| The "Batman" equation |
Imagine a mind skilled enough to "draw" this by writing an equation? Frankly, its a bit hard for me to fathom someone like this! But, having worked with scientists for many, many years, I have known people like this. The thing is- far too many of them are a very prideful lot. But, I am thankful to have also know a great number of them who were just ordinary people with an exceedingly great intellect!!!
Intellect can be a wonderful thing, but if it keeps you from God and creates a barrier to ones entrance into heaven- what good is it?
Consider...
1 Corinthians, Chapter 1 (World English Bible)
18: For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are saved it is the power of God.
19: For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing."
20: Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the lawyer of this world? Hasn't God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
21: For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn't know God, it was God's good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.
22: For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,
23: but we preach Christ crucified; a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Greeks,
24: but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.
25: Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
(emp. added GDR)
26: For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble;
27: but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong;
28: and God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that are not, that he might bring to nothing the things that are:
29: that no flesh should boast before God.
30: But of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:
31: that, according as it is written, "He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord."
I will never be a "genius", and that is fine. Being just smart enough to do what I really want to do is all that I have ever wanted. Success, I am what I am and I pray that God will use me according to HIS WILL. Now, that is something to boast about!!!
The equation and graph is nice, but I really would like to see the "bat-signal" - just once!!!
