Susan Dalton's comment on 2011-12-27 22:42:02:

"Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? There is more hope of a fool than of him." (Proverbs 26:12)

Like the prominent cravings of the presidents of the United States of America coming forth out of Mount Rushmore, is a man wise in his own conceits. For out of his inner mind onto his outer appearance is seen an outcropping like unto the carvings of the presidents seen protruding out from the mountain.

It says, "I am wise, I am wise without God; my wisdom is wiser than God."

The Word of God says, "...there is more hope of a fool than of him."

Though in his mind, his wisdom is seen like the carvings coming forth out of Mount Rushmore; he will die a fool: he chose not the Wisdom of God.
