Dealing with Ignoramuses all of my life...

[_Jason Bourne]

So essentially anyone who disagrees with Darrick is an ignoramus.

I see.

As you drive down the highway, ever notice how everyone slower than you is an idiot and everyone faster than you is a maniac?

LOL.

This is a truism I guess.

Derrik,

Your real problem is you are an idiot rather than pretending to be one online here.

[_Inconceivable]

Darrick,

You are broken. Some of us out here are under the delusion that there may be highly qualified individuals that spend their lives specializing in fixing Darricks. I'm getting the impression these people may have halfhazardly fallen into your "ignoramus" bucket. Perhaps you ought to reconsider your paradigm before you do something really stupid.

I will echo what Turkey recommended:

"You've got to find peace, and since it's apparently nowhere to be found in the past, try looking other places."

The first Ignoramus in my life was my father. I am HIGHLY allergic to nicotine. My father was a chain smoker. I would go to bed every night with horrible sinus headaches, and I would fall asleep usually as the birds began to chirp; only to be awoken about an hour later for school. I was always tired in school, very tired, and my nose ran constantly. I used to wear long sleeve shirts in order to wipe my nose on them because they constantly ran. In high school I ditched quite abit because my father would get drunk every night and SCREAM and yell at me and my mother until about 2am, and then I'd go to bed and have horrible sinus headache and fall asleep about dawn. I told my father many time that I was allergic to nicotine. He ACCUSED ME OF LYING because, he said, "I see you eating chocolate bars, and they have nicotine in them!" I actually had to write to Hershey, and they mailed me a letter saying there was no nicotine in any of their products. My father said, "Well of course! They HAVE to say that!" Again, an "Ignoramus" is any man or woman who believes as truth whatever they WANT to believe, and believe as lies whatever they DO NOT WANT to believe; the evidence be damned.

Being an ignorant self-righteous git isn't always hereditary. Sometimes it is. This is one of those times.

After ditching high school quite abit I was taken to see a counsellor who asked me why I wasn't going to school. I told him the TRUTH...about my father's nightly screaming sessions and that I could not get to sleep because of my sinus headaches. He said, "Darrick, lying is NOT going to benefit you here!" I was IN SHOCK! He was another Ignoramus.

You are one of those people who keeps lists of everyone who has ever offended you or hurt your feelings in any way aren't you?

Most Mormons are certainly Ignoramuses! About 90% at least. Same is true for the so-called "Christians". Mormon bishops are some of the worst Ignoramuses I've ever met. Born-again Christians (so-called) are another group of simpletons and Ignoramuses. I've confronted hundreds of them over the decades. Some of the most ignorant people on earth.

Notice the one thing in common about all these ignorami? They all talked to you. I think we can all see the common element here.

The world is divided into two groups:

You an everyone else?

Rational men: hold judgment on any belief until one has seen both sides, and judges truth on the merit of evidence instead of subjective reasons.

Never existed in the history of the world though some have been more rational then others. So a mythical 'superman' you imagine yourself to be.

Ignoramuses: judges things by outward appearances, decides that "Truth" is what one wants to believe and "lies" is whatever one disagrees with. MOST Mormons are certainly in this group. Most religious people are. Most "atheists" are too.

To oppose these mythical supermen (you) we have hordes of morons who have beaten you down at every turn and ruined your life. Wow.....you'd think if you were this rational superbeing you would be able to deal with the ignorant masses. So the rational superbeing is also a loser?

Educated people can still be Ignoramuses. A man educated as a doctor may think he knows "everything" about everything. Educated Ignoramuses are some of the worst Ignoramuses.

Translation: Everyone smarter then me (i.e. almost everyone) is a moron!!!!

To the Ignoramuses in Mormon Discussions: 100% of what I have written on all of my posts in Mormon Discussions is 100% TRUTH.

No, you tried to tell me about myself once. You were wrong. At best you're in the high 90's in percentage points.

If you say otherwise, it is only because YOU are an Ignoramus.

Ever considered joining the Tea Party? You'd be a fantastic successor to Mark Levin.

"You're an idiot sir."

Rational men cannot tolerate Ignoramuses very long. It's too painful to be around them.

Indeed, so get the hell out before you drive me away.

Who cares if you're an ignoramus? He who gets the most babes, wins. Thanks, Darrick!
