OK, bad title, but he makes a point.

I have never, ever understood the buffet at a strip club. Seems like looking at naked chicks and eating meatloaf are mutually exclusive things in my mind.

It does make the point, but how much EFFORT it takes. A lie’s travelled half way around the world while the truth’s still putting on its boots. Somehow Jesus was appealing to some sinners. They knew they were sinners but felt drawn to Him. Theoretically believers, having His Spirit within them, can have the same appeal.

Or not. The Lord’s perfect example failed to register with many. As explained in the piece, his generosity to “the sick” ( who need a doctor) was turned around and used as a slander—”a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners”.
