[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 500590, member: 2844"]At the risk of getting another sneer from you, your quote from Ecclesiastes refers to the emptiness and senselessness of the fleeting world, not to conceit, as your translator says. I only react to your post because as a theologian I would prefer it if people didn't misquote valued spiritual heritage. The fleeting world is of course the world you deal with every day, every object you take in your hand, and every query about items you or anyone else posts on this forum. Every sneer or insult you chose to post is also part of the fleeting world, so according to your own quote, also empty and senseless. That behaviour is your choice, but also your show of ingratitude to someone who defended you against a bully when you first came here, and has tried to help you in every post. Such is the fleeting world, so I will leave it at this.[/QUOTE]
