Eventually, someone will twist them to their advantage. (This is not pointed specifically at you, more of a general 'you.') I'd try not to trust anyone who told me I was too dumb to understand a book, too...which I think was a tactic used by the Catholic church back before Martin Luther and the translation of the Bible into common tongues.
