Several other areas of study which bear fruit include Linquistics, foreign language, Law, and Bible Study.

The Hebrew God is the only God to have made a contract with man. His Word documents the promises of behavior made in those covenants in history and in the future. In order to understand that Plan, one has to understand His Word.

Nearly every reputable university in the US was originally founded as institutions to develop an education to understand Scripture. Later, those same halls were distracted by the Adversary interrupting their endeavors from within, using the same temptations of worldliness, so common throughout all temptation.

It’s no wonder the intellectual community is so fraught with antichristian thinking, because thinking is the beginning point of our relationship with Christ. When it is distracted or interrupted, the Adversary is able to parlay that distraction into evil.

I'd beg to differ. Religions are full of such claims.

Scientific understanding is in no way a distraction or the work of “the Adversary”; it is the most productive and useful means of gathering reliable and replicable information about God's creation and most certainly part of God's plan and had a hallowed hall in those same institutions of learning that you praise. Indeed Gregor Mendel's careful scientific scrutiny of the molecules of inheritance, the preservation and cultivation of knowledge in the Abby's and Universities under Church patronage have been of invaluable aid in the history of scientific advancement. That is because there is no contradiction between Science and true religion.
