Only if you have compelling evidence - otherwise, no matter how smart you think you are, you would just be guessing.

it's your duty as a crime fighter.
by Vaporeongirl on November 10th, 2009
Of course not, I solve mysteries all the time.

Using Intelligence and reasoning?! To solve a mystery!?! Egads! That's madness! IT's insanity!...but my dear Watson, that might just work!
by Sharona Life is a Tale Told by an Idiot on November 12th, 2009
This is very mysterious, but I think it's the good idea most times.
by iwnit on November 12th, 2009
Yes. You could see it as a game or you could have some particular interest to do it.
And if you have enough intelligence, you will also know when the search does not make sense any more, or when it starts to be dangerous or inappropriate.
Some mysteries are better let alone...

sounds like a great way to use intelligence and reasoning
by Symbeline on November 10th, 2009
Sounds fine to me. Besides, how else would one solve a mystery?
Without hiring a private eye, that is.
by RosieGHM Jetpacker on November 11th, 2009
No. Unless you are evil and use intelligence/reasoning to harm others. Then it is wrong! :)
by dumdum on November 11th, 2009
I think my "intelligence and reasoning" may be faulty, may not be up to the task - but may be amoung my first choices. +5
by PrairieWind on November 11th, 2009

ICY, if its wrong, then police detectives have been shameful for many, many years.

Mysteries are solved using intelligence and reasoning.
by A Rock In Woolfs Clothing on November 11th, 2009
How odd? The answer would seem to be no by default. Of course there is lots to be said for intuition.
by CatLover-The Original is Proudly Canadian on November 10th, 2009
How else would I solve a mystery? I can't use someone elses intelligence or reasoning so I have to use mine. If you have it, you need to use it. If you don't, you don't realize it anyway LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
by Thriftymaid on November 11th, 2009
nah
Do you want your leader to be smart,intelligent or average? Does intelligence intimidate,average comfort? Which would make you prouder?

Which word could you put instead of the last word in the sentence:
"Do you realize that much of what you write here is unintelligible?"

Do you think the IQ test is an accurate measurement of intelligence, or is intelligence more complicated than that? What is intelligence?
