The school Pharisees try to trap Scotch
Jesus, but he flips their script with a clever conundrum and has them reeling
at the thought of their racial apostasy being exposed.
One day, as Scotch
Jesus was encouraging his class to feel pride in their ancestors’ technical and
artistic genius by teaching them about
the development of the European cathedral while gently listening to some Bach
religious music, the chief diversity teachers and department anti-racist scribes, together with the school Babylonian
lifestyle advisors, came up to Him. "Tell us by what authority you are
doing these things," they said. "Who gave you this authority?"
“Let me ask you
a question first,” He replied. “Half the diversity – is it still twice too
much; or is twice the diversity, half of what it should be?”
They deliberated among themselves,
but found that their brains addled by repetitive tweeting could not reach a
conclusion, and so said, "If we answer wrongly all the pupils will stone
us, and we will become infamous as racists and lose our high salaried jobs.” So
they answered that they did not know. And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell
you by what authority I am doing these things.” And the pupils were amazed,
never before had they heard such wisdom.
NB. With thanks (and apologies, if
required) to Luke, the evangelist and saint. See Luke 20:1-8
