Biggrin Steve Urkel VS Albert Eistein

Who had higher IQ and who do you think is smarter Steve Urkel with his whacky inventions just to impress a girl who did not like him, or Albert Einstein ???

Considering Steve Urkel once aspired to acquire the brains of Albert Einstein to impress a college review board, I believe it was, (but hilariously wound up turning into Elvis Presley instead)- I would definitely give Albert Einstein the edge on this. Not to mention that Einstein made actual real life contributions to physics and Steve Urkel is just a fictional character with inventions on the show that are not quite possible in real life.

The only thing steve urkel made on family matters that was possible for the future was the electric skateboard motor scooter you see him ride it in the 4th season episode surely you joust.

Well, both left an intelligent woman, who really loved him, for a silly bitch, for whom I have no respect at all. (Damn it, I've never thought about that similarity between them before! ) So I guess intelligence doesn't equal common sense.

I think albert eistein would be jealous mad and shocked that a nerdy misfit teenager aka steve urkel could invent all those inventions that scientist today cant even build for example a robot and time travel a black guy named ronald malett is trying to find a way to travel back into the past a guy his age still thinks time travel is possible lol, albert eisten said nothing is faster then the speed of light his theory would change quickly once he meets steve urkel who invented time travel lol

Then again, Steve Urkel is a fictional character. But some of the things, which only were science fiction back in Albert's days, have become reality now.

I also must say that Albert definately was a "misfit" as well. Even if we disregard how he treated both his wives (although that alone is an interesting story), he was hardly more normal than Steve.

I think steve urkel character was suppose to be like albert einstein both of their IQ's were high off the charts they were eccentric hard working and both had bad luck with women, family matters is a fictional TV show where anything is possible i would have like to see a episode where steve eddie and carl go back in time to see Albert Eistein while he was still alive could have been a good episode.

Bad luck with women? I would rather say that Mileva had the bad luck of falling in love with Albert, and Myra had bad luck of falling in love with Steve.

But he did find her attractive, already on their first blind date. But he also had a hard time getting over Laura.

Newsflash!

After having done some research about psychopathy, I have to say that Albert Einstein showed many such tendencies. He seems to have been almost a textbook example of a psychopath. In the beginning, they often seem charming, even though some people can detect a creepy chill in them. But when you try to live your life with them, you're in for a hell on Earth. They need to control you, and they will do so with violence, if they feel that they have to. Both of Albert Einstein's wives had to learn this the hard way. He showered you with love in the beginning, only to reveal his disgusting sides later on. While I don't remember if Albert really had control issues, he seemed to lack any empathy, or sense of responsibility and regret, which is typically psychopathic. And he ended up giving both his wives a list of degrading demands, which are just chocking to read. He might also have beaten Mileva Maric, his first wife! Albert was also sexually promiscuous and easily got bored with women, which also seems to be common among psychopaths. Mileva eventually left him, but still remained financially dependent on him for the rest of her life. Elsa Löwenthal (his second wife) loved sharing his fame, so she never left him, although I wonder how happy she really was.

But where does this leave us with Steve Urkel? Well, while he might have lacked some "people skills", he sure was no psychopath. He genuinely cared about people's feelings, and he actually had a few scruples about hurting Myra, when he finally had a chance to be with Laura. So while his "love" for Laura boardered on being pathological, and while my sympathy lies with Myra, Steve comes across as more sane and a better person than Albert Einstein.
