Comments: The ‘Reverend’ Ken Silva posted an open letter to his supporters, denigrating them for not giving enough and begging for money to allow him to attack legitimate Christian ministries full time. In response, Chris posted a parable comparing those who seek to serve others and those who seek to tear down the church, and how God honors them.

Memorable Quotes:

Ben said, ‘I have taken care of this small farm, just like you asked me to. I also went out across the countryside, decrying the farming techniques Bob was using. He was using machines to till the soil, and not his hands, and he was wasting his time giving food to the poor and water to the thirsty instead of farming the way that is right in my eyes. I would have done more, O King, but I did not have the funds to do so. Why did you not give me more?’

And the king answered, ‘Why would I give you more money to prevent food from being grown and harvested? Have you not already done enough damage?’

[brendt comments] You miss the point entirely. Decrying Bob is a ministry.
