Proverbs 18:2 tells us that a fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion. This is certainly true of many people today. They would rather argue about their opinions than try to understand what is really true. This is a dangerous way to live, because it leads to division and conflict instead of harmony and cooperation. The wise person, on the other hand, takes pleasure in understanding. He realizes that there are often multiple sides to every issue, and that it is important to seek out the truth. This attitude leads to peace and unity rather than division and conflict. So which do you want to be: a fool who takes no pleasure in understanding, or a wise person who seeks after truth? The choice is yours.
