Intellectional war?

it doesnt have to be bloody
it could be exile or something
I want this to be philosophical i dont want this sent to oblivion (off topic)
but in my opinion and at the rate the world is going it will cant you see that stereotypes are becoming all realities
it sickens me i say we banish those and sprend intellectionalism across this universe otherwise mankind will be doomed
i could sit there and wait for a god to do it for me but i want to get things done before my time is done
it comes to people to change this
its just plain sick to see the dumbing down of society it doesnt have to be religious just change of society...
it used to be a good thing to be smart but in this society its looked down upon and its just stupid war is coming if no one wants to start it i will
for the betterment of mankind

lol.. people arent looked down upon for being smart.. I just cant stand people who spit out long sentences but are not willing to simplify them for the people who request clarification.. instead they just go "Idiot!"... that is not a smart person , in my opinion... thats a fool with many enemies.

lol all the same there will be a wordly revolution eventually

where do you live sat

East coast.. and I think the worldy revolution you're referring to might be a bit on the biblical side..

If you need my simple theories to be simplified, then you are not intellectually capable of examinning philosophical arguments.

then your ideas die with you, when they could have been conveyed over multiple mediums (or intellect ranges in this case).. plus it hardly takes effort.. not to mention I wasnt referring to you..its pretty generalised against most people I meet who declare themselves as being superior "Just because".. trying to supposedly "Dumbfound" you with the sheer awe of their intellect..when all they need to do is look in the mirror and see what a jerk they're being to other people.. although it is pretty funny.. it does match the way you treat others

I'm sorry, but some arguments can't be simplified without losing their meaning.

Or maybe you're afraid to simplify them because then it would be obvious that they have no meaning. And what is intellectionism?

The irony of someone posting something in the Philosophy Forum whilst using no punctuation, childish grammar and the word 'intellectional' is quite profound.

Atlas Shrugged reversed, eh?
Ayn Rand's pretty good

I beleive that all philosophical arguments can be put into general easy to understand terms that most can understand. It just might take a lot of work to get some of them that way.

No, I don't have any friends because the genius are alone

sharing interest is the aim of friendship... 🙂

Exactly, Spider. And my interests are not very common except with a few people like yourself around here. 🙂

the ability to make friends is all up to the individual, some are great making friends. Some just dont have their social antennas functioning thinking everything evolve around them all the time

Some of the greatest geniuses were without friends - like Michelangelo.

Lack of social skills and an inability to participate in positive and emotionally bonding social interaction is not a prerequisite for genius.

Are you comparing yourself to Michelangelo?

I think a genius would appreciate and acknowledge the benefits of positive social interaction on a personal scale. Friendship inspires, supports and fosters genius.

By hiding behind the personal philosophy of (and I am paraphrasing here) "I am too smart to have friends", I think that one is just showing their lack of maturity, insecurity and lack of grasp on reality. Perhaps walling oneself up in their own superiority is another technique used in this supposed "intellectual war" ?

That's just your opinion KharmaDog, Michelangelo WAS a genius and WAS ARROGANT - he had a scar on his nose to prove that, as he was hit by someone who was annoyed by his arrogance, and he said himself that he did NOT need friends. Friendship does NOT foster genius. Why is it that a lot of geniuses were recluses?
