Theology has fallen out of intellectual favor.
If you mean, among so-called intellectuals in general, I agree. Theology itself, however, is self-consciously intellectual - and not in a good way.
Personally, I have lost most of my interest in theology, precisely because it has become hubristic intellectualism. It lacks a spiritual core.
I am neither inherently anti-intellectual nor anti-theological (although I have unjustly been accused of both): I garnered math and science awards in school, was an honor graduate, am a member of Mensa, was debating theologians at 16 (at a private Christian prep school), and attending pastoral conferences at 19 (by special invitation).
I saw too much of the spiritual vacuum at its core - and saw how Christian friends changed by far for the worse after attending seminary. They became arrogant and secular, adopting Marxist concepts, and denying Biblical truths - even including the Resurrection. I ultimately lost my longtime best friend to such apostasy: He became an ordained minister, but preached a false Gospel.
I was in lay ministry in my 20s, and being groomed for seminary. I decided not to go. I did not want to become like that. I wanted wisdom, not just knowledge.
The Apostles were not seminarians, not theologians; they were disciples of Jesus Christ: They knew him, and walked with him. The closest one to a theologian was the one born out of time, the chief of sinners, the one consenting to murder.
I would rather read the Bible than Christian Dogmatics. If I have to read human philosophy, then I glean more edification from Tree and Leaf by JRR Tolkien, or Mere Christianity (or God in the Dock, or Screwtape letters, or any of the others) by CS Lewis, than from formal theology.
To paraphrase someone I once heard: I am not very interested in what Man has to say about God; I am much more interested in what God has to say about Man.
“Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.” [Acts 4:13]
The Sanhedrin in the main rejected Jesus.
