The New Generation: Smarter but Not Wiser

C Mc

"Human life today isn't becoming easier, in spite of prosperity and opportunity. We may have more but we enjoy less; we may be smarter, but not wiser; we may gain more knowledge, but less discernment. Why? Because we have too many distractions, too many contradictions, too many choices, too many opportunities, a fullness that keeps us jumping and empty, a variety that leaves us suspended, half-fulfilled." 

Is this the life of today's Christian, too? CM
