reminder that philosophers today are not philosophers but only intellectuals since they do not practice anything. Philosophers today do nothing but spout concepts once the layman ask them what to think, whereas long time ago, it was the philosophers who asked the plebs what to think...

What is the height of human intellectual achievement?

yes to the pleb, no to the monks.

in being a system for the whole population, the religion must adress the lives of the public and the live of the monks. THe public being the public, it will never ever follow and therefore understand the prcepts and climb the intellectual ladder of the doctrine. Most people are not meant to become monk. A society of monks would not work anyway since it is a ful time job, becoming the opposite of the mundane life.

The task of the religion is to lead the pleb more or less towards the higher states defined by the religion. Nautrally, since the pleb is a most massive population than the monks, the religion tends to be judged from their perspective.

THe monks, them, are the best candidates to be intellectuals.
