So, do you agree or not? Because I'm the opposite - I think I'm less moral and more intelligent that most people. Do you think that Enneagram and MBTI might play a role in the answer?The Muhammad Ali Effect is a term used in psychology that was named after him when he stated, "I only said I was the greatest, not the smartest" in his autobiography The Greatest: My Own Story. According to this effect, when people are asked to rate their intelligence and moral behavior in comparison to others, people will rate themselves as more moral, but not more intelligent than others.
I am not very moralist... I don't give a damn to moral and to respecting others. In place of that I prefer to have an hedonistic behavior towards others... Let me explain. I don't go for *I respect everyone... I am nice* NOP In fact, no one respects me and if you would let them, people were now fucking you in all possible ways. Besides, I find moralistic fundamentals very hypocritical.So, do you agree or not? Because I'm the opposite - I think I'm less moral and more intelligent that most people.

...are you perhaps suggesting that have killed a random human being on the street... or are planning to do so??I put "not more moral or more intelligent than others".
There are lots of people on here that are a lot smarter than me in my supposed strong suits. Then there is always the "different intelligence" thought avenues one could go down.
Then there is morality. I have a higher morality in some areas whilst in others I do not. For instance, I find it incredibly cruel to hurt animals yet I could sleep just fine killing a random human being on the street, but I don't find it logical.
Haha, no. None to worry there. I'm just saying it wouldn't bother me but I have no reason to do so....are you perhaps suggesting that have killed a random human being on the street... or are planning to do so??
From googling "Define: Pacficist"^^^L
lol, I'm a little confused... I thought being a pacifist meant avoiding violence, and being opposed to it completely...
I'm mostly just opposed to violence inside of myself, I try to stay pretty calm.Definition for pacifist:
Web definitions:
someone opposed to violence as a means of settling disputes
I tried killing a few people once, failed, kind of glad I failed too, I would have gone to jail... other than that though it didn't bother me, but then again, they deserved to die.Though -with that said- you may not have a problem in the act of killing someone (due to a fight or whatever else) based on what your saying, but who is to say you'd be fine 'sleeping at night'?
I suppose I should clarify a little, I don't mean innocent people that are good natured, I would likely feel bad if I killed someone like that. I mean the rotten people, the people that I'm thining of are back from high school, I would imagine it's the same thing as squashing a bug.It is a pretty intense thing, to take a life, and if you haven't done so already I find it sort of unjustified to say how you'd feel afterwards.
My feelings are rather selfish, so you would be justified in saying they are not justified.I'm not trying to say your feelings are unjustified though, because they most definitely are justified.
Don't worry about it, I try to stay pretty chill nowadays:happy: and I doubt you really could offend me over the internet, I can just ignore your comment and scroll to the next one if you bother me.I was just interested by your comment and felt compelled to respond, I hope I don't offend you... not my intention at all. :]
