Our "intellect" has advanced markedly through the years, but when we talk about the world's truly "wisest" men...we have to go back a couple thousand years to find them. Who is the Jesus, Buddha, Socrates and Plato of today? It seems that the more we improve "intellectually"...the more we are left behind "wisdom-wise".
