people of exceptionally high intelligence need to use their knowledge for the greater good. Their knowledge should not go un-used and un-appreciated, but only if they are using it to benefit the greater society. People with exceptional intelligence are blessed and should share their blessing with others. Therefore, they should be allowed to attend a different school to hone their talents, but a school that teaches and helps the students to use their talents for useful and beneficial activities.
What happens to those people who are not exceptionally gifted intellectually? They should definitely not be ignored! There needs to be a balance created between the two groups of people to great stability and harmony. A world with only intellectually gifted people would not only be boring but there would be no means for which to measure growth and learning, everyone would be the same. Each person has a gift, talent, opinion, etc. and whether they are intellectually gifted or not everyone is important to the progress of society. Everyone has something to give and should give it! It is not possible to ignore the greater percentage of society and look down upon them. Society should also strive to push for excellence in those people not exceptionally gifted. This way society can grow, develop, progress, and become balanced.
So yes, I do agree with Murray that those people who are blessed with exceptional talents should hone their skills and use them to be beneficial. But, I disagree that all attention should only be focused on those exceptionally intellectual. That would mean the rest of the population is “wasted.” Everyone should receive special attention and equal opportunities specified to their talents. This way everyone can benefit from those exceptionally gifted people ad flourish on their own.
