I don't think that humans are stupid, Only when confronted in a situation were religion, belief, or science cannot help them. What being wouln't be stupid during that instance. The fact that humans fight war is becuase there is not enough space on the planet for everybody's wants. Any being is cappable of stupidity because they are not omnicient or god. Do I have a firm belief in human ignorance, yes, of coarse, becuase of the fact that the military won' let us in on the alien situation. Ignorance is bliss but I prefer to be miserable. The fact that we don't know what is going on is that main reason why we are not advancing as quick as we used to. The economies as well as sanity has to be maintained.

If you would shut the fark up, and stop starting arguments, then voila. The posts will not be erased. All the posts that have been erased, have involved you. That's not by accident.

Stupidity is pretty irrelavent in this case. I think one can draw the conclusion that stupididty and ignorance are completely different aspects of confusion. When one is confuse, they are more than likly not STUPID per se, just ignorant to what is around them.
However you could argue the stupider you are, the more you get confused. Many wars are started on religeous ground because people (in general) are very DEDICATED to what they believe in and believe it is right, so they fight to defend what they believe.
I think I'll take a que from wizards first rule: Humans are idiots, they will always believe what they WANT to believe.

Are humans idiots for believing in what they want to believe?

Yes, but no. Simply for the reason of their ignorance, and their innability to understand other mindsets. We have a little thing called tolerance, which we didn't have before.

Believing in what is illogical and rediculous simply because you do not want it to be the truth is idiotic.

Its not illogical or rediculuos in their eyes. And who are we to say what is or is not. It is just belief. Something that helps men and woman through their troubles. If we say that their way is rediculuos, then we are just as ignorant as them in a way. If they choose to fight a holy war. Then to them, there is a damn good reason.

They're still retarded for fighting over religion. Humans always seek to be retarded. I work at a grocery store, I've seen the people that believe in the Weekly World News.

It is not retarded to fight over religion. It is natural and right.

It's natural, and right, I agree. It's still retarded, proving how humans are retarded. Humans need to be retarded to be normal basically. I never said that wasn't normla. I said it was retarded.
