Ah, playing the victim now, huh?
There are many reasons why people love to slander others. Perhaps it is because they got their feelings hurt and are upset with that person. Another reason is envy. Some people slander others simply because they are carnally-minded and don’t like that person. Sometimes it’s because of self-righteousness, which causes one to view someone else as being a worse sinner than them self.
Although there are numerous reasons for which a person slanders his neighbor, the Bible tells us that only a fool does so.
Proverb 10:18: “He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.”
