Things arent always what they seem, & sometimes they are. :)

Ceci N'cest pas une pipe was a painting by the great Belgian Rene Magritte . this is to say that sometimes things dont appear as they are. they might not be so. a person can look well adjusted for most of the time and yet sometimes commit slight peccadilloes. they are merely faux pas but sometimes what happens is that they are taken in the wrong sense and thus there are problems.
well , i wanted to address this issue as the time had come , when people actually ask you or doubt you sometimes for reasons unbeknownst to you and i felt a need to do this. this is not for myself but for a friend. dont put a lot of thought into it.

Think about how much smarter you are than a mentally retarded person and sorry to use this word but thats the word used by the US Government.

An average person’s IQ is about 100, and that of a retarded person is around 65. For a measly 35 point difference, one can see the difference in thinking and thought process.
Well, the deficit between a guy with an iq of 170 and the average person is nearly 200% greater! Heck, the difference between him and a genius is as great as the difference between a genius and a retarded person!
For a ten point difference it is considered to be a standard variation ie it is like the difference between 6 sigma and 5 sigma. and likewise . when you look at it with 10 billion specimens , the difference stands out easily.

Aldous Huxley once said,
Perhaps men of genius are the only true men. In all the history of the race there have been only a few thousand real men. And the rest of us--what are we? Teachable animals. Without the help of the real man, we should have found out almost nothing at all. Almost all the ideas with which we are familiar could never have occurred to minds like ours. Plant the seeds there and they will grow; but our minds could never spontaneously have generated them.



And there have been people with IQ's much higher than that too. I do not say that the IQ is really important. well, it isnt, but in general cases , it has been observed to form an important part of human understanding per se. and the thought processes of these individuals are different and thus there behaviour may not seem rational or even as held by common belief.

sometimes people have to understand that. compassion is an important human trait that most have forgotten . hopefully a day shall come when even that has been restored.
I , myself had problems as a kid and had to do a lot to fit in with society and conform to societal standards . but that shouldnt be the case. wh should one expect that. do they expect retards to do anything special ? for this guy, an average human is thrice as much a retard than a retard is for you.

something to think about , N'Cest il pas ?
