idiot to know which finger you use to point a person to heaven. 

One thing I have discovered about idiots is they are not confined to
race, gender or age. You can find idiots anywhere there are people 
still breathing. An idiot is an equal opportunity engager. 

Being an idiot does have its advantages. For example, when my wife sends
me to the store to buy some items for the house and I come back with 
everything but what's on the list I can say, “I just must be an idiot.” 
And, do not let this get back to her, it always works. 

If you know who you are and what you are, you can begin using that
information to your advantage. If you know you are an idiot then you 
can bank on that for the rest of your life. 

The difference between an idiot and a fool is simply that an idiot is a
little short of knowledge. Solomon understood this when he wrote, “The 
fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise 
wisdom and instruction” (Proverbs 1:7). And, “The way of a fool is 
right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise” 
(Proverbs 12:15). 

I suppose I can't help being an idiot, but I certainly don't have to be
a fool as Solomon describes it.
