"Prove it!"(TM)

You can't, and that's just your go to crap because you haven't the facts or the brains to back that up.   :wink:

That is always your BS response when you got nothing and KNOW I am right about something...  :wink:

One more "Prove it!"(TM).

I gave you truth, and you had no cogent response.  You have nothing with which to argue my points.  That's what happens when you rely on something being 'true' just 'cause you thunk it.   :wink:

Law of Logical Argument - Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.  ;)

"You've probably noticed that opinion pollsters go out of their way to include as many morons as possible in surveys ... I think it's dangerous to inform morons about what their fellow morons are thinking. It only reinforces their opinions. And the one thing worse than a moron with an opinion is lots of them." -- Scott Adams

In other words: Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  ;)

"Hitler is gone, but if the majority of our fellow citizens are more susceptible to the slogans of fear and race hatred than to those of peaceful accommodation and mutual respect among human beings, our political liberties remain at the mercy of any eloquent and unscrupulous demagogue." -- S. I. Hayakawa

Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Is it your position that educated people lack common sense? 
Is it your position that people who attend college are somehow..."brighter" than those who never went to college?  I know a whole bunch of people who went to college who have jobs make far less than I do....and are not contributing to our society in any good fashion.

It is my position that people that went to college aren't necessarily brighter than those that didn't, but they're certainly more educated.

Big deal, if someone is more educated in History lets say, does that make them more qualified to make common sense judgement?

That is ME's point.  Sometimes you act as if those more educated people are somehow "better" than those who may have never attended college.

the bottom line for me is.........I really don't care..........not sure why I even got involved in the pointless discussion.... :biggrin:

I'm bowing out..... :yes:

No, her point, and the one you seem to be in agreement with is that a person is either better educated or has more common sense...never both.  It is entirely possible for a person to simultaneously be more intelligent, better educated and have more common sense than someone else.  I am a perfect example of that.   :biggrin:

The "never both" point was one I was going to make myself, but I've been on the iPhone all afternoon. 

BTW, I think we're both great examples of that.  :biggrin:

Okay, you caused me to have some gag reflex with that last statement..... :no: :rolleyes: :razz:

I never said it couldn't be both.........I work with a few that fit both. 

btw, I never graduated college, but have been to numerous classes over the years, and still attend them on a somewhat regular basis.

  Would you please explain the term more educated.  Not being brighter and more educated seems to be a oxymoron statement.   :confused: :wink: :biggrin:
