I often refer to, "sin makes people stupid," because
sin dulls the mind,
sin blinds the mind,
sin deceives the mind.
Sin is the way of the fool and seeking God is the way to knowledge and wisdom and understanding. (Book of Proverbs addresses so many aspects of this).
There are some highly educated fools in this world. I would not want to take anything away from them. It takes hard word to get book larn'n, which really is important. Sadly, they done be studying the wrong book. But if it is going to be the highest kind of education, it must align with TRUTH, which is the revelation and teaching of God.
Also, people confuse Education with Schooling. We have all known folks who got the schooling, and the paper to prove it, but they are still dumber than a clam when it comes to life.
Schooling and education should bring us closer to God and His will. Remember, the Bible says that in the end times, people would be ever learning, but never coming to the knowledge of the truth.
One more thought before I close this post. There are Christians who presume on God rather than have a knowledge of God. We are suppose to be growing in GRACE and KNOWLEDGE of the Lord.
