Indispire and the fallacy of Intellectual topics

Intellectual? Define, please.Is it good grammar? Erudite and thoughtful debate? Some of the posts on the premarital sex thing were quite thoughtful ( like mine for instance )  Why does intellectual always have to do with business, politics and religion? Frankly politics and religion are topics I find crutches for people to propagate their hate. Very little debate happens on these topics and there wil never be any converts due to the any of the posts.

If the Indispire posts are voted on by the publeek and the OP does not like the types of topics, isn't it upto the OP to post his owne ideas and get his people to vote them to the top? Isn't that what everyone does?

Who said politics and literature cannot have tears, soulmates or solitude woven into them .That will need clever writing though .Anyways you can always write what you want to write on your blog.Indispire only gets to choose a common topic upon which interested bloggers can write .So there does not seem to be a conflict to me.

Anyways you can always write what you want to write on your blog.

A short one dedicated to this thread... :)

I 'notices'

That topics

On 'The Indispire'

Are 'emotional & mushy'

Not 'intellectually' pushy

So let the topics 'revolve'

To resolve

This issue.

I guess intellectual things need a bit of research for the facts to write a factually correct blogpost. That's something not everyone is fond of. I guess, people like to choose ideas that give them openness to write on emotions than facts.

And as it has been already pointed out, the topics chosen for a particular week are on the basis of random votes.

Why don't you initiate create intellectual waves by submitting ideas related to business and economy? 

I don't find any business and economy topics in the past few indispire ideas suggestions...

R, you used the word Intellectual :O

TS 

You hated that word n?  :P ReRemember, "Mushy, Mushy" tweet :P

You called? 

TS Yes. I remember. But I didn't say that I'll write on intellectual topics 

sorc no 

Ranjith, the forum creator and the tweeter is the same person, I checked! :P

I guess there will be cases where people promote a topic in their own private group to get votes. Such cases must surely be existing... though what Tanishq says is absolutely correct.

You are free to submit topics that you find worthy... and then keep your fingers crossed. Who knows, people just come in and vote it in.

Hi, for your understanding - the topics are voted and not just chosen by a random individual. People vote for the topic they like, and we certainly can't help if more number of people like the topics related to abstract things. :)
