Mardi Gras Out of Context – 3.

buy Gabapentin for dogs In the French Quarter, I saw a man standing at an intersection with a sign saying, GOD IS NOT FAIR.  A man came up to him and asked him if he was with the Jesus people a few steps from him.  And I thought to myself, “That is a great theological question.  That is precisely the thing I want to know.”

lankly He replied that he was not.  But he could have been, and his sign might still have been the same.

A Hindu story I have received: a man asked his guru how many reincarnations it would take to reach enlightenment.  The guru replied, “For those who love God, seven.  But for those who hate God, only three.”

And a Christian saying: “In the first half of your life you fight the Devil.  In the second half of your life, you fight God.”  Is this not the story of Jacob, he who has wrestled with God?
