I meet people everyday who give what they think is perfectly good advice for things they know nothing about. Last week I was listening to a lawyer discuss some aspect of mineral exploration quite convincingly but completely wrong. The best thing you can do with people like that is just nod and agree. They have reached a special level of incompetence and don't know what they don't know and instead think a smattering of knowledge in their speciality gives them the right to be an expert on everything. We have seen this very same thing with Brumar who labels himself a Christian and then has to be continually educated about the his own religion. There is a laziness in him that thinks possession of a book is somehow the same as knowledge of a book. And then bickering and snarling he claims everyone that upbraids him hates God instead of his own ignorance. He wants to selectively interpret the book even changing parts of it for his own greedy ends and believes in guilt and blame and punishment to achieve that goal.
