I’m not sure if you there are anyone out there who agrees with me on this, but regardless if you agree or disagree, I’m open to others opinions. I personally do not believe that there is really anyone whose is actually stupid in this world. I believe all people; each and every individual person is capable of acquiring new knowledge. Furthermore, I believe that every individual is capable of making choices for themselves. For these reasons being, it is reasonable to suggest that every person has its very own abilities to make decisions for one and think for itself. In the film of Nicholas of Cusa which I had provided the link in this blog, it stated, “Therefore, if the foregoing points are true, then since the desire in us is not in vain, assuredly we desire to know what we do not know.” In order words; people chooses to be naïve and live in a their la-la land, people chooses to lie to themselves, blindfolding themselves and pretending of not knowing any better of their own actions in order to be forgiven easier by other people, they will chose to look lazy and unproductive because they do not favor the idea of being mentally or physically challenged. Therefore, I conclude that there is no such human being that is stupid.
These individuals who appears to be; lazy, mentally or physically challenged, naïve, ignorant (egotistical is a whole new subject), simple minded, or with low self esteems are the people who deceived others as being “that stupid person.” In actuality, these “supposedly stupid individuals” are conscious of their own deceptions and are aware of their own pathetic behaviors. In the end, I can only suggest by quoting after myself, “Whatever floats their boat.” In other words, as long as each individual person seems to be happy and has no complaints, then it is a win win situation.
