[Define "current events" however you will]]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336687 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336694 Current events are things that are happening in our society today. This story showed how people have money expect everyone to do what they are told and feel is if there are not as many consequences for their actions because of their wealth. This is evident in our politicians and wealthy celebrities today. This story showed the importance of unity in our world today surrounding the concept of wealth and fame. That our world today we need to all realize that we are equal especially in the eyes of God and not feel that one person is better than another.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336694 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336700 Something that I found related to current events was that the famous man resorted to violence to get what he wanted. Today, we have seen violence used at riots as a way of trying to stop them, but this only hurts more people. The famous man thought that the only way he could see the holy man was to attack a monk, but there were other ways that didn't involve hurting someone. Our lack of patience today can cause us to make rash decisions because we want something accomplished right now.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336700 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336706 I think that this story relates to famous people and them thinking they can get whatever they want because they are famous. Also that famous people are not always humble human beings as well.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336706 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336713 some things that i think can relate to this parable today are people who think they are above everyone else because they are more famous or have more money]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336713 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336720 I think that a lot from the "Man on the Mountain" Parable can be connected to current events today. The main idea of a famous person believing they can get anything they want no matter the means is evident in our world today. There are many celebrities and even government officials who have this mentality. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336720 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336726 Something that related to current events today was the violence that they famous man resorted to for not being allowed to see the holy man. People with power and wealth expect others to do what they say but that does 't always work.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336726 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336730 Something I heard in the story that relates to our current events is people trying to get around or away from things with the use of fame and money. You see people in our society try to get out of all kinds of trouble because they have money or fame. The story showed that with the famous man trying to use money and fame to get to see the wise man. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336730 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336734 I think this relates to current events because famous people and people with a lot of money sometimes let the money get to their heads and are unjust and callous. They forget that money can't buy happiness or fulfillment. ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336734 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336737 I can relate to the story in my current events with my parents telling me to do something. When the famous man asked his PA to go up the mountain, he reluctlantly obeyed. This is what I do when my parents tell me to do something. I reluctlantly obey.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336737 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336740 This story relates to current events in a few ways. The current events most closely related to this story are the chaotic protests from the election. Just like the famous man in the story, many people only think about themselves and have a blatant disregard for the thoughts and feelings of others. The ignorance of those who don't understand how violent protests are wrong can be compared with the ignorance of the famous man.]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336740 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336743 something in the story that relates to current events is the violence towards others and the carelessness for others that we have lost while we are tying to achieve a goal. we lost sight of others and God being within other people ]]> 2021-01-22 18:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336743 https://padlet.com/mrkohut/9xf0hrvpn6x4g2sn1617312986/wish/1115336746 This story relates to some of the current events today.
