Thank you Fr. Hugh for taking the time to elaborate on this Parable. For me, It is very insightful, educational and helpful to understand God’s Ways and how sometimes how I think something might mean, may not always be the case. Tom.

Thanks, Tom, for commenting on this parable. God’s ways are not our ways, and this parable about the good and bad seed living together shows the depths of His compassion for us.
Hi Father Hugh Duffy.
Barry here.
We are having a Carmelite Class reunion shortly for the class of 1971-1976.
If you are interested I could arrange to patch you in and get you to be part of this get together.
Just let me know.
BTW you would be one of the few Carmelites that I would throw this invite out to.
Regards.
Barry
Hi, Barry. Thank you for the kind invitation to the 1971-1976 class reunion. I still remember, fondly, those halcyon days teaching in Castlemartyr.
My problem is the weather. I’m visiting with family in New Jersey and I’m struggling with the climate after being acclimatized to the much warmer Florida weather.
My warmest regards to the great class of 1971-1976, and sincere regrets I cannot attend.
Fr. Duffy, your treatise on the parable of the Wheat and the Weeds resonates with me in many ways, esp on the double standards found in the world today, even in the church of Christ.Some powerful figures would like to uproot both the good and the bad together as against Jesus’ teachings. Loved your saying to bloom wherever you’re planted and to build our spiritual garden where all seeds will grow.
Hugh Duffy
You’re right, Bartholomew. This parable’s message has been ignored by Church leaders down through the centuries, thinking that by persecuting and purging those they disagreed with, was God’s Will.
Your explanation of this parable is very helpful to understand how to make sense of the good and evil in the world and how to live in this dichotomy according to Christ’s teachings. Thank you!
Hugh Duffy
Good Ann. Glad that this message made good sense for you.
