I Am In Serious Need Of Lady Wsdom's Teachings

 I know this need is real, because so much of the world confuses me.

I know this need is real, because so much of the world confuses me.    Since February 2022, America has spent 175 Billion dollars supporting Ukraine and since October 8, 2023, has gifted Israel 17.9 Billion in military aid.  In the same time frame, America has spent, in round numbers, 30 Billion dollars to aid countries being devastated by climate change. America is not alone in being more generous when it comes to killing than to healing.  This just doesn't make sense to me. Does it make sense to you?  I get just as confused over how the rich don't seem to understand that if they continue to increase their wealth while lowering the wealth of the masses that there will be a nasty, brutish, bloody revolution.   Why do you think it is that humans are so hell-bent on self-destruction?  Brian

At least one bit of wisdom literature answers your question by mentioning the sinful nature of man (meaning male and female)
That's true. But it is rather an empty answer. What about the interplay between Wisdom, sin, and stupidity? Why is it tht we are unable to see that innate sin can be compensated for by Wisdom? Are humans really that stupid?
