God’s Concept of Wisdom AN AMAZING FACT: Scientists have discovered a way to “jam” a part of the human brain related to wisdom. In the experiments, people were exposed to a social situation that they would normally consider unfair. While a part of their prefrontal cortex was “jammed,” by a purportedly harmless pulse of electromagnetic energy, people were unable to act in response to the unfair situation. (Any volunteers?) William Shakespeare once wrote, “The fool doth think he is wise, but…

TAKING OUR BLESSINGS FOR GRANTED I really think it’s true that the more you have the more you take for granted. I was recently talking to my daughter about a family she knows with several kids and they invited a couple of these children for a play date.
