Ignorance in Intellect.

Most often people think how inferior my course is… and I just laughed at them. And so as to the others who think philosophy, history, arts and music are courses for the less intellectuals.
I have nothing against with those who have math and science related courses, but if those people kept on insisting how unnecessary literature is, I could lambaste them directly and in front of their faces.
First and foremost, everyone’s interest should be respected. If you are good in math or science, that does not make you more superior than those who love arts. Math and science have elements of arts. Arts has elements of math and science, poetry for example. And it does not mean that if you are artistic, you are automatically a dumb ass in math and sciences. Hahaha. Oh, the stereotypes.
I feel good even though I suck in writing to be interested in the literary arts and criticism. At least, I have a mind of my own and never will i let myself be like a commodity in this country where economic crisis is always present.
Maybe literature is not practical, no sure money from it, right? We can live without it. But if everything is about math and sciences without a single tinge of humanities, can people feel that they are not just robots or machines? Can they feel they are human too and not just a by-product of their so-called intelligence?
There should always be a system. but unfortunately, there are always people who believe that they are superior and should rule so they try to eliminate the ones they think are inferior. They are ruining the system that is supposedly perpetuating harmony and order.
