There has long been a debate over the intelligence level of lesser
beings with many scientists espousing the idea that such beings are
only capable of mimicry or instinct with no real reasoning ability.
They have maintained that reasoning is the sole province of humanity.
However, anybody with a dog will realize their pet is capable of some
sort of reasoning and intelligence. My dog does a remarkable amount
of reasoning in escaping from the back yard no matter how hard I try
to keep her in. Likewise, my cats really know the sound of the can
opener means something and that if they shove all the books off the
coffee table it will get them attention and pets.
The case of the liberal is less problematic as no amount of experiment
has ever shown any repeatable ability to reason, Yes, there are
anecdotes concerning them but whenever they have been investigated it
has turned out to be simply mimicry of humans or simply luck.
Experiments within "rec.boats" has consistently failed to reveal
anything resembling reasoning and even the mimicry is poor.
Consequently, we must conclude that their development lies somewhere
between a kumquat and a sea cucumber with the sea cucumber probably
the more intelligent.
Dogs make good companions and cats are least cute but the reason for
the existence of liberals is problematic. Not only are they parasitic
on humanity, almost all of them are simply ugly.
Advocates of "Intelligent Design" sometimes maintain that Liberals
were placed here to serve as a source of organ transplants for humans
but as a scientist I cannot address any ideas on the subject of ID but
have to look for an explanation within the natural world. It is my
position that liberals evolved to serve as examples of how NOT to
behave for intelligent humans. Thus they do serve a purpose. A
society without liberals would tend to more easily make the mistakes
that liberals espouse but the existence of liberals easily shows that
such ideas are mostly nonsense causing us to return to reason.
