This is a replay of Episode 31 with a brief new intro.
Jesus tells a parable about a demon exorcism which results in a situation worse than the original demon possession. Those who read the Bible at surface level (and somehow don't seem to notice all the problems that presents) tend to read this passage literally, but Jesus is clearly speaking parabolically. This parable can be applied to any situation in which a problem has been dealt with in a way that does not deal with the root cause and only kicks the can down the road.
I didn't change anything in the original episode; I'm just suggesting that it is worth another hearing because it can be applied to our current situation.
