Man's Intelligence

I would have to disagree with Ganhi and his view of man's abuse of the intellect God provided. Ganhi believes that "God gifted man with intellect that he might know his Maker. Man abused it so that he might forget his Maker." But I believe that God created man with the knowledge that man would make the most of his intelligence and create the world we have today not as a way to run away from God, but as a way to use God's gifts to the best of our ability.
