    You mean Anglican/church of England types right? Move to Alabama or Rwanda or Serbia or Lebanon for a while and you'll have a different perspective.

    Maybe so. But the Christians I know are wonderful people. Misguided, yes, but good people.

    Fair enough, and the Christians I know are nice too, but as far as the religiously inclined Christians go (in terms of the religious aspects of a person) we have the cream of the crop, the only more secular minded Christians would be Universalist Unitarians or something similar. It's like hanging out with sufis in Bosnia. I just wanted to point that out.

    That would be a good comedy road trip, especially aimed at Islamic markets. 'Dude, we got so high with those sufis in Bosnia'-with all the hijinks to be had on the way there and back, like sneaking past the border police wearing a niqab.

    'Hanging with sufis in Bosnia' would be better than 'Salmon fishing in Yemen'. Who the fck wants to go to Yemen to catch salmon?

    Anyway, off topic now.

    +1

    I don't really look up to anyone per say, I just have this detailed mental image of how I'd like to be and I strive to achieve it, I never stop and think 'OK I'm comfortable with how I think/act/look now'. There is always room for improvement. If I did look up to anyone though, it would be someone who was very strong/resilient emotionally, like Ayaan Hirsi Ali.

    No, I didn't claim that I was a genius.

    I said that I can appreciate genius in many people, but it doesn't always follow that I "Look up to them" as a result.

    that is true .. in fact you should NOT "look up to people who are genius"  you should only appreciate  their creative power or other natural ability  to solve  given problem in an intelligent way. .. but NEVER LOOK UP TO THEM THEM.. and never follow in their foot steps
