Gospel is story of good news not an excuse for broadsides

Yesterday's Gospel was about finding a treasure. Why not preach on the treasure that every human being actually is?

Surely all words after the Gospel should be said in an attempt to explain the Gospel and to inspire  and vivify those present.

If members of other faiths are nervous about being criticised does that mean Christians too have to behave in a similar fashion?

At present it seems popular among some priests, bishops, archbishops and others in the Catholic Church to claim victimhood status.

Such behaviour is not worthy of the Christian woman or man.
