Why people are so retarded.

I'm constantly shocked at how intuitively handicapped most people are. They just cannot recognize the obvious on it's face, can't recognize a liar or scammer at face value. Can't see the evil behind people's eyes or words. Don't recognize threats around them.

Constantly saying retarded stuff like "you have no way of knowing that!" and demanding like peer-reviewed studies for things that are blatantly obvious. THEY have know way of knowing that, because despite some of them having high IQs they have like zero wisdom.

I think a lot of it is just how dead they are spiritually. The Bible says "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" and even if they nominally believe in God they don't really put any effort into understanding Him but instead just believe what "religious leaders" tell them like obvious unbiblical retardation like "Israel is our greatest ally".

The Bible also says "...the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned."

Spiritually Discerned almost everyone, religious or not, operates as if they are just a mind and body but we have a spirit too and they ignore that entire aspect of their being which cuts them off from the best source of judgement. Recognizing things on a spiritual level is more sure than weighing a pros and cons list when it comes to making right judgements.

The Bible also says "the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light." Which seems to be speaking to a sort of inverse wisdom the wicked have, wise about their wickedness. We see that they are clever and able to discern ways to commit and to get away with their evil. But if it were true wisdom it would lead to peace in their hearts. Which the wicked never have.

So you have a small population of people who are wise in the ways of evil and are very powerful in earthly terms, money, influence, etc. A small population of people that are truly wise and to various degrees in-line with the creator who can actually tell what's going on to various degrees. And vast numbers of just completely lost people just going with whatever herd they find themselves in.

This lines up with the broad categories of people the Bible describes. The fool, the simple and the wise. There's also a fourth special category, the reprobate.

The simple are just the untethered, most of them don’t think deeply enough about anything to even have an opinion of their own. You hear them repeating talking points from the TV if they claim to hold a position at all.

The fools think they have it figured out. They filled their minds with fake science or fake spiritualism or political ideologies or whatever vain garbage they get their identities from, anything but the true God who made them and who will judge them. (The fool hath said in his heart ‘there is no God’).

The reprobates are just the irredeemably wicked. They are fools so advanced in their wickedness that God just rejects them outright and irrevocably while they still live. Most of what we call “the elites” are reprobates but reprobates exist at every strata of society. Romans 1 tells us a lot about them:

“Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools…God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly...And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind …filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.”

The wise are those who, in the fear of the Lord, learn of and commune with God. Jesus called it being born-again. When you believe God and entrust your destiny to Jesus, your dead spirit is made alive (quickened) and God's spirit communes with you (the indwelling of the Holy Spirit). You then have access to God's wisdom. And it seems clear that the degree of access you get is dependent upon the degree to which you follow Him and do the things He tells you to.
