Scientific Morality! It's about time!

[Magnum]

I notice you have a thing against higher education, as evidenced by your quote from Bertrand Russell.

I actually want to address the signature. You took it out of context, see.

The important thing to remember is that Russell didn't mean this as a general-purpose aphorism.

This comes from Russell's account of historical developments in philosophy, the part where he's describing the theories of Claude Adrien Helvétius (1715-1771).

Helvétius held that differences in intelligence - between genius and stupidity - were entirely down to differences in education (as opposed to differences in inborn capacity). Hence, if someone is stupid, in Helvetius' view, a poor education has made them that way.
