The Ass tells the tiger the grass is Blue. Tiger replies, No, the grass is Green.?The discussion became heated, and both decided to approach King Lion to settle the issue.
As they approached, the Ass started screaming, your highness isn’t it true the grass is Blue, the Lion replied if you believe it is true then the grass is Blue. The Ass became very happy and said, Tiger disagreed with me contradicted me and annoyed me, please punish him. King Lion declared, Yes! the Tiger will be punished with 3 days of silence, the Ass jumped with joy and went on his way singing, the grass is Blue, the grass is Blue.
In private, Tiger asked the Lion, why have you punished me, after all the grass is Green. The Lion replied, it has nothing to do with the question whether the grass is Blue or Green, the punishment is because it is degrading for a brave and intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with an Ass and no top of that you came to me and got me also involved just to validate something you already knew was true.
You see, the biggest waste of time is arguing with a fool and fanatic who doesn’t care about truth or reality but only victory of his belief and illusions.?Never waste time on discussion that makes no sense as there are people who for all the evidence presented to them do not have the ability to understand who are blinded by their ego or hatred and resentment.
The saying goes, ‘when an ignorant screams, intelligence moves away.’
