This is why I believe gullibility is good. It is childlike, it is innocence. It is in our nature to be gullible. It is what is most beautiful about us.

Now, that said, it is also was makes us easy to exploit. It's not the gullibility, per se, that is a bad trait. Actually, the bad trait would be sniffing out vulnerabilities and eating them for breakfast. I'm talking generalities here. In most basic Christian thought, Satan is the lie. Sometimes we get 'had' - live and learn.

I can't believe I'm posting on this thread again. I am going to regret it
