The lord be with you. A reading of the holy gospel according to Saint Luke. Jesus said, what comparison can I use for the men of today? What are they like? September 1987.
They are like children squatting in the city squares and calling out to their playmates. We piped you a tune, but you wouldn't dance. We sang you a dirge, but you would not sing. I mean, and our Lord is continuing now. I mean, that John the baptizer came neither eating bread nor drinking wine.
And you said, he is mad, crazy, lunatic. The son of man came and he both ate and drank, and you say, here is a glutton, a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners. Our lord concludes, God's wisdom is vindicated by all who accept it. God's wisdom. And this is the gospel of the lord.
