These are facts. What you're spouting is nonsense, but you always do that.
Ah your a psychiatrist. I've been told I'm crazy and need help.
How are you able to suggest that Nash was schiz, and not just such a high level thinker that he was connected to a higher power or something transcendental.
He described himself like Mohamed.
What if I am not talking 'supernatural' spiritual mumbo, but more along the lines of synesthesia.
We take an intelligent man, label him crazy (back then I'm sure that was the label), basically attack his ability to think.
Then give him a nobel prize and suggest we can recognize how smart he is.
And use his work for war?
Is intelligence an atom bomb and why am I crazy for asking this?
These men, Einstein, Nash, Bohm, did they give out all their secrets when it comes to world destruction, or do you think the hid some for fear of what the knowledge could do? Think about this.
Was nash really a code breaker? I would like to know what parts of his life we feel are real and which aren't?
Also in your pro opinion, was nash paranoid?
He believes commies and non commies were working together in a fake war....does this sound crazy to you?
He was chased all around Europe and brought back to America by ship (he says in chains and I believe him), but we think his other account of being watched and followed are Schiz?
