Typical response from a typical teenager. RedCream is sometimes smug because he knows that some of his beliefs are shared by people much smarter than him. These people, many of whom have/had doctorates, were able to articulate their beliefs using reason.
What about you? Of course, you've never picked up a book without a school teacher telling you to. You probably don't even know where your beliefs come from. Ever hear of John Stuart Mill? Of course not. Let me throw something at you: you aren't as smart as John Stuart Mill. Sorry, but that's the truth. He could articulate his viewpoints. He could argue a point to a level of truth only slightly inferior to that of the mathematical. You can't do that. So, when someone 'parrots' an argument from Mill or someone similar, that argument is superior to your "this is what I believe and if you don't agree you're a poopyhead".
