In your case.......Does being a smartass count?
I would - for me and mine - change your statement a bit to - The love of God. He’s not to be feared if you’re on his team.I taught my kids that two things will make them smart; the fear of God and reading the right stuff.
Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. There are many more scriptures that state the fear of our God as well as the love of God. The fear of God and the repercussion of disobeying His word is what I've taught. Every thought and deed will be judged by the One True Judge. The lack of fear of Him is what is wrong with this world today. His love is always understood by those who seek him and the lack of fear of Him is obvious to us all.I would - for me and mine - change your statement a bit to - The love of God.

I got the Idiocracy reference! Not sure what that means about me?"Brawndo has electrolytes, it has what plants need".
Like the old saying goes: "Everybody likes a little *** now and then but nobody likes a smart ***"Does being a smartass count?

And it can also mean respect. The ones that don't believe have no fear or respect....and most of them don't respect the rights of the ones that do believe.Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.

Reminds me of the tune by George Strait “How ‘bout those cowgirls…you can’t tell ‘em nothing”. Dated two gals in HS that were sassy…but sure had some fun at the lake and outdoor theaters while those relationships lasted. Zero doubt if I had married either one of them would have ended up with the big D, lol. In fact they did get married and both got divorced.I knew (on a friendly basis) a high school girl I would describe as "sassy", a term one does not hear much anymore. I always wondered if she was "intelligent" as well.
Think it has some to do with expected high-maintenance like some sexy foreign sports cars need to run well and tuning them can be a bitch. Some know they’re hot and get put on a pedestal accordingly with a perceived free card to be a flaming bitch. Being pussy-whipped can develop a shelf-life reaching the expiration date…as I found, lol.Not universally a fact, but it sure seems all the most attractive women end up in a divorce (you would think it would be the other way around).
"The struggle is real."Reminds me of taking a community college "social geography" class where the teacher was so disappointed on the scores of the first exam that he decided to grade it on the "curve". He even posted the range of scores on the blackboard. I'm a good test taker and found I had the highest score in the class. The kid next to me asked what my score was. I was hesitant to show him, but what the hell, I did. He gave me kind of a dirty look and did not speak to me the rest of the semester, making me feel somewhat of an outcast after that.
