According to The Bible... there are TWO KINDS OF WISDOM:
"For it is written: 'I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.' Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the WISDOM OF THIS WORLD? For since in the WISDOM OF GOD the world through its wisdom did not know Him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe." (I Cor.1:19-21 NIV)
"...CHRIST the power of God and the WISDOM OF GOD. For the foolishness of God is wiser than MAN'S WISDOM..." (verses 24-25).
