I do hope that this youngster has learned one important lesson.
That is, that all his arrogant roaring and foot stomping, got him precisely nowhere. And that more humility and willingness to listen to answers to his question might have brought him the knowledge he seeks.
I have studied with native American elders, and respect for answers given was utmost, even if they dont seem relevant at the time, as other things were told, they would all fit into place eventually and become coherent whole, though often one needed to go away and think about what was said, and by working it out for yourself the lesson became more ingrained, as against just being told the answers straight off.
