World’s Smartest Man Professes Christian Faith On Social Media
As the world’s highest IQ record holder, I believe that Jesus Christ is God, the way and the truth and the life.'
The man with the highest reported IQ in the world has gained attention worldwide after publicly proclaiming his Christianity on social media.
On June 17, South Korean scientist YoungHoon Kim, who claims he has an IQ of 276, the highest IQ ever recorded, posted on X: “As the world’s highest IQ record holder, I believe that Jesus Christ is God, the way and the truth and the life.”
His post has received 14 million views and a quarter-million likes as of Thursday, June 19.
Kim’s claim to being the world’s highest IQ record holder has been verified by organizations such as the Giga Society, Mensa, World Memory Championships, World Memory Sports Council (in partnership with Guinness World Records), and Official World Record.
Kim, responding to the tremendous popularity of his original post, said in another X post on June 19 that he “will use this opportunity to lead many souls to God.”
“Amen. Christ is my logic,” Kim, 36, said in another response to a commenter on X.
The Catholic Church teaches that God’s existence can be known through reason alone, as stated in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (No. 36): “God, the first principle and last end of all things, can be known with certainty from the created world by the natural light of human reason.”
