Religion and rituality

[Rahul]

Should I answer a fool, should I, well the two verses you've cherry picked to make me look foolish has the answer.

Cherry picked? One immediately follows the other one.

That's not cherry picking.

Verses 4 says I shouldn't answer the foolishness of a fool because it could make me look foolish, the writer of this Proverb says do not reward the fool with an answer because you could get pulled into a foolish argument. Yet the next verse says to answer the fool, does look like a contradiction, but wait, not so, the writer is telling us to discern the fools statement and if necessary answer the fool so he want think so much of himself, expose the foolishness of the fool so others can see his foolishness. So in the end were told to be careful and discern what you should do with a fool and his foolishness.

I guess anyone can make sense out of any retarded shit. Especially theists. It's their stock and trade.
