You don't. Stop trying to push your dogmas on someone else. No one goes deep into philosophy because they're living a satisfactory life. Don't ruin it for him

If they don't seek it on their own they don't deserve it. They can have Marvel movies and sugary food, that's all they get.

You can be smart and still waste your time away on bullshit, very smart people can do very dumb things, contradictions I know but these contradictions are ingrained. The best questions to ask for this is what is "smart", what makes something "smart", and how can someone be smart and at the same time make stupid choices, I suppose you can be dogmatic and say if he makes stupid decisions he is stupid, but when you here about their math abilities, beautiful observation skills, and the subtle hint of the birth of questioning, it's hard to say they are stupid.

Exactly you can read all you want and still be braindead, there is something special when you watch someone question on their own without the help of some old tome.

True, but there are multiple domains of intelligence, no?

>> No.16297207

>>16297185
Of course, but I believe that some are higher then others. Some take immense skill, whilst others not so much, many typical skills I personally hold as intelligent, are skills such as car/any vehicle mechanics, gardening, and music production.
