No disrespect to anyone. I'm just curious about what your experience has been because I honestly had never researched it. I never questioned it. I THOUGHT smart came in all sizes ages shapes political and religious or non-religious beliefs equally. If true it won't change me at all except that hopefully I'll be a little smarter about not being very smart if that makes any sense. What do you think and why? Politeness and respect discussing this issue would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
