Arguing With a Fool
fool = someone that will not listen to practical wisdom
Don't Argue with a Fool.
Arguing with a fool is like wrestling in the mud—after a while, it's hard to tell who's who.
The Bible says in Proverbs 26:4,
"Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you yourself will be just like him."
- Not every comment deserves a response.
- Not every challenge deserves your energy.
- Not every battle is yours to fight.
- Fools argue to win.
- The wise seek peace.
- Fools shout to be heard.
- The wise stay silent to be understood.
Protect your peace. Don't waste your wisdom on ears that refuse to hear. Sometimes the best answer is no answer at all.
