Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?
This is an interesting question, so it follows that the TV Show has some appeal to people like me. I have seen the show a couple of times and have been impressed by the young people who represent the 5th graders. Their immediate responses to the question, the steely resolve when questioned by their opponent, the obvious joy in knowing that the older person opponent is struggling to find the answers, and their freedom.
In other places in our land, and in some other nations, this snapshot of life is far from reality. Where severe malnutrition, poverty, slavery, war, and human trafficking, steal the potentiality of life from young children. This is a situation that the world cannot ignore. In many cases, some people are getting very rich, without any regard to the human lives that are being destroyed.
Do we contribute to the destruction of other lives? How smart are we, really?
Micah 6:8 (KJV)
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
