I could give you a huge list of dumb things that have been said or written by some of the world’s brightest folks. What gives? Even I myself (an intelligent male in his own right) tend to say or think dumb things. Think about the dumb and untenable things said by Kant, Hume, Stephen Hawkins, and Arthur Schopenhauer. Some of their thoughts strike a person of moderate intelligence as “dumb” with only a few moments of reflection.
Hume and Kant made some “dumb” statements about non-Caucasian races. Even by the standards of their day, some of their comments regarding anthrpology seem utterly clueless. As for Schopenhauer, his work “Of Women” is full of ridiculous assertions which one could attribute to his cultural context. However, it would not have been that hard for him to find examples of females in both his time and history that falsified many of his ill-founded assertions.
Sophist, I disagree with your assertion. The dumb things that the aforementioned philosophers said have nothing to do with the person hearing them. Intelligent modern-day philosophers of unquestionable intelligence have confirmed that Hume, Kant and Schopenhauer were mistaken in many of their works and that they made many nonsensical assertions. Stephen Hawkins made wild speculative arguments about black holes which he had to retract after he found serious blunders in his work. Why didn’t he catch the mistakes earlier?
By “dumb” I am using the common definition for the word, “conspicuously unintelligent or stupid.” Blame “dumb” comments on cultural context, if you will, but I don’t think this approach explains much of what is truly unintelligent sounding in the thinkers I have mentioned aforetime. At times, folk wisdom or the science of the day had already provided evidence that falsified the statements of Kant, Hume, et al. There is something else at work when smart people make unintelligent or stupid statements.
I would also classify my observation as a posteriori.
I would not say that Kant, Hegel or Heidegger (another smart guy who said dumb and convoluted things) are not great thinkers. That doesn’t mean they are immune from saying dumb things. And to give you another example of smart people saying dumb things, consider what Hobbes writes about humans in the state of nature. He maintains that humans are inherently selfish and prone to violence. There are philosophers and psychologists who adhere to this belief today. But Hobbes begs the question when it comes to our nature. Additionally, his position on man in the state of nature is untenable as it stands. How does one go about proving that humans are intrinsically selfish or that all of our actions are motivated by selfishness? Psychology and experience provides damning evidence concerning the Hobbesian theory of human nature. This philosopher failed to exercise necessary rigor in his development of social contract theory.

Básicamente, PETA me convenció para ir vegetariano porque de todos sus info sobre la industria de la carne. Yo no creo en todo lo que lo hacen No soy miembro ni nada. Pero sé que algunas personas totalmente apoyo PETA por ahí y algunos de odio. Entonces, ¿qué piensa usted de ellos? Y por favor, no estúpidas respuestas y no te atreves decirme a volver a comer carne. Una vez que un vegetariano, siempre. Pero yo agradecería mucho respuestas detalladas sobre su opinión de PETA! Gracias!

I’ve decided to give up being a vegetarian. After 16 years of being a vegetarian, almost four fifths of my life I know it will be hard but I’m going to do it gradualy. I’ve come to realise that vegetarians are obnixous and the whole “vegetarism” thing is a waste of time. Society isn’t made for vegetarians and most vegetarians are too lazy to do anything about that which begs the question why would you want to live with a self inflicted “disablity” the only answer being insanity.

Is there any sort of anti-peta I can join? One that will buy fur coats for poor kids and homeless people? One that will insure kids get beef and ham burgers in school? One which will show the world the vegetarian disablity and stop the morons from ruining more peoples life with their warped propaganda?
Um, yeah I have been vegetarian since I was 4, I’ve stated that numerous times in my answers prior to this.

Thank you Chris I’ll check out those links.
