I keep forgetting this one Today's Gospel reading is Luke's version of the Parable of the Talents. (Matthew's version was Sunday's Gospel.) As St. Luke tells it, Jesus told a double parable, combining the one about servants and money with this one:A nobleman went off to a distant country to obtain the kingship for himself and then to return... His fellow citizens, however, despised him and sent a delegation after him to announce, "We do not want this man to be our king." But...

Que jamás encajó en parte alguna ni hizo nada digno de mención. Se quedó ahí en esa rama durante unos...

By Paulo Coelho Since the devil does not do talk very much about himself, men look for all sorts of references about hell. Most religions have what is called a "place for punishment" where the immortal soul goes after committing certain crimes against society (it all seems to be a matter of society rather than the individual).
