(and to those who already know where this quote comes from, please don't give it away)
Christians, would you agree or disagree with the following quote.
"He that is slow to believe in anything and everything is of great understanding, for belief in one false principle is the beginning of all unwisdom."

Let's see, secretive and asking for silence, me thinks we are being set up to agree with the Koran or some such religion.
I will be the first to say that many different religions have aspects that are of good intention and even decent advice, but that does not mean the religion is valid or even desirable. Sugar by itself is sweet but put it in a pile of dung and I would not go near it or sample it for that matter.
The Bible has more than enough wisdom for the believer with out trying to find a pearl elsewhere in shark infested waters.

This makes a lot of sense and the Bible also says something that agrees to this, in fact we must try or test everything to see if it is holding in truth, one who is too quick to believe only because what they hear (or read) pleases them have no wisdom at all... I am a christian and even an other christian's comment, I will test it to the limit.

it does not make sense. 'for belief in one false principle is the begining of all unwisdom.'......? frist of all, what false principle? christianity? God? Whos to prove GOd does or does not exist? Thats why we have faith! and what does 'begining of all inwisdom' mean? Youre not wise just becuase you dont believe in something. You may be smart, becuase you dont let yourself be fooled. But thats different. So, i dont know what point that quote is trying to prove, but i dont think it proves anything.

The 'belief in one false principle is the beginning of all unwisdom' reminds me of the additions to scripture that HAS OCCURRED in this country presently WITHIN THE BIBLE!!!

You are asking Christian opinion on one sentence from the Satanic Bible (the most often quoted and the only phrase I've ever heard bandied about from it)? Why?
Just a little piece of wisdom...great lies are made more palatable with a little truth

With that many negatives, it's hard to decipher.
Is it some kind of "negative image" of an actual quote?

It is a quote from the satanic "bible". Google was kind enough to figure that out....

To me it means.....You think about something and check it out before you automatically believe it. If you believe something quickly, and it's not true, then your really not wise at all.......something like that. I know what I mean, just kinda hard to express in words.

It sounds nice - but the only thing to judge "false" on is the light Himself - Jesus Christ the Lord God.

Sounds like Proverbs. It cautions about being misled. Right or wrong? Yeah, it does sound like something from the satanic bible, also, which is a kind of rip off from the real Bible in its own sordid way.
