For sure! I’m going to college and some of those people defy belief. BTW, the most radical teachers and students that I’ve found are in the English Dept. After VA Tech shooting, they went around joking about people going “English” instead of “postal.” At least one of those was a professor.

I thought about this this morning on my way to the coffee pot.
Ignorance and stupidity are not the same. 0 is manifestly ignorant. He is clearly not stupid.
For those who do not adhere to a single reality, however, their is no ignorance, only unenlightened opinion.
Facts, for neo intellectuals are malleable. Historical reality is always a matter of interpretation.
Central to all this truth and reality is, of course, the existence of God. If one denies God there is no adherence to metaphysical reality, only political reality.
In the current intellectual climate the Left and the Right - for lack of better terms - are talking past each other. For each, the other is wrong. For the Left, wrong is bad ideology. For the Right, wrong is denial of truth.
The Left is not restricted by universal principles and is therefor able to act without regard for ethical considerations outside its closed ideology.
The Right is restricted by notions of fairness, means, and values that govern personal interest.
The winner of this struggle will be the Right if the universe is based on immutable principle.
The Left will be victorious if they are correct and the universe is merely subjective experience.
Rightists choose to live in a universe of absolute values. Leftists choose to live in a world where their personal desires are their categorical imperative.
Victory can only be won by the Right through the individual salvation of souls. Victory for the Left is simply a matter of adequate political suppression.
Then I got my coffee and it went right out of my head.
