Quote from Free Thinker:
not surprising . it might require you to think accept unpleasnt conclusions. cant have that now can we?
I can accept unpleasant conclusions. I can't accept stupid conclusions argued from false premises. I'm leaning toward your link being an example of the latter.
and yet you are afraid to look at a simple youtube video?Quote from logic_man:
In college, I studied Classics, i.e. I know Ancient Greek and Latin. I also taught myself German and a little Italian. I also can read French at near-fluency.
I read Plato, Aristotle, Heraclitus, Homer, Thucydides, Sophocles, Aeschylus, Caesar, Virgil, Ovid, Lucretius and many others IN THE ORIGINAL LANGUAGE.
I read Heidegger and Dostoyevsky for fun.
What do you read? The New York Times? It's written at about a 9th grade level, so I can see that.
Oh, and on top of that, I got an MBA at one of the world's top-ranked business schools after getting bored with the academic parts of Classics.
You really think you're smarter than me? You really think you've done more "thinking" than me?

Not afraid, just sure it will be a waste of time.
And you didn't answer my question. What's the objective proof that you're smarter and done more thinking than me? You seem pretty sure of it, so let's hear your proof. These things aren't all subjective. If you are so smart, surely society has recognized it in some way, right?

No, it's just pearls before swine.
Still waiting on just what social proof you have of your brilliance.

No. For example, I don't care what you think, I just want to rub my superior credentials in your face.
There's a world of difference between thinking you are smart and having people give you things like scholarships and jobs because you are smart and those people want the benefit of those smarts. My life has been filled with the latter since childhood.
