Some people DO learn faster then others, but you can also get your learning game way better.

My take:
Most people believe in science as a religion, and don't realize it.

Here here, though the children and language thing is sorta odd. As a child it is an imperative that you learn language, and thus you have no choice but to be good at it. For adults who already know a language, this isn't true, so they do not have to be good at learning a second language. I would makes the statement "kids are better at leaking language" a defacto truth.

Idk bout the intelligence point, I know there’s truth to it I just don’t know to what degree. I think most everyone if given the right environment, opportunities, development, etc. can all be insanely smart. Further, any difference in intelligence after such an ideal situation would be negligible and/or any differences in intelligence would actually only serve to accent and supplement each other as everyone has fresh insights, experience, and perspectives to share as well as differing more readily available ways of looking at problems and grasping the true nature of things. We also have to remember that many kids, even in the United States, grow up with insufficient nutrition to get proteins and such essential for optimal brain development and function. Many kids grow up with toxic parents and cultures and ideals that don’t idealize intelligence. People may also grow up thinking or being told they aren’t smart to which they then seek to validate themselves in other areas instead of working at their intelligence. Even the smartest people, have opinions that are really misinformed. There are many ideas and strategies for thinking that aren’t readily at their command. They can often downplay the intellectual merit of people from down trodden communities who may have difficulty expressing their intelligence and/or have disillusionment with our institutions and don’t even bother with putting in the effort to engage with intellectuals who they think won’t hear what they have to say anyway. C’mon now, we can’t discredit the millions of years of human evolution. In my opinion, we’re all smart. ‘Dumb people’ may have just had lives of stagnation. We’re willing to believe that a person can suffer their whole life in a slum in another part of the world. THEIR situation is somehow justified. But ‘dumb people’, people who may have grown up with different circumstances and parents and communities—their condition isn’t given sympathy?

I don't get the language statement. Since when do children beat adults in language mastery? Or do you mean languages starting from the second one?
