You get to see how intelligent or, for lack of the will to find a better word for them, stupid people are.
I like how people claim things, that are the exact opposite from what it really is.
I do have some questions for you guys. Is stupidity inherited, or do you really just choose to be stupid. This is half a stab at the stupid people, and half a legit question. Whether I want to be ignorant towards something or not, if I don't fully know something, I research it. Am I the only one that naturally has the desire to do that or what. |

Depends. Obviously being ignorant and/or arrogant are choices. But if you simply have ADD or ADHD and cannot focus too long on acting smart, this happens.

I am being tested for ADD. So obviously my previous theory was incorrect.
New theory - Stupidity is a choice.

| I completely understand where you are coming from with this topic. I feel that people base their beliefs not on logical reasoning or evidence, but on what others say because they want to fit in. They are afraid to be different. Most people simply are not looking for the truth, but or comfort. |

Is it though? I feel as though to a degree it could be inherited, or just coded into you.
Perhaps I just don't understand how people would want to live their lives ignorant and stupid. |

When I say stupidity, I basically mean ignorance. With minor exceptions.
To put it simply, basically a mix of stupidity and Ignorance. Like when people think they're right, but they're always wrong. |

| Also, people latch onto a belief and it becomes a part of them, inseparable despite all evidence. You cannot reason with those who base their convictions on faith. It is futile. If you are going to argue about anything, you should attempt to show them that faith is not a virtue. "Your ignorance is showing." |

This is going to be one of those rare moment's that I actually throw out a religious post. Fair warning.
In my opinion, those who actually believe in books such as the Bible, and it's other variants, are flat out stupid. I can't comprehend how you can believe in that. It defies all logic. It truly does. I can rant about this for hours and hours, however I firmly dislike publicly announcing my religious believes. As far as I'm concerned, you have your beliefs and I have mine. Keep yours to yourself, and i'll keep mine to myself.
There's nothing I hate more in this world then Religion, and the fact that religious people think they can control other people because of their own beliefs. It disgusts me.
If that offends you, I apologize. This is not targeted at any specific person, simply the ones who act as I described above. |
