So far, from what I can tell from Binet, Piaget, Terman, Spearman, Wechsler et. al. "intelligence" can be distilled to read, "do you think as I do". To the degree that you do then I consider you intelligent or less intelligent. This is the essence of what I read "between the lines" of intelligence testing.

Dear Tipsters,
As a historical note, my understanding is that "intelligence" is dervied from the Latin "inter legens" that means "between reading" or loosely "reading between the lines".
You might enjoy seeing how this idea applies to various uses of the term "intelligence". Using a phrase that was applied to perception, it means "going beyond the information given". Do you think that this should be applied to emotiona, social, spiritual etc?
But of course that's just my opinion...or is it?
