		An intellectual is a person who uses his or her intellect to study, reflect, or speculate on a variety of different ideas.
		Some intellectuals have been vehemently anti-academic; at times universities and their faculties have been synonymous with intellectualism, but in other periods and some places the centre of gravity of intellectual life has been elsewhere.
		The label of intellectualism is traditionally more consistently applied to to those who study fields related to the arts and humanities than it is to those who study fields related to the natural sciences, applied sciences, mathematics or engineering

	Cleary University Policy on Cheating and Plagiarism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Intellectual honesty on the part of all students is basic to the individual growth and development through college coursework.

	The AMA, Firearms, and Intellectual Dishonesty (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Intellectually honest writers would prefer comment from those with opposite viewpoints, the better to catch errors and be challenged to present the evidence fairly.
		To any intellectually honest observer, it is obvious that there are households for which firearm ownership presents more risks than benefits-for example, a family in a low-crime neighborhood with a consistently rapid police response, with one or more family members with major depression and recent serious suicide attempts.
		On the other hand, for a family with no children or adolescents, no history of depression, violence, or suicide attempts, and adults trained and experienced in the use of their firearms, living in a high-crime area, it is highly probable that the benefits of gun ownership will outweigh the risks.

		Therein lies the fundamental intellectual dishonesty of the group's position.
		They are not willing to have windmills on the ridges visible from their homes, but they seem a little concerned about where the energy to supply the needs of the country is to come from.
		The problem of supplying adequate electrical energy in the places it is needed is too important and too complicated to be dealt with by fraud or to suffer obfuscation with bogus commons arguments.

	AnalPhilosopher Intellectual Dishonesty
		An intellectual who sought something other than truth would be an intellectual in name only, just as a statesman, legislator, or jurist who sought something other than justice would be a statesman, legislator, or jurist in name only.
		Intellectuals would rather not persuade at all than persuade by disreputable means.
		Therefore, whether he wants to conform to the canons of intellectual honesty or not, he is bound by them and properly criticizable when he violates them.

	More intellectual dishonesty on guns - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
		"Intellectual dishonesty" is a phrase I tend to use a lot in writing about the liberal left.
		But by far the absolute worst commentary, though an exemplary example of the intellectual dishonesty that I spoke of at the outset, came in, yes, you guessed it, the Toledo, Ohio, Pink-Gazette ("Pink," I repeat yet again to offer context, because it once chided Sen. Jesse Helms for saying "no" to communism).
		And never mind, as UCLA constitutional law professor Eugene Volokh reminds, that 44 of 50 state constitutions have their own explicit guarantees of the right of the individual to bear arms, Pennsylvania included.

		Peter, the master of semantic acrobatics and intellectual trickery, tells his assembled critical souls that Daniel, probably a card-carrying member of the Anthro-Cult with clandestine connections among the sinister wizards in the Goetheanum basement, is intellectually dishonest!
		Farell would post what he did regarding his thoughts on 'intellectual dishonesty and simple dishonesty, followed up by Waldens, maybe there is a third way and there is no dishonesty just a different understanding.

	Róbinson Rojas: International capital and intellectual dishonesty.- The Róbinson Rojas Archive.- RRojas Databank (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL AND INTELLECTUAL DISHONESTY (Róbinson Rojas)(1999) The basic rationale of what loosely is quoted or misquoted as "export- led growth" has its foundation on the ideological position that capitalist market always clears, and therefore delivers goods and services as needed by those members of society who can buy them.
		The old triple alliance between the state, domestic monopolic capital and foreign capital was changed to a double alliance (domestic monopolic capital and foreign capital) with a political warden (the state) making sure that the domestic market was firmly in the hands of the double alliance.
		Even more, the intellectual dishonesty of the scholars subcontracted by the World Bank reaches a peak when they give only technical reasons for the rate of inflation and the lack of foreign reserves in the Allende's last year of government.

