Intelligence is ones ability to learn and what one may have achieved academically.
However wisdom, is the comprehension of what is true and right coupled with ones ability to optimally
apply, perception,knowledge,judgement, and discernment.

I thought you might appreciate this.....
“Excerpt from my lecture Sunday February 22, 2015 at Soul-Esteem Center


10 Commandments - God knew when he gave us choice some would make the wrong choices, but God wanted his creation, man, to have free will and felt later it necessary to write the 10 Commandants as a reminder of how God wanted his creations to perform. The 10 Commandants contain 5 positives and five negatives”

Perception & Duality

Excerpt - Chapter 10 Perception and Duality
Nevertheless, can you imagine how the world would be without bad or evil existing? Everything, that exists on the planet simply being good, pure, and pleasurable, without the existence of any negativity. If all that existed on the planet were good without any evil, with no negative acts ever occurring, how would we perceive life? There would be no wars, no military, no crime, no police, no lawyers, no disputes, no courts, no fires, no firefighters, no paramedics, no emergencies, no disease, no doctors, no health organizations, no insurance companies, no charities, no entity needed to counteract evil, no negativity, and no help agencies. Society would have a fundamentally and radically different structure; a world without any emotions, it would perpetuate a totally and extraordinarily different perception of life. We would have lost our individuality without the existence of emotions, in a society without bad or evil, which are the common denominators for virtually all-negative emotions without their opposites. The nonexistence of negativity would also mean the nonexistence of love, peace, and joy, without their comparisons to distinguish differences. Emotions would be virtually non-existent without their opposites. Members of the human race would likely function in virtually an identical manner. All people, in effect, would be the same in demeanor and attitude. Any emotion remaining would be infinitesimal and unnoticeable and would achieve little difference in people’s performance—hence, no individuality.

Excerpt from The Strength in Knowing  by I. Alan Appt  

Chapter 5 Belief Systems  

Then think of the planet perfectly suspended in space, at the exact proper distance from the sun. Any closer to the sun, and the planet would burn up. Any further away from the sun, and the planet would freeze. The earth is ninety-three million miles from the sun, and it takes light from the sun about eight minutes to reach the earth, at a speed of one hundred eighty-six thousand miles per second. The earth circles the sun at an approximate speed of sixty-seven thousand miles per hour, and at the same time, it rotates on its axis as it circles the sun. This in turn enables the surface of the earth to cool and warm evenly and properly. As far as scientists know at the moment, the earth is thus far the only known planet that has the exact correct atmospheric mixture of substances to sustain all our life forms. The atmosphere we enjoy today is dramatically different from the atmosphere that formed with the Earth billions of years ago. With time, the Earth’s life-giving atmosphere formed and is what we live with today: twenty-one percent oxygen, seventy-eight percent nitrogen, and about one percent argon and carbon dioxide.

Everything on the planet currently remains in a state of consistent perfection, even when there are changes for human or other forms of life. Perfection remains as perfection in itself. When leaves turn color and fall, this is part of the trees’ natural process of evolution. Humans remain in perfection even with age and body changes. Our sun with its tremendous explosions from within, including solar flares, remains in perfection in and of itself. All entities in and of themselves with changes due to time continually remain in their own state of perfection for the current period in their existence. Think of the sunrise and the sunset and the way the moon rises and sets or how its phases change. Think of the ocean tides, of gravity, of the twenty-four hours between sunrise and sunset, or how water can change to ice and then back to water or to a vapor. Think of all natural occurrences that exist and continually change.
