Bonhoeffer on Stupidity
This is by fr the most popular thing I've ever posted on Twitter. (Look down the right side of this page for my Twitter feed.) I wish I remembered where I found it but I don't. My priest (Episcopal, not Catholic) really liked a book about Bonhoeffer and when I saw this meme the name clicked.
Anyway, I thought it on point for our times.
Bonhoeffer was Christian intellectual that finally became a pastor. What made him famous was his immediate opposition to Hitler. The Nazis hung him during the final days of World War II -- when they knew they had lost the war. Bonhoeffer had an endlessly interesting life. You can read more about him at Wikipedia.
