Pentecost 5A -- Schrödinger's Weeds

Reading: Matthew 13: 24-30, 36-43 Jesus tells the parable of the wheat and the weeds, where he touches on the problem of evil in the world.  While he does not touch on the cause of the evil or answer why God might allow it to continue, the promise inherent is that there will be judgment and that the evil will be cast out.
