STUPID? Or in possession of Different Gifts?
Stupid? Or, in possession of different gifts? Lately, I have heard many of the following phrases a lot: ~He is so stupid, he just can’t seem to understand~ ~She is as dumb as a box of rocks~ ~I just can’t work with this person, she has zero intelligence~ When we speak about our fellow humans like this, we are automatically going into a 1-up position.
