Get a fake red nose, some make up and tell your wife you're going to have an extended vacation entertaining people with the circus! After all, with a wit like that, you owe it to humanity to exhibit your fine skills. It would be a waste of talent not pursue this course of action. Ok/

Seems you don't understand much about the correlation between intelligence and chess ratings, on an online site no less, either.

It's one thing for a person to be dim and understand his limitations and quite another for a person to be dim and be oblivious to that fact like you.
i understand that i have a higher rating than you, i understand that chess is an intellectual exercise, that means you are an ultra-maroon and i am not. Clearly you are confusing the matters of intelligence and humility, you should read more, expand your vocabulary, dim is well, just sooo nineteen eighties.

What ? You are a JW. You come to our homes and tell us all sort of insightful things regarding life and the error of peoples ways and such. Are you telling me now you cant make an educated guess as to whether the JW's want everyone to think like them?

Anyone else reading this: do you think I'm being unreasonable with my line of enquiry? (just one response would do)

Tibet before the Chinese invasion was a very stratified and unjust society that explored the peasants in ways I'm sure you can't even imagine.

"Ok" in this particirlar context, (I admit i didn't explain myslef well), means "what do you think of my proposal?" (hypothetically speaking , of course- i would never dictate what you should be doing with your life)

Well, like usual, you don't understand very much and it doesn't keep you from having an opinion no matter how ill-informed. If ignorance is bliss, you must be ecstatic.

"explored"? huh?
anyway tibet was an island unto itself until it was invaded. It may not have been the best society, but it was up there. Regardless of that, it was evolving its own culture and religous pratices and serves as a great model to study because it was isloated from the rest of the world for so long.

lol, from a man-child that has a measly rating of 1674, when you manage into the 1700s, then you may instruct others with regard to the cognitive process with respect to chess. Wait a minute you could be right, Fabian the gull-a-bull has a high chess rating and hes quite moronic, i take everything back.

im allowed to think, but i thought i was a borg, part of the collective subconscious, with no will or desire of my own, no individuality, the same as everyone else, assimilated and assimilating others.

Just as a matter of curiosity. Would you consider yourself to be more or less intelligent on the whole than the JWs you have known.
