dmb said to John:
I'm not expert on humility, obviously, but how can you imagine that you are in a better position to judge than they are? That's not just a lack of humility, that's downright delusional.
John replied:
...It's all delusion in the end. The question is whether our delusion is any good or not. ...
dmb says:
Really? That's your answer?
Humility doesn't mean you're ashamed of yourself or that you lack confidence. Humility is not the same as low self esteem. It's just a matter of having a realistic view of one's limits and abilities. It's about knowing yourself, which Socrates famously said was the key to all wisdom. So I ask you again.
How can you imagine that you are in a better position to judge than they are?
