I am Certainly not Stupid...

Are you stupid?… the people asked Noah as he began building a ship on dry land, where far and wide no water was to be found.

Am I stupid?… and work like a dog for nothing? I want to enjoy my life, said the lost son to his father before he left home.

I am certainly not stupid... not to take the 30 silver coins, said Judas to himself before he betrayed Jesus.

Don’t be stupid- don’t turn down God’s offerings.

I am certainly not stupid... said Zechariah : to turn down the offer from Jesus to eat with him (and because of it his life was changed).
