If you're not from that culture, why would you think it could be easy to understand?

You should read the thread, this has been answered. This too has been answered. Not exactly sure what you mean by this, my best quess is yin-yang, so my answer is yes...

Copy and paste a subject into their minds and get a piece of paper with a fancy golden symbol. Hence extrinsic motivation. What is it about science that angers you so? It's just a way of thinking, a philosophy; and every philosophy has it's bad practitioners, some of whom should be dispised/disliked (not the same as contempt) because they clearly don't understand it's meaning, much like you would a priest that molests children. What you can't do is dismiss the good it clearly does as an excuse to dispise the idea. Indeed, your on top of your mountain of resentment. That's an entirely different question, worthy of it's own topic; so, if you want an answer, start one...

Anger and contempt are ways to describe hate and, while that could be useful in some case's *, it's usually more harmful to you than it is to "them". * I think what you mean is, someone you dislike says you can't achieve your goals and it spurs you on, to prove them wrong; you should be thanking them, not holding them in contempt.

By taking the test many times and "learning" from the results, when this method is applied to life, it increases your wisdom. 😉

Why do they deserve contempt? They're not doing the job as well as you or they're not as educated as you or they don't work as hard as you? Shoudn't they deserve your pitty? Because they're never going to be as successful as you, but maybe they're happier...

I see it as more like a barter, "have a think about what I've said and tell me what you don't understand, next time" if you want to hear more, help me live and I'll tell you tomorrow. It's not like busking on the street (or posting on this forum), most people are happy with their current earworm. I'm thinking more like a market stall with a sign up saying "get your life coaching here", attracting people who want to here my tunes. BTW that "slightly" is a 'real' slap in the face... 🤒 😁

Nope, that's the point... 🙄

Rito...

Indeed, but we've narrowed it down...

OK, so only what you agree with... 😇

Brainteasers count... 🙄

Rude... You like riddles, right? So, what's the point of a sphynx?

Maybe you forget "for whom this bell tolls"; unfortunate...🧐

My arguments still haven't moved you? You seemed to get angry on quite a few occasions, but we're still talking, so pay up you cheap skate; I've made you think about something...

Wish I could afford one. I was thinking, pay me what you think it's worth; then maybe they'd buy me one...

Contempt requires you to assume your knowledge and understanding is better than their's, you have no reason to assume that; even if they're in a wheelchair and dribbling, because you might be talking to Stephen Hawkins, or his twin. Anger is for now not tomorrow, it's a base reaction to something you don't like, on the good end it stops someone from attacking you, physically, on the bad end it gives you an excuse to attack someone you JUST disagree with. Contempt implies arrogance. As demonstrated by @genio Serenity, regularity, absence of vanity,Sincerity, simplicity, veracity, equanimity, Fixity, non-irritability, adaptability, Humility, tenacity, integrity, nobility, magnanimity, charity, generosity, purity. Practise daily these eighteen "ities" You will soon attain immortality. - Socrates Not all eighteen every day, five a day should be plenty... 😉

I was thinking, one at a time; I only need to make enough for today...

Indeed, it's so much easier to explain face to face, and they pay according to the value of the explanation... 🙏

He's dumber than me... 😣 That could work, but I don't have a phone/camera; it has given me an idea though, that needs to be cogitated. So the next question is, how to advertise your wares without paying?

Good to hear.

You know that's not in my wheelhouse. 🙄

Big foot? No, not really; it was Noah that decided:

Well, the plant's use light differently and they have a different idea about the sound a tree makes when it falls in the forest. Evolutions direction is to survive today and think about tomorrow when the sun rises... 😉

Sorry, it was the ffs that threw me.
