It is simply not true. Ministers who receive seminary training are no more likely to loss their relationship with Christ than some one with no training. You have a pretty bleak view of education! Are you afraid that too much study about Jesus is going to disprove Christianity?
Seminary and Christian are not mutually exclusive concepts, gentleman. I have a dim view of equating genuine Christianity with anti-intellectualism.
how is it practical not to be educated?

It is not highly intellectual to be indoctrinated and trained to indoctrinate... It is simply highly practical, from a worldly point of view.
What’s the matter p. won’t they let you into college? It seems that usually those that are the most against education are those that are not educated.
Your taunting merely reveals you don't understand what is being said.
I have no desire to go to college. Yeah, maybe if I applied, I wouldn't make it in... I don't know. If that's the case, it could actually run to my advantage (I'm talking like a man), God takes the foolish things to upset the wise!
Paul said he came in power, NOT in wise words well put together. The standard today is the very opposite. If you can talk smooth and well, you'd make a good pastor! But the devil himself has the slickest of tongues...

Paul was a highly educated man.
Act 22:3 I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.
Once again, p, you have no idea what you are talking about. But you just continue on your path.
Yeah... And when he was converted he had to relearn everything and counted all those things as dung!
Good point actually... This man who was highly educated in the scriptures was one of the greatest single persecutors of the church of Christ!
We are being led by what...intellectual stimuli or the Spirit???
