Title: What is more important, imagination or knowledge?
Post by: marieelissa on October 10, 2010, 10:00:26 am
Do you agree with Albert Einstein?
Do you believe that the true sign of intelligence is not knowledge, but imagination?

What is more important, imagination or knowledge?

You can hire people with knowledge, but it won't do you much good unless you have imagination. Thinking up how to apply knowledge is where the big money is.

You don't say why you think that, but a quick look at our banners should give you a clue what works best.

THe two should go hand in hand. You should have as much knowledge as you have imagination. What good is knowledge without the imagination to put it to good use?

Knowledge + imagination = ipods, desktop computers, smart phones, and every other gadget we find useful in our life.

I don't know where your getting at, but most people who are religious don't do the research and thus they get called out by atheists.  Hence the whole mystery and just accept it, vs the knowledge and science of the atheists.  In retrospect knowledge and science are actually in harmony with the bible, it's the theories that are not in harmony with the bible.

P.S. Yes I used the word in place of imagination for this topic  :)
