Send us a textIn this Gospel Jesus talks about two situations where innocent people were killed.  Jesus articulates the thoughts of the people who believed that the people who were killed were not only responsible for their misfortunate but that their bad luck was likely a result of God punishing them.  Jesus challenges this “blaming the victim’ stance.   This theme, namely  that misfortune is a sign of sin is very clear in (John 9:1-23) where Jesus heals a blind man.  Before he does ,the disciples ask Jesus who sinned, was it the man or his parents that lead to this man’s blindness?  Jesus corrects his disciples saying that this man’s blindness had nothing to do with sin.  Complete our 1 Minute Survey
