Re: coulters new book... brilliant, but not her opinion

i agree to an extent. active intelligence; pure, unalloyed, responsible and wise does not foster those things, yes. but pride of intelligence, so coarse, can spawn the most bile vitriol possible.

wat i meant to say is that you are so focused on one little thing you ignore certain factors that are so blatently clear on opinions that are counter to yours chloe. often times, you talk baout things arent even feasible, exaggerating minor facts to prove a point. we are all guilty of it though. toasty is the only one around here who does it right imo. but i have made that clear before. i stand up for you when i agree, and go against when i dont. and im one of the worst baloon headed people around here, but i ask for the opposing opinion and facts, dont deny them.

Ehh...okay. You mean to tell me you never had a professor or teacher who knew shitloads but was a complete dick? If so, man i wish i went to your schools.

Ever hear of Fritz Zwicky? He's a famous astrophysicist, the guy that figured out how a supernova is formed, basically the father of dark matter - probably one the greatest minds to ever sit behind a telescope (only reason i even know this guy myself is because there's an article on him in the lastest Discover). Entire books have been written about how this guy shit on every colleague he ever had, made students flee in tears from the berating he'd give them during his classes - he was absolutely douche by all accounts. A pioneer in his field and more intelligent than you or i could ever hope to be, but a grade A dick.

Just because someone can be a raging ass doesn't make them any less intelligent.

no no, there is a difference between being a jerk and spewing out biggotry. she fits the latter category. i know plenty of jerks who i'd classify as geniuses...
