You can tell a fool by the multitude of his words, O so true!! Ecc 5:3 For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice is known by the multitude of words. I use to believe this passage dealt with talking alot! But it is actually referring to lack of wisdom lol! Examine it, you can tell a fool by the senseless madness which proceeds from his mouth!! Any man who denies Jesus Christ is ignorant! Any man who declares lies is ignorant of the consequences of his crime. Any man who does anything unholy is ignorant. And man who speaks untrained is ignorant, you can tell a fool by the multitude of his words lol!!

See I asked all would you like to discern a fool? See these fools responses? Wisdom is too high for a fool!! Few considered we were referring to death as the finality of refusal to accept wisdom. For God formed all things and said fear of me yea that's wisdom! For it is, You who asked us if we are bright, your responses to our postings announces YOUR ignorance, you have no intelligence! All the things we form with our hands will surely fail us in the end. Not to mention no man has ever formed anything without using God's resources! And you trust in the vain knowledge of man you aren't very bright are YOU?

Ecclesiastes is a difficult book to read especially when you take something out of context. Ecclesiastes 5:1- talks about "Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Go near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools..." concluding "Much dreaming and many words are meaningless. Therefore stand in awe of God." The point here is God not fools.
This passage has little do to with Christianity as found in Paul's letters. Although the words sounds like Paul's, their ring lacks his clarify. I can not find one letter that Paul wrote where he quotes Ecclesiastes. It would be helpful if you reference rather than paraphrase. I know that Paul got it right, I am not sure if you did.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: love your neighbor as yourself. Matthew 22:36

Any man who denies God is faithless.
And any man who denies Jesus Christ is simply not Christian.
Neither of these makes a person a fool.
Get over yourself.

"In the multitude of words, there wantest not sin".
"Let him who thinketh he standeth, take heed lest he fall".
