Incredible thoughts, but even more incredible is the notion �. �that the sun goes around the earth as the Church and the Bible said...�
Was this a part of the Bible at any time?
As the renowned Ken Blanchard notes, in one of his speeches: �After the [chess] game is over -- the King and the pawns go into the same box.�
Whether saint or sinner all eventually go into the �box� or return to dust � only their deeds remain.
Why don�t we respect the fact that people like Bl Mother Teresa and Bl Joseph Vaz are known for their work and (good) deeds on earth? Would they really crave or compete for a place on a pedestal for world acclamation?
Joe Vaz
