It seems raving nonsense to the monkeys, but it is simple sense. It ape's divine self-sufficiency. The most just war ever fought, in defense of the most just, most worthy, most innocent Man and cause, was also the shortest. Jesus stopped it almost before it started, apparently allowing it to start only to give his disciples and us an object lesson about his methods for ending it. Everybody's looking for something.
Hunger is our very nature.
Our souls, like our bodies, need food. No one but God is self-sufficient.
