Quote:
There's a difference between knowledge and wisdom.
Really now? Which is?
Quote:
Some "intellects" lack common sense, the ability to socialize, an understanding on the difference between what looks good on paper and what will fly in the real world, and some people lack a Christian faith because their intellect tells them there's no God, Jesus, or need for faith.
That doesn't explain your initial claim of the "difference between knowledge and wisdom."
Your weaselly "some people" qualifier doesn't mask your own contempt you have for people who have no reason to either believe or share in your own religious beliefs.
Is it because you feel threatened by those who wind up finding freedom though their own independent thought, understanding and conclusions that they draw all by themselves? I can only guess but you do have your own written track record here that can be examined for that pattern of behavior.
As for the "difference between knowledge and wisdom" let's consult the Good Book of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Thesarus (emphasis added):

Give it up, greybeard. You're not going to win within your little trollish games and your infantile need to make assumptions.
