According to evolution, they're called "wise men" ... or Homo sapiens in the documents.

And according to Paul, that's a no-no.
Not sure why you're telling me this. I think you know the sense in which I used the word intelligent. I'm sure you also know that intelligence and wisdom are two different things. But I always liked Fr. Alexander Schmemann's statement that we are first and foremost homo adorans, or worshipping man.

Depends on the object of our worship.

Not exactly the same thing is it?

I'm probably not going to hit a second puberty and become a god.
Certainly not exactly the same, but it has something in common which is unique.
