What is  'foolish pride'?
137086
Foolish pride is the pride that keeps you from doing what you know you ought to do.\n\nFor example, if you have a fight with a person, foolish pride says, "let the other person initiate reconciliation first."  You know reconciliation is the right thing, but foolish pride talks you out of it.  We foolishly think that we deserve the other person to start the process.  This overlooks the fact that the more mature person is the one who initiates reconciliation.\n\nMaybe another way to say it is taking pride in foolish things, like one-up man ship.

Bless you, Child, of course it is, but it all depends on what you believe those words (ignorant, foolish, cynical and pessimistic) actually mean to you.\nI tend to be foolish about a few things and I often look foolish to other people. I however, rarely care. I like myself, I'm loved by other people, and for me life is mostly good.\nIgnorant? Everyone is. If they say they're not, they're either fooling themselves or lying. (probably not intentional...that would make us cynical)\nCynical? Again, everyone is about one thing or another. I was governmentally cynical at the age of 9.\nPessimistic all comes down to your POV. The glass is either half full, half empty, or as I like to put it "I know more water is forthcoming" or "it's mostly empty and someone peed in the rest of it".\nIt all depends on who you want to be.

ITS THE OPPOSITE OF HOW THE GAY BASHERS ACT.  THEY ACT IMMATURE.  IT MEANS BEING RESPONSIBLE AND ACTING LIKE AN ADULT NOT A LITTLE KID.

you may think this, but actually some people are the opposite as far as broadcasting thier pride.  they feel maybe that they are overcoming or have overcome obstacles and are proud.  i see nothing wrong with it.  maybe it is a way to encourage people of thier same culture to also strive to succeed.  i think this is actually promoting confidence, not low self-esteem.  low self-esteem is blamed for too much these days, in my opinion.  low self-esteem is being used a lot, i think, as an excuse for just any old thing.  perhaps the "mexican pride" people are simply proud of who they are and thier culture.  i see no hint of low self-esteem here, perhaps you need a dictionary.  while looking up self-esteem, you might opt to look up prejudice.........

There is a difference between being grieved by pride and disliking it in others. Lewis was seeing it left and right with the higher thinkers he hung around with. "Oh, how I dislike that man's arrogance," one of them probably said. Lewis knew that the person saying it was just as arrogant. One thing I can tell about you, Irish, is that if you are concerned with being prideful, you probably have nothing to worry about. Seeing it in other people just means you are sensitive to it. But let God handle the prideful one and just ask the Lord to search your heart daily.

To "suffer the fools" means to be tolerant of people being idiots.  I have to suffer fools all day at school, so I know this term well.

Ways Through which Pride could be Defeated:\n•Believe in God.\n•Remember this Life will end one day and door to another world will open.\n•Remember God oposes the Proud and Favours the humble.\n•Pride was the sin of Satan.\n•If you can feel love than you won’t be proud, Jesus’s life shows us the true humility, he was God but he made him lower than everything. This was because he loved us that is how we can defeat the pride which is in us.\n\nSatan Was Proud and Wanted to be The Most High(God):\n12 How you have fallen from heaven, \n       O morning star, son of the dawn! \n       You have been cast down to the earth, \n       you who once laid low the nations! \n    13 You said in your heart, \n       "I will ascend to heaven; \n       I will raise my throne \n       above the stars of God; \n       I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, \n       on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. [c] \n    14 I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; \n       I will make myself like the Most High." \nIsaiah 14:12-14\n\nGod Opposes the Proud:\n1 Peter 5:5 \nYoung men, in the same way be submissive to those who are older. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." [ Prov. 3:34]\n\nLuke 1:51 \nHe has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts.\n\nLuke 18:9-14 \nThe Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector \n    9To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: 10"Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11The Pharisee stood up and prayed about[a] himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. 12I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' \n    13"But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, 'God, have mercy on me, a sinner.' \n    14"I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted." \n\n\nLuke 18:14 "I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."\n\nSee the example of Jesus:\n. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.\nPhilipians ch: 2

Saying "I was wrong and I want to make things right"  takes a HUGE amount of humility in this pride filled world.  Thats just a people thing, I'm not going there with the Islam issue.\n\nFor most people on most issues, it is the absolute last resort.  Abandonment of others is preffered.\n\nJust my thought\n\nDavid
