Default Re: Gods and Demigods - not really that smart

I think you might want to break out wisdom (or in GURPS terms, Common Sense) from smarts here. A lot of gods seem reasonably intelligent, but prone to making terrible life choices due to lust, anger, or other human vices. Not too many of them just get fooled or outwitted unless it's a story specifically about a trickster figure. (And said trickster figures are often the ones making poor life choices as well...)
