is intelligence intrinsically arrogant, or is that just a lower class american thing? either way, i am definitely getting a kick out of the people who are trying to be superior to everyone else today. and before somebody gets bold enough to scream pot calling a kettle black on this one, im just going to clear up that i operate in ideas, and theory, not knowledge. knowledge is presumptuous. i dont make presumptions, and i dont assume. i think, and i encourage others to think. that is all any of this is. everything is subject to change. and what we understand as knowledge is nothing more than a string of probabilities, hypothesis, and theories. as we gain more knowledge, those probabilities, hypothesis, and theories evolve. that means that knowledge is liquid. that means that everything you hold to be true is, in reality, only as true as you, and your subjective peer group, believe it to be. reality is perspective based. if you need proof of that, you need look no further than your own community. human nature is hubris, that is the greatest truth that i have found. this could all be over in an instant, and you wouldnt even realize it.
