FROM EVOLUTION TO THE NEW AGE, TRUTH COMES WHEN 'WISDOM' BEATS 'KNOWLEDGE'

The other day a priest was speaking about the Book of Wisdom and recalling a meeting he'd had with a physician.

He was startled, said this priest (who was born abroad), at the haughtiness of the American doctor.

Asked this priest: what caused this arrogance?

Such knowledge was undeniable but was not to be confused, noted the priest, with wisdom.

The doctor was knowledgeable but he was not very wise. No one arrogant is.
