Kids and men

What is a “broader intelligence”?

One that is more holistic and less specialized.

Of course, having a specialized knowledge is vital to one's career path and is great for your interests... But it is vital for voters and citizens to also have a really great knowledge of their civilization, their culture, and their history.

The poem could have just as easily been a poem about a father speaking to his child. At the end he could have easily said:
"you'll be an adult, my child" or something to that effect.

Is that really so difficult for you to comprehend?

During Jesus ministry, when he was on earth, he used words claiming to be sent by God. Was he correct?

Now you are talking about knowledge. Do you realise that knowledge is not the same thing as intelligence?

Did you mean broader intelligence or broader knowledge?

Don't get Philokalia started on the intelligence of black people ~ he'll start talking about cannibalism again.

My previous post was spot-on - his "scenario" not withstanding.

GoaD continues to operate at the level of a young teen as demonstrated by pretty much every post he makes on this forum - including this latest - and deceit has been part and parcel of his MO since he started trolling this forum.

Same movie. Over and over again.

The reality is that KA is certainly much more of an adult than GoaD and certainly has a better understanding of spirituality than GoaD.

While I have your attention ToO, when Jesus said he was sent by God, was he speaking truthfully?

Take your time. I know it's a tricky one.

You're finding forward planning when there wasn't any.

The OP had nothing to do with Jesus, just a follow on from other threads where Karoly thinks of himself as the adult. But of course, you knew that already.

Fake praise is no praise at all.

right and wrong. i don't plan, i dream but it was about jc's example

So when you wrote this in your OP, 'Does anyone know what it means to be a man?' you were thinking of Jesus?

It wasn't just a continuation of you dismissing your detractors as kids? Is that what you're telling me?

yes, I was thinking of Jesus' example. Do I have to repeat myself always?

Thats cool, you gotta be hated before you can be loved.

You're lying. I'm not a psychologist.

edit: and you are a psychologist, even if it is just an armchair psychologist ... hey man, it;s ok ... so am I 😉
