Intellect should
always
be your primary. No exceptions. Haste is next. Re-gemming is expensive, and so any new upgrades should be gemmed for Int first.

No no no, keep gemming full out haste - the meta gem just makes haste even better.'

By your own graphic, Intellect beats everything.

Actually, by that graph 1 int isbetter than 1 haste, but when you gem you get 2 haste per 1 int in equivalency - so by that graph haste is better than int (though it will not remain so, as the stats are, of course, symbiotic - the more haste you get the better int gets and vice versa)
We do, however, not have any idea whatsoever what the graph is showing in relation to gearing - no background information, no stat amount information, no nothing.
(Its actually become the norm, making loads of "advice" absolutely useless)

I've linked to these forums before. They have done all the number crunching.

As you can see, if Int is normalized to 1.00 Pseudo Points, then Haste is worth 0.63.
Icy Veins concurs.

Icy Veins goes into further detail about gems and enchants, noting iLevel <= 505 and > 505

My point being that you should know your class, or at the very least, know where to find out about your class.

Even if there is theorycraft elsewhere, it doesn't really excuse just throwing out someting without any sort of reference.
And it still doen't say what the linked picture shows - it doesn't agree with your pseudopoints, so we stil have no idea how the values were created.
Also, "you should know your class" - well thats sort of half the point of the forums, helping people to know their class - and they don't get to know their class by being show a picture with no reference.
An as for "at the very least, know where to find out about your class" - well this is the priest forum, no? is this the wrong place to go for assistance about playing a priest?
Really, if you want to help people, help them, don't just give a statement, that doesn't help them, it hardly ever even answers the specific question, and that there are otehr dedicated forums for some classes does not mean that people know these exist, none of them are official, and the game doesn't link to them, and neither, I may add, does wowhead (in other words, stop excusing bad posting habits by saying someone else did the work elsewhere).
