Those numbers are way higher than I would've thought. Can't wait to hear/read some of the interpretations of those numbers  .

One possible interpretation is the more you learn, the less you know  TB (Likes to stir the pot.)

(Likes to stir the pot.)I would restate that as: The more you learn, the more you realize how little you actually know.

The problem is that some men think that the more they learn that they become to smart for a God.

Bravo AndrewR,
This is quite the case. The paradox of true wisdom is that the wise understand that they are not wise. Not because they measure their intellectual capacity against the standards of a deity but because they understand that the learning process never ceases with the freedom to question everything. Incontestable absolutes often invoked in religions promote a pale imitation of "wisdom" bestowed upon the most learned of religious scholars. That kind of "wisdom" is a white elephant so to speak.
