Intelligence in one area is evidence of intelligence in another, but not infinite evidence. Problem dissolved.
You are defining imply such that X implies Y means that if X happens Y always occurs, whereas I'm defining imply to mean that if X happens Y is more likely to occur than if X didn't happen. In this context my interpretation is better since yours renders MartinB's statement trivially true and therefore vacuous.
Edit: I misinterpreted Oscar's comment.
That's exactly what I intended to mean (my comment wasn't intended to support MartinB over you).
