Did Curiosity Really Kill the Cat?
Curiosity and Faith
We are all familiar with the saying that warns, “curiosity killed the cat.” However, stifling curiosity and the desire to learn and explore is a poor way to go through life. Most of humanity’s great discoveries result from a healthy, even courageous curiosity. Curiosity was key to the successes of great influencers throughout history (long before the term “influencer” entered popular vocabulary), including people like Leonardo Da Vinci, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, and Steve Jobs. The Bible suggests that curiosity, the desire to learn and acquire greater wisdom, to gain insight and understanding, should be part of life. In this Garden service (1/29/2023), we consider how curiosity can lead us into a deeper and more meaningful faith.
