The 5 Stooges of Truth
Sunday, August 14, 2011 at 12:00PM A frequent commentator here at Prophecy Podcast, Eddie H. Nessul, commenting on the blog post Three Stages of Truth on Friday said this:
I remember the THREE STAGES vividly from my youth. They were a big influence on my thinking and development.
Watched them every day. Yep,... Larry, Moe and Curly were hilarious! Hats off to the THREE STAGES!
Eddie's analogy fails at several levels, the most important being that there were 5 stages err, Stooges. (Yes I know there were 7 all together.)
First there is Moe—the typical leader. He thinks he knows the truth and has convinced everyone else in his group that he does.
Larry is typical of many followers, especially in political parties and churches. Larry knows he does not know, but thinks Moe does.
Curly has no concern himself with truth…soitenly! He just wants to have fun.
Shemp is another kind of leader. He knows he does not know the truth, but pretends he does to keep his hierarchical place in the group.
Finally we have Curly Joe. He knows the truth, but does not say anything because the truth is not palatable. But when the crisis comes he says what he must to keep Moe from leading the Stooges to an even worse disaster than normal.
My goal here at Prophecy Podcast is to be Curley Joe. I will try to quietly point out the evils of Babylon and how to avoid them. I will point out that Moe and Shemp are leading you down the wrong path.
In the words of Jesus:
Matthew 15:13-14
The Message (MSG)
13-14Jesus shrugged it off. "Every tree that wasn't planted by my Father in heaven will be pulled up by its roots. Forget them. They are blind men leading blind men. When a blind man leads a blind man, they both end up in the ditch."
Stay out of the ditches, do not follow Moe.
