Since the level of academic studies and free studies of the people in a society
differ and normally in a cultural pyramid the major part of its volume is
occupied by those that due to daily occupations have not much time to study and
acquire scientific insight about the delicate relations and the delicate social
issues, always the group that due to personal interest, or the privilege of
better material blessings finds greater chances for reading and contemplation
over cultural issues finds itself more elite and more knowledgeable than the
majority in their society and tries to influence the others with their thoughts.
Particularly in the societies where due to cultural limitations the majority of
people are deprived of the possibility of getting fully acquainted with thought
trends, even if there is appropriate time for getting informed and acquainted
with such thought trends for everyone, due to the difference in the extent of
the individuals' interests, and genetic capabilities, the extent of different
people's awareness will differ. Particularly more so in today's world that due
to the complications of the sciences and technologies the entire scientific
activities have become ultra-professional and the era of those philosophers that
used to become masters of all sciences of their times has for a long time come
to an end.
It has been a long time now that the world of thoughts has been needless of
oceans that are no deeper than an inch and the time for such philosophers as
Avicenna and Harabam has come to its end. Therefore, it has been a long time now
that an ordinary individual, no matter how academically learned he might be, is
no longer capable of opining in entire scientific fields professionally.
Meanwhile, it has now been a long time that various societies have come up with
the conclusion that in order to find the solutions to various problems it is
necessary to refer to those experts that in addition to having the theoretical
knowledge have the minimum required experience in a certain field, as well.
As we all know, for instance, merely because someone is a doctor it does not
mean that he can be a competent analyst as well over entire social, cultural,
religious or political developments, and probably the worst medical
prescriptions can be made by best philosophers of the time. Likewise, in the
framework of the social issues, the cause and effect relations in a society are
always too complicated to be prevented merely by presenting analyses, or to
expect that by preventing a single cause, an effect would no longer exist. That
is because in the field of the cultural and social issues normally there are
various causes that influence a phenomenon and as a result each phenomenon is
the fruit of various causes that can even have counter-effects on one another
and many of these causes are either uncontrollable by nature, or managing them
requires a long period of time during which there is also need to multifactor
analyses in order to comprehend and reign them.
It is a pity that in smaller societies some people assume they have become
scientists merely by reading a number of newspapers, sometimes browsing at the
virtual space (of the internet) and buying a number of books and reading their
preludes, particularly if a few of their friends and relatives, too, would due
to their own weak academic insight, or just in a bid to complement them, keep on
confirming them and accept the solutions proposed by them as appropriate for
solving the entire problems. This way, unaware people present overnight
solutions for the most complicated cultural and social issues that in the minds
of their designers are reshaped to become the keys for the entire closed doors,
and their designers are introduced as the axes of proper thinking. Such thoughts
are typically presented with much enthusiasm and so ambitiously that is
typically expected of the teenaged people and their initiators assume that the
others are either due to conservatism or due to their lack of competence in
comprehending the status quo, incapable of presenting them. But as we earlier
mentioned, such spontaneous solutions are often presented keeping in mind just
one of the dozens of existing problems and most often they cost way above the
expected benefits of them. These spontaneous solutions remind one of the ideas
of Don Quixote, which were always confirmed and strengthened by Sancho Panza.
Particularly today that with the expansion of the virtual space everyone can
very easily express their viewpoints and with the relative freedom of expression
emerged in our small society, proposing any kind of criticism dose not cost
anyone very much. Still, we are witnesses to the birth of few champions that
volunteer to fight the wind mills and intend to make moves at the expense of the
society members, but they themselves raise the white flags after facing the
first serious problems. This group of pseudo-intellectuals looks at the cultural
and social activities as pastime activities and free time fillers and never
considers the problems comprehensively in an all encompassing manner. A general
rule has always existed in the human sciences and will always be there for ever
and that is the fact that the spontaneous and crash type resolutions merely
contribute to further complications of the situation and as we see the
pseudo-intellectuals that without proper studies and thorough understanding on
various aspects of the existing problems present apparently brave solutions, in
the long run merely bring forth widespread fear and contribute to the attitude
of seclusion in a society. That is because the scene of the social activities is
the scene for the survival of the strongest and the fittest species, not the
scene for lengthy discussions on best abstract ideals that exist merely in the
minds f their initiators. That is because without sufficient cognition, deep
analysis and full comprehension of the particular social, cultural and
historical status, presenting a solution is like going mountaineering aimed at
conquering the highest peaks of the Everest Mountain without the appropriate
shoes and clothes and prior to proper body building exercises, or having the
experience of climbing the Damavand and Dena mountains in advance. If adopting
spontaneous decisions at the scene of personal and family lives is dangerous and
illogical, making such decisions at the scene of social activities is much more
perilous and hazardous. In order to ensure having a better future any society is
in need of realist thinkers with deep historic insights and capability of proper
analysis of the status quo at lowest costs and presentation of solutions for the
society since the eventual gain of the societies that adopt implementation of
spontaneous solutions that have no historic support there is no predictable
future but defeat and humiliation.
