Here are some challenging Indian situations of ordinary people who willingly chose to be considered fools. Very often they end up being losers. They were inspired by the foolishness of the cross as found in I Corinthians 1:18-31. No wonder smart people think these Christians are idiots. But then, they are "Christian Idiots". If you are one of them, don’t lose heart... There has always been Christian Idiots and one of them died on the cross.

CHRISTIAN IDIOT. - VII
I love my Swift. But I don’t like the escalating cost of petrol. I decided to use an alternate fuel. Auto gas came in handy! It is easily available, eco-friendly, economical and absolutely legal. So I fixed a gas unit and I am happy I did. I thought I was smart but I have a ‘smarter’ neighbor! He fills his auto gas tank with domestic LPG cylinder. There is a big racket going on in this little town. For a fee of 40 rupees a boy would slip into your house like a thief with a pump and secretly transfer the contents of your domestic LPG cylinder into your family car gas tank! (You may have to stand outside your house and make sure nobody takes note of this illegal activity!) It was one of those occasions the neighbor caught my eyes. He even dared to give me a cool advice! “With just the two of you in our house hold,” told my neighbor, “you can use your extra cylinder for your family car, sir. This is real economy and gives better mileage too, sir.” I walked away saying, “It may be good for you; but you know it is illegal.” My wife was waiting with a smirk on her face. “You gave him good.” She said, “Had you agreed with him, I would have called you a simple idiot and not a Christian Idiot!” Just look at me! I seem to end up being an idiot either way!
