Nagging Consistency

This is excellent! Why aren't more people at my school coming to conclusions (and writing papers) like this?

Favorite quote:

While the Bible is a famously supple text, allowing multiple, even contradictory exegeses on everything from the role of women to the death penalty, its message on the poor has an almost nagging consistency. The Jesus portrayed in the Gospels has enormous respect and compassion for the poor and little regard for wealth.

Nagging consistency indeed. Amen.
