this is kind of interesting:
intellect breeds self consciousness and not the other way around
as you've noted: thats not to say that knowledge requires intellect

i'd like to hear responses from everyone with something to offer on:

symbols & structured language in relation to intellect

observation: intellect tends to retard all other growth until fully
developed at which time it promptly phases itself out

observation: intellect is notoriously poor at assiting interaction,
as every time you think, you're living in the past

observation: often intellect impedes learning with past experience

what role does pure structure play in all this?
any arguments that prove fundamental/necessary problems to any mode of
thought?
pros AND cons?
alternatives and their pros and cons?
lets get this list going with something interesting.
