The problem with the world

 

"The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts

while the stupid ones are full of confidence."

 Is this a true statement?

I think the statement is true enough. However, I think it's much more than just that. The problems with our world are multiple and too complex to reduce to such a simple observation as this.

It's an interesting thing to contemplate though. "What is the root cause of the world's problems today?"

Side: True

I'd say this is a true statement, I don't think it can be the world's one sole problem, but I do think it is a problem in our world. This sort of ordeal is kind of my pet peeve XD.

When you get down to the real root of the problems, it all looks pretty unsolvable.

It isn't my world view. I tend to think of everyone as evil, intelligent or stupid. We are born to it, and we will die doing it.

The answer is due not to confidence, but due to the inevitable truth that the dumb populate faster and pass on their genes, unlike those who are smart, who seem not to as much.

As the Genes of the Dumb spread, there are more to repopulate the dumb population until the smart people will eventually be bred out.

That at least sounds more plausible.
