   I saw that report, there was something in one of the newspapers, and yes, I decided it wasn’t worth ranting about on my blog either, so I decided to ignore it.

   However, someone made the point that with intelligence comes pride and the more proud a person is the harder it is for them to accept the concept of God. And if they’re going to look at intelligence, maybe they need to look at wealth as well. After all it’s harder for a rich man to get into the kingdom of God, etc, etc. And look at it this way, intelligent people may be richer as well.

   Very true, A-M.

   1 Corinthians 1:18-19 also say:

   For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written:
   “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise;
   the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.”

   In other words, we can’t find God by “intelligence” – which I think many ‘intelligent’ people find quite hard.
