Remember that the Pharisees chastised Jesus and his followers for
eating with tax collectors and prostitutes. Jesus was unrepentant.
Remember that the apostle Paul (nee Saul) spoke not only of a "curse,
an affliction" given to him by God, but that he embraced it as a
reminder of his humanity and his dependence on God for his salvation.
