Intelligence is the ability to solve problems. The inability to solve 
a specific problem X does not prove unintelligence, as the person 
might not know enough about X to solve that problem while still 
having enough intelligence to solve it if he did know enough.

Stupidity is the unwillingness to solve problems.

Ignorance is the state of not knowing certain stated data.

A mistake is the result of an incorrect assumption, or the omission or 
something required or the addition of something not required.

These things are all different and not related to each other. None of 
them implies any other.

Which of these four are you asserting applies to me?
