a note on the gospel story

it was never remarked to me, but judging by my experience, how tired and
bored people must have got with jesus, driving them over and over to
breaking point, but then everything going on as before........until he was
obviously treading a doom-laden path, and they abandoned him to it. like
him, i expected a far readier positive reaction, and real support, early
on, and am still pressing the case, 28 years later.
we shall see.
