Even a genius can be one...
"As a dog return to its vomit, so a fool repeats his folly" ( Proverbs 26;11)Fools in modern English are people who lacks brain. But the word has different meaning in the bible. Fools may have high IQ's. People may admire their reputations for success. Yet a wise person view them as a disaster.
The danger of becoming a fool is like a man who ignoring wisdom God has offering him. He recognizes his offence before the Lord ask for forgiveness and yet repeating the same mistake over and over again. Like a dog return to its vomit, the fool repeat his folly.
One of the bible greatest insult is "You fool!". People become fool by neglecting God's instruction. They may think themselves very clever but it will only land them into trouble. A wise person ought to learn to recognize a fool from far away and stay out of his path.
