What is moral strength? It is nothing but stubbornness. Having a strong moral strength means having a stubborn mind. Having a stubborn mind makes one resistant to other ideas than the morals that one is already indoctrinated with thus giving one the title of having a strong mind or moral.
The laws of physics also work on ideas and thoughts. How can we identify a strong metal and a weak one? It is simply by testing their stubbornness thus their resistance. The same applies to our mind and way of thinking.
So strength means resistance and resistance comes from stubbornness. But having a good moral or an intelligent mind is a whole different issue than having a moral strength and strong mind. Anyways this teaches us that the indoctrinations that our children learn should be watched of with vigil and care. Because a strong mind wont let other ideas come between him and his convictions. But one should not be fooled, that doesn't mean that that is an intelligent mind.
