Try harder, would you?

You said:


And finally, assuming Freud said, "A fear of weapons is a sign of retarded sexual and emotional maturity." I agree with what Freud has said. E.g. Bowser does seem to fear weapons and Bowser does seem to be emotionally immature.


Oh, so we live in a 2-variable universe:
1) Fear of weapons
2) Emotional immaturity

And since Bowser supposedly has these 2 qualities, then people expressing dislike of guns are therefore emotionally immature.

Furthermore, each of the 2 variables has only 2 states - on or off:
1) One either fears weapons or doesn't fear them. No mention of dislike, mistrust, or other possible attitudes.
2) One is either emotionally mature, or emotionally immature. Nothing in between, no shades or subtlety.

- Yawn.
