Kind sir, as you progress out of adolescence, you will come to realize that knowledge, wisdom and intelligence are not tantamount.

If I had known being wrong was going to hurt you that much, I wouldn't have said anything. My apologies.

It's ok, kid, I'll recover. Clearly, you were right about that thing that you were talking about that you weren't totally clear on, and I was completely wrong. But I'm certain we'll both get over it.

Reincarnation ideas in general hold that talent and deja vu are a result of retaining memory of a past life. So if someone's an amazing pianist after two lessons then they were a professional pianist in a past life.

I dare you to try and back that up with ANY evidence at all.

"Reincarnation ideas in general hold..." Meaning they generally believe that this is the case. The fact is that it is believed, not the thing itself. Given how you jumped down other throats about sports team names it seems that you need to pay a little more attention to wording.
