We have all been told that there is no such thing as a stupid question. This is false. Paul says that there are foolish questions. <ref>[[Tit 3:9]] ¶ But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.</ref> Our first task is to determine if a question is foolish, then if it is not, simply teach the scriptures. | We have all been told that there is no such thing as a stupid question.
