Illuminati

Can someone give me a definition for metaphysical? I always thought it was somewhat mystical. Doesn't seem at all like something rand would condone.

I'll let my actions show whether I want to use big words to inflate my ego or to summarize conversation to make it concise. I assure you I simply try to estimate what someone's vocabulary level is and use words accordingly, its just... I'm OFTEN shocked that people have a much poorer vocabulary than I thought. Just a gripe, I suppose. Cedar point loses its "pizzaz" after living near it so long. The tourist help that along real quick. Of course now the millenium force/ top thrill dragster dwarf the magnum. I'm fairly certian I can't even ride them because I'm too big (I know I can't ride the top thrill dragster). I have ridden the magnum against my better insticts because of a short line, and it was a blast though.

No. I'm saying that humility can be good or bad, just like many actions. It depends on the intent of the person using it and how they're using it. Arrogance is using one's superior ability to directly contrast anothers' lesser ability. This too can be bad depending on the reason why someone is doing it. The form Ayn Rand cites is the negative use of arrogance. There is also the unintended arrogance that happens simply from being good, which is not bad at all.
