Intellectual Schmaltz Is NOT Wisdom

I happened to catch Larry King interviewing Stephen Hawking on Larry King Live yesterday, discussing Hawkin's new book - Grand Design.

In on the discussion were co-author Leonard Mlodinow - physicist at Cal Tech; Father Robert J. Spitzer - Jesuit priest and president of the Magis Center of Faith and Reason and Spitzer Center for Ethical Leadership; Deepak Chopra - spiritual teacher and best-selling author.

Read the transcript - it's fascinating.

What struck me most is how intellectually stimulating they were, yet in the end they had no answers to the core question they were posing (whether they knew it or not) - does the Supreme Creator exist?

They knew everything, yet knew nothing of the most critical question probably reflected upon by most who have ever lived. Weird huh?

Gives credence to our view at WISDOMS... the more YOU know, the less YOU know!

Keep YOUR mind open... and beware the intellectual schmaltz that turns many into unthinking followers of hot air.
