Based on personal experience and a little bit of self-awareness, I would have to agree. Granted, I'm not a M.A. yet, but I'm pretty sure another degree will do very little to alter my foolish ways.
Proverbs 28:26: Whoever trusts in his own mind is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered.
Proverbs 29:20: Do you see a man who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

You know this is only making me laugh...b/c I love you. In your multiple M.A. world, and honest awareness of our fleshly selves!
Tonight I'm feeling very foolish for even trying for an M.A. About half an hour ago I told Sarah that I can't believe sometimes that I voluntarily signed up for this...:-)
I remember a grad school prof in Math who was famous for asking his soon-to-be Masters' grads (in his Oriental dialect), "Ah, so now you have Master degree; but tell me, what have you mastered?" The more you learn, the more you learn you have learned very little, eh?
thank you for the reminder :)
