I think in some ways we are all like Kichijiro. He is a coward and his drunkenness in very unattractive but it's easy to sit here and criticize him when none of us have ever really faced persecution and death for our beliefs. I'm only at the second chapter but I am very interested to learn about Kichijiro's history. Why does he drink? Why is he such a coward? Are the people of Japan really as fearless and faithful as rumored?
I commented on Abbey Griffen's.
The fact that we are like Kichijiro is a valid point. How many times do we subconsciously reject our faith in even the slightest way, such as getting road rage, or focusing on things that go against God's will?
ReplyDeleteI agree that, even subconsciously, we can all be Kichijiro.
