Thanks for your reply.

I think having a thirst for something has a lot to do with it. I think that is something that is innate. It is a talent that most people do not have.

People have said there is nothing more perfect than math. That is it almost divine. But where is the salvation in it?

It has no heart, no pulse, only manipulation of what already exists.

Close to every genius has been a mathmatican. I can understand how one would feel superior to others that do not have this skill.

Remember however, even Einstein believed that virtue, ethics, and value topple all of knowledge.

My friend, you are very intelligent. However, don't mistake knowledge for wisdom.

What good is your life if you are not happy? You only live once. We are not computers that need nothing but electricity.

If you could pick to have 100 million dollars, understand how the world works, but never be able to be touched by another human again would you take it?

Or, the other option is to not have the 100 million dollars, not understand the complexities of math, but allow human touch.

My only other arguement would be(and again I do think you are very intelligent) is that what you manipulate is what is already out there to find. You are not alone in being able to find the answers to a complex problem. But to touch other with your soul is unique.

Which is more Godly to me? To me it is touch for that is individual.

Anyway, you are using your talent to help people, so thank you.


ps.(I may have to take the question I posted down earlier. I am very greatful to Galactus for responding. THANK YOU. But if I leave it up and my teacher finds it, I may get in trouble)
