It is Smart to be Humble
Humility is intelligent because you are limited.
Humility is logical because there is an unlimited God.
Humility is rational because you are not Him.
Humility says “I am right because….” and then gives reasons anyone can dispute. The Wise test these reasons and become wiser.
Arrogance says “I am right regardless…” and then commits to ignoring reasons he might be wrong. The Fool hates anything that suggests that he made a mistake.
There is no pride in ignorance and no honor in arrogance. There is no shame in making a mistake. There is nothing but shame in making the same mistake over and over again.
The fool says in his heart “there is no God”
The idiot babbles nonsense and claims wisdom.
Don’t be like them. Seek wisdom and understanding. Defend wisdom it with reasons and logic. Seek someone to correct you and commit to following the right path, regardless of how much ignorant fools and arrogant idiots want you to give it up.
