On Thursday I talked about the Elite Snob but I mustn’t forget his cousin, Mr. Know It All! With these kinds of people you cannot tell them anything because they know it all. If you ever make the mistake of forgetting about this, they will belittle you in the most humiliating way. How dare you even try to correct them!

In the end it’s best to let them drown in their own ignorance pool because anyone of true intelligence knows that wisdom comes from having the humility to recognise that you don’t know everything.

And, the greatest component of wisdom is recognising that no matter how much you know, there is always much more to know.

Some say the beginning of wisdom is the fear of God but Mr., Ms and Mrs Know It All is even impervious to this. They prefer to steadfastly believe God is a figment of people’s imagination and does not even exist.

But guess who they turn to when major trouble comes knocking on their door? God help them. I’d actually be glad if he didn’t but then God isn’t that kind of character!

And he does really know it all…
