Una riflessione oggi...

Libro di Giona, Capitolo 2
9
Quelli che adorano gli idoli
ti hanno abbandonato.
10 Ma io canterò lodi a te,
ti offrirò sacrifici
e farò quello che ho promesso.
Sei tu che salvi, o Signore!'.
11Poi il Signore diede un nuovo ordine e il pesce vomitò Giona sulla spiaggia.

How to catch wild pigs...

Pace di Cristo amata chiesa...

...I loved this story, and used it:

CONFORMISMO,
EL PELIGRO DEL CONFORMISMO...



" Do you know how to catch wild pigs? " 

...the story goes: 
You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods 
and putting corn on the ground. 
The pigs find it and begin to come every day to eat the free corn. 

When they are used to coming every day, 
you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. 
When they get used to the fence, 
they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. 
They get used to that and start to eat again. 
You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side.

The pigs, which are used to the free corn, 
start to come through the gate to eat that free corn again. 

You then slam the gate on them 
and catch the whole herd. 

Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. 
They run around and around inside the fence, 
but they are caught. 
Soon they go back to eating the free corn. 
They are so used to it 
that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, 
so they accept their captivity.
