A Farmer met a lonely pig along the road and asked him,
"Sir,"
"I am the last of the Gadarene swine. I stopped to ask where we were going; I survived."

The Cross of Jesus
The cross of Jesus is the radical condemnation of an unjust world (Gal 6,14). There is no escape from the cross, you have to stay with the one crucified on it or stand with the crucifiers, there is no middle way. All that God values is hated and killed by the world. What the world esteems, God abhors. Through Jesus, God offers the world equality, solidarity and mutual help, freedom, love, and happiness with God as its king and father. But domination, violence, injustice, the religious and civil power, the ruling class and the people seeking their security in institutions, hate life and give death. They prefer Caesar for king (Jn 19:15). --Juan Mateos, S.J.
This quote has haunted me for decades. And as far as I can see, it is true: there is no middle way.