		Only one conclusion seems possible: This is an exquisitely brazen example of intellectual flip-floppery that has nothing to do with law or the Constitution, or American history, and everything to do with conservative politics.
		Intellectual dishonesty is pure poison to the enterprise of the law.
		Yet countless examples show intellectual dishonesty has now become a routine, expected part of American discourse.

	Rantings of a Civil War Historian » Blog Archive » Intellectual dishonesty
		Plagiarism is intellectually dishonest, and when it’s used as a means of selling books–making money at the expense of the ones who REALLY did the work–then it’s theft and a fraud on the consuming public.
		There are few things that bother me more than having my intellectual property–the fruits of my years of labor–stolen, but it’s happened before, and it will, undoubtedly, happen again.
		I would suppose all the intellectual work would lie in substantiating the claim, of which y’all have indicated that no particular effort has been expended by either Walker or Carhart.

		In this respect, they are being willfully intellectually dishonest and cannot be considered credible sources for scientific discovery.
		Creation Science is not supposed to be "intellectually honest" because it is not based on fallible human intellect.

	The Dubya Report - "Intellectual Dishonesty"
		Yet viewed either from the perspective of the cost of the tax cut itself or assumptions about the surplus in the current economic context, the tax cut is not what it appears to be.
		In the words of Gerard Baker of the Financial Times "it is the intellectual dishonesty of this approach that is most distressing."
		The "intellectual dishonesty" Gerard Baker spoke of extends to claims that that tax cut will benefit the economy.

	AnalPhilosopher A Case of Intellectual Dishonesty
		The other day, a reader asked me to expound on, or clarify, the concept of intellectual dishonesty.

		By the way, another British philosopher, David Archard, who contributed a chapter to my anthology, exhibited the same intellectual dishonesty a few months later.

		The amusing portion of it for me was that Bob Barr, an equally conservative blowhard, was apoplectic at this assertion.
		And herein we find the lesson: it is possible to maintain some level of intellectual honesty in all of this on both sides.
		Certainly, some spying within the United States on citizens is expected, needed even, in a time of war.

		that dissects and debunks several intellectually dishonest claims about the war in Iraq.
		Actually learning about the way intelligence is gathered and used, the geography and culture of Iraq, and the geopolitics of the Middle East is simply too much for those who can’t understand a political position that doesn’t fit on a T-Shirt or bumper sticker.
		Sadly, the amount of intelligent discourse on Iraq is exceedingly low, and many have chose to believe facile lies rather than educate themselves on the reality of our world.

	Retort's Response: Intellectual Dishonesty : Indybay (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		We have indeed an a priori acceptance of the truth of the official account of the 9/11 events, the Spectacle’s biggest show ever, and an a priori dismissal of any evidence critical of this official version, proof by assertion.
		This alone amounts to a massive case of intellectual dishonesty.
		The authors make the very elementary and basic error of identifying Marx’s concept of value with price, which leads to a confusion of market phenomena with the underlying processes of capital of which market relations are but a representation, and an increasingly inaccurate one at that.

	Ancient Greek Skepticism [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		This may be either because Pyrrho (or Timon) was disingenuous about what he was up to intellectually, or more charitably because he followed appearances (9.106) without ever committing himself to the truth or falsity of what appeared.
		But by virtue of his intellectual integrity, he is simply not able to arrive at a conclusion and so he finds himself without any definite view.
		Arriving at definite views is not merely a matter of intellectual dishonesty, Sextus thinks; more importantly, it is the main source of all psychological disturbance.

		There’s a difference between acknowledging the too often difficult experience of being fat and the intellectual dishonesty inherent in trying to be fat political and still trying to lose weight.

		So, I personally wouldn’t call it “intellectual dishonesty.” But I get it.

		Undergraduate Psychology students were asked to write summaries of short texts "in their own words." Several who used some of the words of the original were hauled on the carpet by the Psychology department, not for failing to follow instructions but for intellectual dishonesty.
		No efforts by other members of the research team could convince the Psychology people (a) that this was not plagiarism, or (b) that using some words from the original is a good way to write a summary.
