complained that it made no sense to go to Mosque every Friday.
"I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard
something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me I can't remember
a single one of them. So I think I'm wasting my time . . . and the
Imaam they are wasting theirs bygiving sermons at all."
This started a real controversy in the"Letters to the Editor" column,
much to the dismay of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone
wrote this clincher:
"I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked
some32,000 meals. But for the life of me, I cannot recall what the
menu was for a single one of those meals.But I do know this: they all
nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my
wife had not given methose meals, I would be dead today."
No comments were made on the sermon contents anymore.
"The lips of the righteous nourish many . . ."
