I prefer what Jesus said in reference to the lilies of the field.. Who needs this race? I'll let you run until you have a heart attack. I'll enjoy the lilies of the field and the sun and the stars.
Paul seemed like quite an activist speaking to a variety of people in situations that you don't really find any more. I wonder what the situation was for the people in Corinth that Paul thought that they needed this kind of message.
