This is kind of dumb and we keep doing it over and over.
The original poll was a joke.
Mature : A fully developed state.
Being that "develope" is a concept of change over time. That means that age WILL have a correlation to maturity. This isnt an issue to argue; its a simple fact( although the original poster has the correlation backwards).
Maturity is a mark of age - by definition.
Now maybe this isnt what what the original posted meant, but its definetly what he said. I suspect that the original poster purposefully wrote with the intention that the connotation and denotation of his poll would be different, but similar enough to cause confussion, thus resulting in lively discussion.
Frankly I exspect more of everyone here, than to fall for this trick every time.
