I’m fond of refrigerators and air conditioning and light switches and computers and all sorts of stuff. Never thought of them as dumb. I bet the Mayans would have thought a guy with a flashlight was god
I share your delight in these gadgets and conveniences, but hesitate to use the word “super-smart” in connection with them. The Mayans would be awfully stupid to equate a man with a flashlight with “god,” as would we.
