Doctors are concerned about keeping up with the literature, which is absurd on its face. There are millions of articles published in English alone relevant to medicine every year. If you are so aware that you could hone them down to one percent of what is published, you would have a daily reading load so heavy that you could never keep up. We have confused data with understanding, and the acquisition of massed of so called facts with wisdom. It is particularly telling that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Medical schools never mention the Lord in any positive contexts, whatever. We have grown away from the wisdom that was, perhaps, once there in medicine. Once we dropped the integrating capacity of Scripture, the data no longer makes any sense.
Excerpt from an interview with Dr. Terrell
