RE: Intellectuals are the dumbest people in society (no, really)

in #life5 years ago

I, wholeheartedly, agree with this: An intellect that isn't guided by the moral virtues of the heart is one of the most destructive forces in the universe.

There's a terrific book on this subject, The Reckless Mind: Intellectuals in Politics that might interest you. Cheers, Yahia

Thanks for the recommendation; I'll check it out, man.

Hope you enjoy it 🙏🏼

Another one that I need to check out in this same vein (at least from the sounds of it) is Political Ponerology by Andrew Lobaczewski, even though it's rumoured to be a 'difficult' read I would love to get my hands on a copy.

It sounds dark... Then, again, we are talking about the problem of evil, here, and what human beings are capable of when without a moral compass.
