Great answer Bill and Russell, but still I 'FEEL' there is some thing missing call it intuition, does that word have any ground in philosophy? Any way to the topic:
A simple question for me to ask, what is wisdom? And; "mans wisdom" is wisdom to have inner wisdom ie He finds answers to his own life thereby giving him inner peace contentment joy and happiness he has found inner equilibrium that keeps him free from all those negativities of mind, and he has also found the answer to the external influences that may of had control over his own mind, and by finding the ingredients to having "OWN" inner peace, (Equilibrium) he therefore has the ingredients for other people also to have their inner peace. Therefore he can advise for the so called unwise who have not got those ingredients of wisdom.
And for those people who are wise, where would we say they had been given this wisdom from? Can we say from genetics, environment or from a bit of both? Or is there some way they "Process" their own minds so that they can see things more clearly ie a mind discipline that the unwise do not have.
For instance can you focus your attention on one issue sufficiently to come to a wise answer if your mind has many many other thoughts running through it to much data or over flow of thought, possibly creating the unwise.
And if a man has the ability to stem all thoughts except the issue itself will that ability to focus mean he will come up with better answers, that is he comes up with the wisest answers ?
A metaphor could fit this bill: If we fill a barrel with water and the barrel has many leaks in it none of the leaks have any force, yet if we can block the leaks and only keep one leak open then this has all the energy or all the focus and a better answer is given.
In this analogy we could say wisdom is about the ability to have self mental discipline and total focus, which can be trained, therefore that would not make it totally genetic though genetics and environment cannot be ruled out.
Does any body agree with this analogy of Wisdom?
If not can you point out where you think this analogy fails specifically?

A state of conciousness beyond mind
There is a state of consciousness that goes beyond mind, it is here that god or what is labelled god can be identified by individuals separately within each self, as scientists we may call this zero point energy as everything stops even breath, but this can only be repeated within each person who pursues these deep levels of research of their own human psyche, I can vouch for this level as I have made my own research in deep levels of meditation.
What is rational?
To have a 'Belief' is not a rational thing, one should "KNOW" God, or god, or be rational enough to say: One does NOT know.

ABOUT THE CHURCH AND PETER
Phillipou Albert CornickMargie.....to further rebut the Protestant argument that Jesus was speaking about Peter’s confession of faith (not Peter himself) based on the revelation he received, the verses are clear that Jesus, after acknowledging Peter’s receipt of d...ivine revelation, turns the whole discourse to the person of Peter: Blessed are “you” Simon, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to “you,” and I tell “you,” “you” are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church. I will give “you” the keys to the kingdom, and whatever “you” bind and loose on earth will be bound and loosed in heaven. Jesus’ whole discourse relates to the person of Peter, not his confession of faith.
This is what I read from the bible also and what I try to understand was how can you build a church on Peter? There was some thing about Peter that made Jesus say this, ie he recognised that he was Messiah, in order to recognise him he, only in my opinion must have had great faith, and that makes sense to me otherwsie none of it does, also when you think that Jesus said he was going to build a church in 3 days. Remember also that Peter was the one who had so much faith that he walked accross the water to meet Jesus, though he failed at the last moment as everyone knows, and when they were about to crucify him he also run away, in fact when you think about that time Judas Iscariot was the only one who laid down his life because of Jesus.
Can you tell me where it is shown that the church was meant to be a solid structure? Another thing Jesus said where two or three gather in my name there shall I be that is what I understood to be his church, there was still no reference to a solid structure what do you think Margie?See More7 minutes ago ·- Phillipou Albert Cornick If a groups of us come together in Christs name and have the faith of Peter, then that would bring Christ to us, that is my simple reasoning going on what I have said, a solid structure built on Peter just does not make sense to you get what I mean?6 minutes ago ·
- Phillipou Albert Cornick In spiritualist churches groups of people come together to call up spirits of deceased people as they did in the time of Saul, not only do they call up spirits but it has also been common knowledge that they call up angels and God, and of course when you consider the occult they also call up demons, now this is done by groups of people coming together in the way Jesus suggests, there seems to be certainly a relationship here and the tool they use in this calling up is actually Belief, or if you like FAITH.
