Idiots!

After careful consideration and approaching the problem using a complicated reductionist approach I have come to the conclusion that all humans are idiots. The theory itself is too sophisticated for this post however let me explain the basic logic behind this using a few syllogisms.

LOGIC 1:
All idiots deny that they are idiots
All humans deny that they are idiots
Therefore all humans are idiots

Now if you have to disprove this theory you have to admit you are an idiot. After using considerable thought and using another piece of reductionist deduction, I have concluded that no human will admit that he is an idiot unless he is an idiot. I have concluded that based on the following logic:

LOGIC 2:
Nobody has anything to gain by admitting that he/she is an idiot
Only an idiot does not realise that there is nothing to gain by admitting that he/she is an idiot
Hence all people who admit that they are idiots are indeed idiots

So it follows that you are an idiot if you admit to being one. Now since the subset of all people admitting that they are idiots is thus proved, to be indeed made up of idiots the conclusion in LOGIC 1 still stands.

Now there is another profound conclusion I have reached. Although it might not seem relevant you will realise the genius of it only after considerable thought which I am sure you will pay because you are an idiot. The logic goes like this :

LOGIC 3
Only an idiot would try to disprove something as enormously useful as LOGIC 1
All theories made up by idiots are flawed
Therefore LOGIC 1 cannot be disproved

Bottomline: We are all idiots

If bottomline is that you are an idiot, then you dont deny that you are an idiot. But if you were an idiot therefore you would deny that you are an idiot. Therefore you are not an idiot.

And why are you looking so hard to be unsuccessful to prove that we are all idiots?

May be this is the profound reason to why there are 2 'I's in idiot.

Chrysanthemum,
Thank you. I do agree. I am not an idiot. I am not even human. I am God. However popular misconceptions about God being an all powerful creature put me in a position where I cannot prove this.

Atheistbishop,
Novel logic...this two "I"s in idiot thing. Aristotle would have been proud of you.
