Quote by Bertrand Russell
So far as I can remember, there is not one word in the Gospels in praise of intelligence.
Summary
This quote suggests that, in the Gospels, there is no explicit commendation or glorification of human intellectual abilities. It implies that attributes like faith, humility, compassion, and righteousness are more emphasized and valued in the Gospels than sheer intelligence or intellectual prowess. Instead of highlighting the power of reasoning or knowledge, the focus seems to be on the virtues of the heart and the soul in the teachings and examples presented in the Gospels.
