@Setanta,
That is not an insult. If you knew anything about the bible you would know that. It is biblical facts. An intellectual idiot is one who trusts their intellect over the bible. An idiot is one who is unlearned in the scriptures. This bible talk is really away over your head.
1 Cor 14:23
23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?
(KJV)
2399 idiotes (id-ee-o'-tace);
from 2398; a private person, i.e. (by implication) an ignoramus (compare "idiot"):
KJV-- ignorant, rude, unlearned.
