I think it’s time for me to get back to my series of New Testament comments. So here we go:

Compare Matthew 18:3; John 3:3, 5
Jesus’ attention to little children tells us many things.
Among them, we learn that he doesn’t value wealth, status, power, sophistication, class, or degrees.
He just doesn’t care.
Nor, apart from the very specific situations in which such things might be directly relevant — e.g., you want your brain surgeon to have a medical degree — should we.
