Hi Tony,
You wouldn't be the first or the least to be awed by St Francis, and I'd not be the the first to think he was a fanatic. Mind you, if Christ were with us again, no doubt I'd think him a fanatic also.
What would Jesus do if he was here again? Much the same as last time. He would attract me for as long as I could get something from him for free. After that, he'd embarass me, terrify me, confuse me, repel me, infuriate me. Just like last time. I'm no better than my fathers.
“And turn their grief into song?" he replied. "That would be a gracious act and a good beginning."
