  It's a conundrum

  How can they be appointed to provide "food at the appropriate time" BEFORE they have proven to be faithful and discreet?; and yet, they are appointed over the Lord's goods AFTER they are deemed "faithful and discreet".

  Nonsense. It's just a frigging parable, not a prophecy.

  HOW do the followers eat it up?
  Well, how did I? How did any of us?
  And then you get to thinking about the Jesus Camp type stuff. Or if you're a True Blood fan Fellowship of the Sun, the way they raise the emotions of the people, they get them stirred. It's not logical. Never has been. Never will be. It's emotional.
