I have often wondered why some educated people fail to recognize the simple and obvious connections between what they proclaim and the reality that everyone else sees, except them. I came to the conclusion long ago that a degree is no guarantee of its holder’s intelligence, however one may define it. I have reasons for this, even though I am an academic myself.
No, I’m not bragging, because there’s no reason to. I had to spend nine semesters in school, but the high standard of the university in what is supposedly the most difficult degree program in the People’s Republic of Poland gave me a solid foundation for my professional career, even though I was rarely asked about my degree when looking for work.
I was fortunate enough to meet Karol through my wife’s family. He had completed four years of elementary school before the war and was one of the most well-read and inquisitive people I have ever met in my life. We had long, very interesting conversations about the history he had witnessed. He had read more books in his life than many of my colleagues with university degrees.
I was prompted to raise this issue by an article published on Wednesday, November 12, on vigilantfox.com: Why Smart People Fall for the Biggest Lies?
Have you ever encountered people who look smart on paper but when you try to engage about real world issues and data, you can’t get anywhere? What about doctors who seem unable to think outside of the script they seem to be reading from? Some have sharp minds, but their judgement is dull. They recite rules but they can’t recognize truth.
The analysis presented in this article provides a good explanation of the mechanism behind the emergence of television experts. A few letters before their name, a stethoscope hanging around their neck if necessary, and contradictory statements delivered with authentic conviction by (non) existing authorities. Pathetic figures, convinced of their mission, which is based on solid financial foundations.
Intelligence used to be understood as something very multidimensional. It included emotional, physical, intuitive, creative, and spiritual components. Today? Only one thing matters. Intellectual intelligence—the kind that scores well on tests and follows the rules without asking questions. This incredibly narrow focus has created an epidemic of smart fools—people who can solve equations but can’t see the reality around them or question what doesn’t make sense. Another quote from the above-mentioned article.
We are the only species that sprays poison on our food so that other animals won’t eat it—and then we eat it ourselves.
