The world’s smartest human has admitted that God not only exists, but he can prove it through math.
South Korean scientist YoungHoon Kim, 36, said he holds the current record for the world’s highest IQ at 276, an achievement recognized by the World Mind Sports Council.
Any IQ score over 140 is considered ‘genius’ level intelligence, with great thinkers such as Albert Einstein and Professor Stephen Hawking reportedly having IQs around 160.
Kim, an AI researcher and entrepreneur who holds a theology degree from Seoul’s Yonsei University, regularly posts on social media that science can prove God exists and was the starting point of our universe.
On December 11, his latest viral post on Instagram gave a simple message about the existence of God, stating: ‘God is real 100 percent and Jesus is God.’
Kim has also claimed that faith in Jesus has a direct connection to how intelligent, creative, and successful someone can become.
However, the ‘world’s highest IQ person’ has also made some controversial remarks, including that Jesus will return in 10 years and claiming homosexuality is a sin.
In one of his most viewed social media posts, Kim released a three-minute video on YouTube claiming that the existence of God could be proven mathematically with three simple facts.
‘A line cannot start without a first point. Think about drawing a line on a piece of paper. In geometry, every line has to begin with at least one point. Without that first point, there is no line at all,’ Kim said in a September 4 video.
‘The same is true with existence. If there was never a starting point, then nothing could have ever begun. But we clearly see that life and the universe exist. So, there must have been a first point, the starting point that set everything in motion,’ Kim continued.
Kim then explained that you cannot cross an endless past, meaning that if time had no beginning and went backwards forever, we could never have reached ‘today.’
He compared it to never being able to finish counting down to zero if you started from negative infinity with no first number.
The world’s smartest man concluded by revealing that multiplication shows power must come from somewhere, meaning that if you keep multiplying by one forever, you always stay at just one and nothing new or bigger ever appears.
So, for the universe to start and grow into everything we see, a greater power must have stepped in from outside to create and multiply it all.
‘The only explanation that fits all three is a first cause starting point. Necessary, powerful, timeless, and intelligent. And this is exactly what we mean when we say God exists,’ Kim said in the video that’s been viewed over 218,000 times.
As for his latest post claiming Jesus is God, Kim has repeatedly posted that Jesus is not only God transformed into a man, but was also more intelligent than anyone else who has ever lived.
‘No Einstein. No Newton. Only Jesus is the Smartest Man in the History of the World,’ he posted in November.
Kim was not the first highly intelligent person to claim to have knowledge of the divine.
Chris Langan, an American horse rancher who allegedly has an IQ between 190 and 210, has claimed to know what happens after we die.
The 73-year-old said created a hypothesis called the Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe (CTMU), which allegedly ‘explains the connection between mind and reality.’
He believed that when people die, they transition from one form of existence to another within the computational structure of reality, meaning the consciousness, or ‘soul,’ moves to another dimension that we cannot access while living on Earth.
It’s not clear what that new dimension would look like, or what happens to the ‘soul’ once it arrives there. However, Langan said traditional views of heaven and hell were too simplistic and that the afterlife was more like a new state of being.
Kim has echoed these comments, stating that: ‘If reality is part of something bigger, then death is not the end, but a transition.’
He added that while traditional science believes the brain stops when consciousness disappears, quantum physics has suggested that information never disappears and changes in form.
‘If our consciousness is quantum information it may continue after the body is gone.’
