Would the Queen of Sheba describe Trump as a gazelle too?

King Solomon’s Caution About Giving Endlessly
In my earlier blog posting titled King Solomon and Sharing Wealth, I surmised King Solomon’s views why the rich should share their wealth with the poor. Many liberal politicians may believe this is best achieved through taxation. However, many rich taxpayers do not believe they should share their wealth with the non-deserving. I surmised in a novel what King Solomon may have advised the Queen of Sheba in regards to this subject based on his proverb. The novel is a contemporary application of a story form to promote understanding of proverbs and ancient wise sayings in relation to our modern times.

What King Solomon Would Advise Bloggers
King Solomon obviously enjoyed his role as a great teacher of Wisdom. He stated that it is a wise man’s duty to teach all who will listen. If he lived today, I surmise he would have a large blog following. When he would encounter a fool by their foolish comments he would practice his proverbs on what to do..
Ignore them and do
not approve their comment or make a reply back comment.
*In dealing with a fool, the best policy in certain
circumstances is to say nothing by way of a rejoinder or to say as little as
possible. If he is allowed to go on, he will discredit himself with his own
mouth and this is the most complete and bloodless victory that can be achieved.
There are certain dangers in becoming involved in a debate with a fool which
are thereby avoided, for it is difficult to take on a man whose mind is
indescribably confused without being tainted by his confusion. . In such an
encounter there is a leveling down process, and you are reduced to his level
and made to look like a fool. Nothing worse is conceivable that a fool should
become self-opinionated and behave as if his advice were valuable.
Do not answer a fool
when he speaks nonsense, let you, too, are reduced to his level,
Answer a fool when he
speaks nonsense, lest he suppose himself to be a wise man. (Proverb 26:4-5)
