(Sorry if this comment is redundant here..)Jesus said that the poor will always be with us and that at the time those present should pay attention to him and what he was (and is still) doing. As to the resurrection, it’s been said that believers are ‘fools for Christ’. Perhaps so from the perspective of those who don’t believe. The crux is faith; how to have it if you don’t. This is not a conundrum. The late Mother Teresa said “..lack of faith is no excuse.. ask for it.” The first step for this is go go within, and at that place where faith does not exist say “here I am, I surrender, do with me as you will, only give me faith”.. then wait. Ramirez’s image is spot on of today’s world. And the victims died to that world for their faith.
