Hey, you're the one that just called all Christians and Muslims sheep...not me.
Thats expected of you though.
I never understood why so many people, particulary in America had this immense dislike of Christians. Never understood it, seriously.
But after speaking to you, I can fully understand why that is, and I offer my apology to Adam_PoE, OBLh, Tex and few others who I endlessly questioned as to why they are not too keen on Christians or religious people in general.

women.
Interesting logic. So how does interest equate to intelligence?

Isn't she right though?
People are in fact all sheep, in groups people are idiots... They follow what a popular person says just to be able to fit in. Children do go to church because their parents do, children do get in contact with religion because of their parents. You can hardly say their parents have nothing to do with it.
However saying that they are wrong is something that goes to far.
Saying they are following a large pacts of lies and misunderstandings in an organisation that was founded on corruption, war, power and the want for money would be correct

Well, isn't that nice? You set up for yourself a real nice world-view
where-by no matter what happens, no matter how much men
continue to show greater interest in science and engineering and
greater probability in inventing and discovering things, no matter
how much little boys continue to show markedly different behavior
than little girls despite attempts to encourage them to behave the
same way, you will always be able to just blame it on the
big bad "male-dominated" culture.Even in work situations where the woman holds a position higher
than a man's if anything happens it's the man's fault because men
still have "cultural superiority" over women.Ooooo, you girls are so cute when you try to witty and insulting.
you're not reading my post objectively, which makes it rather hard communicating with you. I'll give it one more try though.
my world-view is by no way used as an excuse to bash men or claim that the two genders are completely the same in every aspect. I really did my best to express that in my last post and I do believe that you'd understand it if only you wanted to. you just strike me as being determined to draw some very strict lines here for the sake of the argument. I'm not ignorant to the fact that men and boys have different interests from women and girls. on the other hand, I'm not ignorant to the fact that interests can be influenced by society. for example; men didn't use to take care of children, course society didn't urge them to. now they work in kinder gardens and as teachers. once, women didn't have anything to do with politics. now they're becoming politicians. it hasn't got anything to do with intelligence. it's got everything to do with the opportunities and encouragements society gives you. this is the fact you,in your eager pursuit of ... yes, what?, choose to ignore. that's why I was marvelling at your lack of interest in how things work. an interest you just claimed was a typically male thing.
edit: forgot to reply to this part. guess the stupidity of it just sort of made me ignore it. it's not the woman's fault because the man is culturally superiour? you have statistics on that to back you up? course I find it extremely hard to believe it being anything but a product of your own prejudice.
oh god. you just did not call Link a kid when you yourself use that kind of kinder garden rhetoric?

Excellent reply, Line. As always.

I have never once come across a woman who has this enlightened way of thinking that everyone talks about. Saying that woman do equally as good at school and working, and that they know whats right and wrong, insinuates to me that men can only focus on one issue at a time. This argument is like me saying that men are the smartest gender because through history the smartest people have always been Men. See, i think one day long ago. Woman probably were smarter than men, but after the whole woman's lib thing, they have taken on to many characteristics from the Y chromosome

Men can do stuff females cann't as well.... ( Playing football with out hurting themselves critically).... Women are too emotional and are bad leaders in most cases...And are you saying that men don't know from right and wrong and are you saying that men don't perform well at work because that's what i got.... any way Men have advantages and so do women... and this has nothing to do with the intelligence of a man or woman now that i'm reading back on it.....

great reply line... and i do agree...
but i also see where he's coming from...
nowadays, there will always be women who begrudge men, especially in the workplace... when a man beats a woman to a promotion, "oh, its cos hes a man," not because he deserved it... i know thats not always the case but i have seen it happen...

Why would ANYONE even care? Big deal, some women are smart, some are thick, some men are smart, some are thick.To think that one is mostly smarter than the other is an absurd notion, it has no use, function or purpose.
What if women were a bit msarter on the whole than men? Does that suddenly make the crack whore on the corner of Smith Street more brainy than most men? Seriously, HOW would this data be any more useful if we actually took the time to do it?
Also, men and women think differently in general - how can you compare one to the other when there is no proof over which way of thinking is best? Bullshit if you ask me.
Take the oh so ancient "women drivers vs men drivers" debate. I remember seeing one insurance company (forget the name) show a report about why mens premiums are always higher. It isn't because men are worse drivers, it's because men have different kinds of accidents to women. Men tend to have accidents at high speed (because of aggression, and showing off), while women have low speed (less expensive) accidents like parking mishaps and shunts (lack of skill) but the AMOUNT of accidents is equal. Both have equal incompetance in different areas. So even though men have higher premiums, they ARE NOT worse drivers, in general. FACT.
That kinda illustrates my point - we are too different species and shouldnt really be comparred so wildly. We're equal, but we'll never be the same.
This entire post is awesome, structured well and puts the point across perfectly. Just thought a little praise was deserved....
And I literally nodded at my computer screen in agreement with this; We're equal, but we'll never be the same. A-f.ucking-men.
