It’s hard to exaggerate how mind numbingly self-destructive we humans can be. So it’s comforting to know that Jesus saw just how self-defeating we can be and offers a way that can see such futility reversed or neutralized. What Jesus does is stand on the firm ground of common sense to break the spiral of self-defeating religious mumbo jumbo and just asks his detractor to fault that appeal to commonsense and what they know to be the foundation of their religion. But guess what? The fanatics still find cause to fault him!
