Being intellectually humble is a good thing. If you are humble, people will respect and recognize you for it! Of course, being intellectually humble does not mean you act as if your knowledge is not important - which would not be helpful - but simply means that you don't parade around your intelligence as something that makes you better than others. SO BE HUMBLE YOU! 8-)

Does meekness and humility mean the same thing?

No, they do not. To be "meek" is to be extraordinarily patient. Those who are meek understand that "good things come to those who wait" and that it is in the nature of things that the good and worthy outcome often takes far longer to come about/happen than less worthy outcomes. To be humble, on the other hand, is to be modest; to not be proud or arrogant, or to think that one is better than, or superior, to others. It is usually only those who are humble who have the strength of character to also be meek -- but they are not the same state of being.


Kant mainitains that the only thing that is an unqualified good is?

Kant's Good Will: A will that is guided solely by reason. Being that Kant believes that only reason, and not emotions or feelings guide moral ethics, then Love, Feelings, Emotions would be an unqualified good, because it is not part of reason. A good will is qualified because this is the action of being moral. God is qualified whether God creates the good or not. Justice is qualified because it is intentionally good. A clear conscience is good because it is doing good.


Is being optimistic and open minded the same thing?

Do you think according to you being humble is good or bad?

According to me, humility like all things is best in moderation. Humility is a good thing if it's not excessive; too much humility is false behavior due to our natural egos. Too little humility can lead to egotism, also best in moderation. So, according to me too humble is bad; not humble enough is bad; being moderately humble is good.
