Mensa is a totally unbiased organization that has only one prerequisite for entry, an IQ at or above the 98th percentile.
Often knocked by those who have no hope of ever being accepted like Ravenwolf B, it has many SIGs (special interest groups) that offer a change of pace from the normal beer-swilling, bleep-injected conversation found in most sports bars or water cooler banter discussing the previous night's Simpson's episode, the latest video game or wardrobe malfunction on some TV show.
I don't know that the world would be any better off if everyone had a Mensa-like IQ, I just suspect it couldn't be any worse.
