And that is a problem. You should.

Are you high?

It's a start, that if kept true to, will lead one to correct one's behaviour.

We start valuing ourselves more than God, that itself is enough of a sin.  But this can be turned around with fear. Fear is a wisdom that applies whether we value God more then ourselves or ourselves more than God. If we value our selves more, we will be lead to value God more. If we value God more, we will fear the trait of valuing ourselves more.

It's the beginning of wisdom, a way to safeguard it, but it's not it's purpose nor it's goal.

There is nothing wrong with my behavior to the point that it needs "correcting".
I do value myself more than a magical sky daddy who has never done a thing for me. He's completely imaginary, while I am not. I place value on tangible, touchable people, not an entity I cannot see or talk to.

I know you try MK, but honestly, this stuff isn't going to work here.
