@Rudy1962 Observant. Not many get this.

Do read
[en.wikipedia.org]
These are Cipolla's five fundamental laws of stupidity:
-
Always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.
-
The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.
-
A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.
-
Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places and under any circumstances to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.
-
A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.
Corollary: a stupid person is more dangerous than a pillager.
@FrayedBear Unfortunately we have a number on this Site. Atheism (if they actually are) does not guarantee intelligence, skepticism or a belief in the scientific method. Woo, sadly, abounds, as does dishonesty.
@Lizard_of_Ahaz When did Heinlein make that perspicacious remark?
@FrayedBear Actually he wrote in as a part of his book "Time Enough For Love" placing it in "The Notebooks of Lazarus Long" The second interlude if I remember correctly. The book was first published in 1973...
