I believe all the worlds hate, war, and discrimination have to do with misunderstanding. If one group from one country does something terrible, people tend to lable the whole country as terrible. Wisdom stops this misunderstanding. With wisdom comes understanding, and with understanding comes peace and love.

Yes! It is the principal thing to get, the highest thing to attain to.
Wisdom is better than riches. Solomon was the wisest man on earth because he had ran after and gotten wisdom.
Wisdom crieth in the streets! Wisdom will make you to know things others do not understand. Use it wisely, always pray for wisdom and guidance in all your ways. You will never go wrong. Wisdom will guide you, lead you, teach you. Wisdom is awesome! I am talking about Gods wisdom, Man's wisdom will lead you astray , you can become perverted in wrong teachings and wrong doctrines.

Yes, as long as you know what wisdom is. Wisdom is not simply thinking you have the answers. Wisdom is simply rational thought combined with experience.

Wisdom and discernment!! Love the book of Proverbs.

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.

Let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance.

Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men, from men whose words are perverse.

Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you.

it is a good thing to have responsibility, which is often tempered by wisdom (and experience). but wisdom, like any tool, can be wielded in a constructive or destructive manner, both externally and internally.

Yes and No. Yes because you are "aware" of the perils involved in things you are questionable at. No because it does not prevent you from indulging in things you want to do without thinking of the problems which may occur as a result of it. I think back at some of things Ive done in my younger years and wonder how by the grace of God i got through it. I didn't think about it at the time because I was ignorant to any problems that may ensue.

Most definitely, especially since the truly wise one knows that wisdom transcends knowledge and at best is transitory whenever grasped.

Of course. Can you give me a reason why wisdom would be bad?

Don't confuse wisdom with intelligence..!! The wise have little to say.. the intellectual has to prove how smart he is, by constant chatter. Usually of little relevance.
