19 For it is written:
"I will destroy the wisdom of the wise;
the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate."

20 Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
1 Corinthians 1:19-21

"I will destroy the wisdom of the wise..."

This condition is called in the Vedas "mayaya pahrita jnana" - meaning someone whose knowledge is stolen by illusion. If someone has a great brain or intellect, and decides to use that tool as a weapon against God and His natural laws, that intellect or knowledge becomes the darkest illusion. Better to be retarded and have simple faith in God. This kind of people are very dangerous. They are not content to be faithless demons, they want to convert others to the dark loneliness of atheism, and thereby destroy the world. It is a very disturbing article.
