    I think you may be taking the word unintelligent as an insult, which it of course can be used as one but in this context I’m not using it as an insult.

    They mentioned that science minded people will confidently say matter comes before conciousness as proof that logical people are confident in unproveable things as well. That statement was false to begin with because it was based on that science minded person being logical.

    Being confident in something unproven is not the logical or intelligent thing to do so I was explaining why that example doesn’t work as the example they gave was not of a logical intelligent thinker that I was asking about in my title.

      Lol. That’s… Quite a stretch. I do not consider this context as being insulting. I said I’m doing this between chores, and I need to think about it. Nothing more, nothing less.

        I’m clarifying why I said unintelligent because I think this is your second time pointing out the word in separate comments so it comes off as you having an issue with the word

        How are your chores going?

          I’m using the terminology you chose. Rough, I need to get back in shape! Moving furniture to clean under and behind is so. much. fun! But later I get to have a hot soak and my house is smelling nice. Not least of all because I’m cooking, too.

            Nothing like 4 sets of couch raises and 2 sets of window wiping to get the blood pumping. Big fan of food, what you making?
