Five Reasons Why Thinkers and Philosophers Struggle In Marriage by tobechi74: 1:22am On Dec 20, 2020
History tells us that great thinkers whose thought changed the world never got married. Jesus of Nazareth whose philosophy gave birth to one of the most populous religions in the world abstained from marriage. Immanuel Kant never married. Isaac Newton remained single. John Stuart married very late . Few who married were involved in divorce cases. Did they take an oath of celibacy? Others got married but divorced along the line and yet another group had over one wife depending on the law of the land . The concept of monogamous marriage did not suit them.

1)
Great thinkers are super introverted. They need time alone to think.He dislikes noise. Thinking involves great concentration on an issue His focus is on the subject on his head and not any lady. After spending time outside, he comes back home to reenergize in silence. Women on the other hand prefer to talk about her days activity. He would rather spend his time alone than listen to the endless tale of a woman. Rationalisation is the defense mechanism that helps him  cope with life stress. She will never be number one in his priorities.

2)question these codes. Great thinkers have their own view of relationship . His idea of a perfect marriage is wierd.e.g non-monogamous marriage. Cohabitation without marriage. This could be illegal in some society. Others perceive marriage as a prison one should be free from.  Many thinkers priotise friendship over marriage.They can see beyond the illusion of happily ever after. They dislike the drama that comes with two strangers with different upbringing living under the same roof. He can see the flaws in each  woman the same way he sees flaws in the world. Scholars perfectionist nature makes him seek the ideal woman to marry. Unfortunately, such woman does not exist. He will not settle for less.

3)(3)Great thinkers do not have a life like the ordinary person.They can be boring to an average lady. They live in their head. They care little for personal appearance. It is common to see him with unshaved beards or torn clothes.He spends time thinking that he forgets about food. His body looks worn out. He spends less time doing and more time thinking. The world pays for your skills not for your thoughts. He thinks out loud while talking.He is easily mistaken for a mad man.Some of them got dismissed for deviating from the norm. Bertrand Russell remained unemployed for supporting gay marriage in 1929..They are  jobless. He has no defined source of livelihood.Which lady will happily settle down with one?

What was Jesus Job since he turned 30 by the way?

(4)Great thinkers possess unique philosophy. His views are in minority. ..Most great thinkers are on a mission to spread her ideology. First he needs to find a mate who thinks  the same way as he does. Since his ideology is mostly his, the odds is less than one in a thousand. Most times, he had to choose from female  disciples. Secondly, she ought to find him attractive enough and thirdly she needs to share in his mission to move from one place to another to share his those . She should understand that she will always fall behind his love for intellectual pursuit. He will gladly divorce her if she becomes an obstacle.

Don't mistake philosophers and intellectuals

You are mostly correct

"They are jobless. He has no defined source of livelihood.Which lady will happily settle down with one?"

You are wrong on this and it contradicts your first. Joblessness can't be an issue to someone who doesn't fancy marriage or to marry at the first place. Secondly, interlectual work consumes time. It needs you to reason logically than emotional which marriage compromises.

About job, you are funny. Intellectuals spends alot of time researching in library, laboratory, solving equations, logic, and are inventors. So, who feeds time?

They are considered as simps by most women wink, but if they become famous they'll be chased by these same women.
Jesus would have had almost any woman he wanted, women loved him, he was famous.

Jesus assisted his father in carpentry workshop until Joseph died. No one knew what his Job was afterwards. At the age of 30, he was hardly in a fixed place. He was wandering about preaching.
Carpentry involves having a fixed workshop.

The Bible didn't tell us what Jesus did to earn money

(5)Neurologists tell us that the  human brain is divided into two parts. One part is emotional and the other part is rational. Philosophers have a highly developed rational mind and poorly developed emotional side. Most women have poorly developed rational side and well developed emotional side. Women are feelers.philosophers find it difficult to understand the feeling creature. He tells her she looks fat and she gets angry. But she asks for his opinion. Most women cannot handle the truth. Men are thinkers. To convince a thinker, she has to use argument.

Where did u get this information from?

Then u said he only assisted
Then u said the Bible didn’t tell u what Jesus did.......seriously I’m not getting you

Jesus's father was a carpenter. It is expected that he would run one or two errands for his dad while young. Joseph died at an early age.( If not Jesus would not hand Mary over to John).
That might have brought an end to his carpentry vocation.


At 30 yrs when Jesus started street preaching with his disciples, what Did he do to earn money? Arms ? Begging? Bible did not tell us.

U making speculations and fallacy...
Joseph was a carpenter doesn’t mean Jesus would have been a carpenter as well...u are the one expecting that, the Bible ddnt say so....
That means u can also so say he even married like Jospeh did??

If u go back to ur bible.. u will notice he was always in the temple, and they will always be looking for him...u think someone that doesn’t like to stay at home will sit down and learn carpentry work....
he practically tuned water to wine, fed 5000 with two five loaves, and u are looking for his work....u expected him to do work to make money...
Jesus was unusual, money was not his problem, he never bothered about what people like us bothered about....he sent his disciples to get money from the mouth of fish when he needed to pay tax... yet u are asking where he got money...

Again...You are very good at unnecessary speculation and fallacy... Jesus had other brothers that the mother gave birth to that could have taken care of her when Jesus left....besides, Jesus ddnt stick around that much to take care of his mum. Someone that denied them in one time they were looking for him...

So it’s not like she was lonely...so don’t assume the reason Jesus handed over the mother to john the beloved was becos Joseph was dead and there was no one to take care of her ....only Jesus knows why he made that move...Mayb he did it to help john seff....maybe John don’t have a mother figure in his life... no one knows the reall reason... the Bible ddnt say...

Let’s stick to what the Bible said
