However, spiritually speaking, I am afraid I would have to say that we are so "third world" right now!

I can say that there are a handful of cogregations out there that actually encourage members to use their God given gifts of questioning and critical thinking abilities to gain a larger grasp of spiritual matters. As a Chistian, I do believe that the Holy Spirit leds you in those dirrections, and that the Kingdom of God is at hand. With that in mind,I am much more inclined to diligently seek and serve Him...which includes growing my intelligence.
