Ah, the theologian button has been pushed! And here he comes now! A question: If Jesus were a flyfisherperson (politically correct, notice?) and I have certain evidence to support that. For instance, he called His first dicsiples away from the nets and taught them how to catch and release. . . some would say "call and send."
If Jesus were a flysisherperson, with whom would He NOT fish? Would He spend the bulk of His time fishing only with His disciples? Or would He "fish" in a shallow stream with a sinful fisherperson - referrring to the woman at the well. 'Nuff said. Time to put the theologian back in his box.
