Answering an Arguer

Intelligent people don't argue. Only those who lack confidence and truth will fight to win, arguing is candy to these people, do not engage with them.

Proverbs 26:3-5 "…3 A whip is for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, And a rod for the back of fools. 4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly, Or you will also be like him. 5 Answer a fool as his folly deserves, That he not be wise in his own eyes.…"
