Pastor's Weekly Sermon
(July 11th)
A very wise person
once said: “The difference between genius
and stupidity is that genius has limits.”
Do you every do dumb things? Make foolish,
seemingly unthinking, often self-destructive
mistakes? I suppose it’s safe to say that we
all have those moments, from time to time.
Consider the following:
“March 17, 2000: 22-year-old Mark Williams
of Pontiac, Michigan, a young man struggling
with serious financial problems, decided to
rob the fast-food restaurant where he
worked. He put on a ski mask and held up his
fellow employees to the tune of $3,000.
“But as if the crime alone wasn’t unwise
enough, his foolishness continues:
“As it was Williams intention to rob the
restaurant immediately before his shift, and
then, as his alibi, to arrive at work as if
nothing had happened; Williams, while
wearing a ski mask to protect his anonymity,
had also inadvertently chosen to wear his
work uniform and name badge. After
questioning employees, police were just
about to leave the restaurant to arrest
Williams at his home when he saved them the
trouble by walking in the front door.”
“Williams was subsequently sentenced to a
6-year prison term.”
Not exactly thinking things through. ..
