    Re: Why are others so wrong?

    Robert,

    Here's some food for thought:

    I believe that there are facts and opinions. Agreed? But there is that fuzzy line between the two, theories. Theories can have 'all of the facts in the world' to back them, yet not enough to catagorize them as a fact or they wouldn't be known as theories. Then, on top of that, being bombarded by everybodies opinions only blurs the already fuzzy line it's on even more. So the once sole definite for one become the indefinite for many. So the best thing for me to do is smile with an open mind and a screen of skeptisism.

    One more thing. A quote that is ALWAYS true to the sayer and false to the said: Your entitled to your own opinion, even though it's wrong.

    Thanks.

    Re: Why are others so wrong?

    our 'intelligence'---as we assess---is the essence of two types of knowledge:knowledge (data/information) of ephemeral world& that relating to 'Reality'. knowledge of the former is easily and also verifiable, hence any argumentation on this account is futile& foolish. as about the second subject there is an unending disputation,because of the monopoly of the religions for being the sole 'agent' or the 'link' between the seeker& the seekth.but to our misfortune, all religions have different 'perceptions' about the 'reality', not any two agree on any fundamental or even basic issues concerning It. in the worldly knowledge, if some scientists differ on some issues, their differences are supported with theories/formulas/models and the day comes when all their available knowledge is pooled& a new discovery is made. so amongst the experts there can be difference of opinion but as soon an irrefutable model is translated into an invention/discovery, all are happy. problem lies with pseudo intellectuals---ignoramuses, who due to their half-baked ideas try to pollute the inspiring brains. if the raving& renting of such elements along with the religionist fundamentalists are ignored, there won't be any wrong or right, as all genuine seekers are for more and more knowledge, from which ever source it comes. little-self.
