I regard you all as logically/mathematically impaired and somewhat substandard in the validity of your academic persuits ...I believe that anybody majoring in ex. Political science, History, Art, especially psychology etc are inferior to people taking engineering or sciences.
Sometimes I get really angry when I look at a humanities major and I wish I could voice me opinion and occasionally -when I see a psychology student - I want to stomp on them --I'm not making this up -it's a serious question here.
My question is: How do I overcome this prejiduce ?

I think you need a good psychologist! You need some anger management. Anyone with that attitiude should not be allowed to be educated. Because someone made different choices than you does not mean they are logically or mathematically inferior to anyone. Most of those people think engineering majors are socially inept.
There is room in this world for all occupations. We need all types- I bet you are one of those who don't think you need core courses in art, music, history, sociology, etc either.

Well, you're probably right! Many of us are terrible at math...However, there is a much bigger process going on here than "your prejiduce"(BTW you spelled prejudice wrong). It's a general disrespect and "less than" feeling that you have for yourself which then is projected out into the world. It must take up so much of your energy to walk around with these feelings and I empathize with you on a very deep and human level. My hope is that you get the help you so desperately need because no one should go through life with such anger and hatred toward oneself or others. You deserve better.

Well, well! Do I detect some anger and perhaps a little superiority complex? You really need to get over it! Remember my friend, "Your character is defined by how you live your life". You also need to understand that you are unique and so is everyone else. We are here on earth for a very short span called "Life". So, let's get crackin' and do the best we can and treat all others as we would like to be treated. Actions speak louder than words!!!!

I'm fine with your prejudice.
Although, your academic achievements and goals are circumspect given your written language. Most people who have submitted anything in writing for academic credit would appreciate this point.
Sure, I believe you. *winks* You're not making this up.

Everyone has something to give. Those in the arts and sciences are good at things you may not be

Start hanging out with the people you think are inferior to you. Don't be too critical. You're above no one.

Its their preference. Everyone is made of the same dirt some just have more fertilizer added than others.
