A Warning about the Intelligentsia

I think this is a great warning about the influence of the intelligentsia.  There are a lot of people who think they are smarter than God.  These verses warn against listening to them.

Colossians 2:8-10(NKJV)

Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. 

For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; 

and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.

And remember other parts of Scripture warn that you will be held accountable if you allow yourself to be led astray. 

Now I can hear some saying "That's not fair.  It wasn't my fault".  Well actually it is your fault.  God gave you plenty of warning in Scripture like the verses above.  If you ignore those warnings and allow yourself to be led astray it is indeed your fault!
