Others use it as a measuring stick, to demonstrate to all who will listen their intellectual superiority. But even unintentionally, knowledge can intimidate and drive apart. Like it did to me watching the College Bowl. After all, some people have a better aptitude for scholastics than others. Some do better in school than others and manipulate information with greater ease.
Some people are simply smarter than others.
But not necessarily wiser. Knowledge gathered and stored is, in fact, a priceless human treasure. Wisdom , which like virtually everything in the faith, is a quality, not a quantity. Wisdom - which cannot be acquired, only received. Wisdom - not the accumulation of facts, but the mind of God at work in your own.
