What a surprise: The Smarter you are, the more likely you are to commit SUICIDE

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

I think for the most part intelligent people simply view the world differently and think differently than most people. The more you know, the more you have to ponder. Thinking-patterns are different for majority of people compared to truly intelligent people. Intelligent people are able to reason and think logically at a rate that I'm beginning to suspect isn't possible in majority of people. They see through the facade of what the world is, and see it behind all of the smoke and mirrors. Humans have set-up every social system on earth, and therefore all of humanity's problems can be solved by man; people that actually take steps to change the old and establish something new. Intelligent people recognize that, and it is kind of depressing knowing that were everyone on earth intelligent, sane, and not deluded in any way (religion), majority, if not all, of humanity's most crucial problems would be solved rather quickly. I guess some decide to reach as many people as possible with the idea of hopefully planting some type of seed of reason and logic, while some succumb to their depression in the end. I can't say that it's not an understandable circumstance given the powerlessness one can feel when fighting against the majority, but I just hope I never reach that point personally.

great post

It is kind of sad when you're a progressive intelligent person and you see the world being so archaic, knowing that even by the time you die, things will largely remain the same. Change is just so slow because of all the ignorant a$$holes who can't see the light.

And then there are people who have intelligence, but no drive to do anything.

Their laziness turns them into contrarians because their intellect has failed to make them successful on its own merits, so they think people who are actually passionate about something and take steps to make shyt happen are naive or pseudo-smart.

These are the people who end up shytting on atheists for its own sake, because their own failure to effect positive change makes people who still feel a certain way about things seem trite.

We call these people jaded a$$holes and move right along, as the rest of the world leaves them behind.

You hit it on the nail. Except all of the intelligent people don't go into depression, some use the majority to get money, and a build a world that they can do what THEY want. The thing is you become the bad guy to a lot of people because you don't go along with a lot of the things that the majority do.

Not saying that's good or bad, but I can understand why some people just live life, get money, and do them. They realize they can't change the world, at least to the point that they would like it to be due to people just being who they are. Thank god for psychoactive plants, because alcohol doesn't cut it for someone who wants to think while still being able to relax in this crazy world.
