Human intellect is great but it is not what we need in understanding God. We need the Spirit. In the same way we don't smell the colors or see the taste of food, we need the Spirit to know God. No wonder anyone who tries to know God intellectually fall away from Him and consider it foolishness. That is exactly what the Bible says.
"The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit."- 1 Corinthians 2:14
Therefore a person who does not believe in God and the one who does can be equally mentally skilled and totally opposite in their views of God. Again, we need the Spirit. Makes sense? If you are an unbeliever and this does not make sense to you, again, I understand. Peace!
