Whether intuition is thinking or not is a matter of semantics. It is a cognitive process and it looks like thinking to me. It isn't logic, but thinking isn't limited to logical trains of thought.

Wisdom is more to do with intuition - lots of experiences and thinking adding up to a general perspective.

Anyway, I think a book burning is a jolly good idea. We haven't had a good book burning for nearly 100 years. All sorts of books could be piled on to see who reacts to what and who froths at the mouth the most.

A book is the worst kind of "thinking"; just a big long chain of symbols represented to some extent the linear logical process of somebody who might or might not have got it down more or less right. Same as any writing.
