Sciencism

Some people may think i'm crazy or stupid. But consider this:

When do we describe someone's action as stupid? When we see them doing or saying something that we would consider illogical or irrational, and when we think they should act in a different way (a way that we would consider logical or reasonable). But consider this.

• A person who has a lower intelligence than you will act in ways that you would consider illogical or unreasonable.
• A person who has a higher intelligence than you will ALSO act in ways that you would consider illogical or unreasonable.

The only way to tell the difference between a person who has a higher intelligence than you and a person who has a lower intelligence than you (in the absense of an IQ test) is to look at the "results" they achieve - after the fact.

In his younger years, few people would have known that Albert Einstein had such great potential. It would not be a very great reach to say that the average person would have considered his ideas stupid. But now we know that Einstein was one of the most intelligent people who ever existed. This is because we can look at his "results" and see that they were superior.

Sure, my ideas may sound crazy and stupid to you, but it's really too early to tell isn't it?
