    Somehow it seems very strange to ask Judas about the virtue of justice.

    Monday of Holy Week I don’t understand why people these days feel like they have to defend Judas from the accusations that he was a thief and a jerk. He was a thief and a jerk. Today’s Gospel shows him accusing Jesus of sinning against the virtue of justice, by allowing an expensive ointment to ...read more
