I cannot disagree with you :-). Dumbing down of the masses is what they achieved for a long long time. Intentionally? Or was it the byproduct of the churches inability to pass on the wisdoms to the flock? Or was the whole concept flawed and corrupted from the onset? Hmm... Organised religion....who organises them ? The same humans wearing priestly robes :-) I met people that think ...: to be meek is to be mentally retarded, simple, stupid. I wonder what would god say about this....haha
