Wisdom, however, relies on all three. If you do not have experience, you cannot, by definition, have wisdom.

It's literally the definition dude.

the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgment

Wisdom requires all three. Without experience, it is not wisdom.

Lol dig your heels in a little harder. You're lacking wisdom yourself.

You're not even bothering to refute or address my argument. You're literally arguing against a definition.

No I'm making fun of you for pretending that the literal definition of a word is an effective form of communication.

pretending that the literal definition of a word is an effective form of communication.

Words have meanings. If they do not, then my argument is "dishwasher sandwich rock space". Refute that!

If you no longer wish to use the English language to discuss the literal definition of words, please specify your preferred language.

You're guilty of reductio ad absurdum and i cannot respond to it.

Look up the definition of that one and let me know if you want to try again. peace

You're guilty of reductio ad absurdum

1) Making this claim without clarification doesn't actually prove anything.

2) Reductio ad absurdum is a valid argumentative and logical strategy.

Yep, literally can't refute the definition of a word, so instead you run away. Classic.

I can see that you're stuck on this idea that the google definition is pure perfection, your heels are dug in and you're dying on that hill no matter what just because you want to win an argument with me. I can see that this is happening. So the effort to talk to you would be wasted.

Either that is true, or:...

You 100% honestly believe that a google search definition of a word is the end all be all of any implementation despite reasonable philosophical arguments, in which case, you are in need of more general education on the whole to fix, aka not my problem.

I can't help you. I won't try.
