Judas Iscariot Crushing Double Dels by Pete Holby
I don’t know if you’ve ever wrestled with the question of whether or not we all get what we deserve in this life but I was at Del Taco once at 3am and I watched a man be told in no uncertain terms that he would never again be allowed in Del Taco. He walked out of there and I half suspect that nobody ever saw him again. It got me thinking.
Take Judas Iscariot, for example. He takes his 30 pieces of silver to the Pharisees and he says here, I made a mistake, I don’t want these anymore. The Pharisees say no, you carry those with you. Those belong to you. Judas can’t carry them, so he hangs himself in a field. Someone once told me they were getting married and I responded “I thought you were better than that.”
I don’t think the lesson here is that you will do things you can’t take back but that those things exist on a scale and if you can avoid getting banned for life from Del Taco or betraying the son of God maybe there’s a way to live with the rest of it.
