nicole_do • 虐童疑云:关于GOSSIP的布道
很感慨。影评也已经很多了。我找了好久，就分享一下关于GOSSIP的布道这个情景。我是很喜欢的。确实是要留下点什么的。
一点点中文和比较完整的英文。

“闲话别人是罪吗?” 妇人问神父。“全能的上帝请指引我！”
“先别急，请你现在回家，拿个枕头到屋顶上去，用刀把它割开枕头，然后再来找我。”神父说。
女人回到家，拿上枕头和刀，从防火梯爬到屋顶。她戳破了枕头，然后回到教堂。
“你用刀把它戳破了吗？”神父问道。
“是的，神父。”
“然后呢？”
“羽毛。” 妇人说。“羽毛，到处都是羽毛，神父。”
神父说，“现在回去，把每根飘飞的羽毛都找回来。”妇人回答说，“不可能的啊！我不知道它们飘哪去了？！”风吹的到处都是。
神父说，那就是流言！

A woman was gossiping with a friend about a man she hardly knew.I know none of you have ever done this .That night she had a dream .A great hand appeared over her and pointed down at her.She was immediately seized with an overwhelming sense of guilt.The next day she went to confession .She got the old parish priest,Father O'Rourke,and she told him the whole thing.
"Is gossiping a sin ?" she asked the old man.
"Was that the hand of God Almighty pointing a finger at me ?" "Should I be asking your absolution ? Father , tell me ,have I done something wrong?"
" Yes!" Father O'Rourke answered her."Yes , you ignorant, badly brouht-up female! You have borne false witness against your neighbor,you have played fast and loose with his reputation ,and you should be heartily ashamed!"
So the woman said she was sorry and asked for forgiveness.
"Not so fast !"says O'Rourke."I want you to go home,take a pillow up on your roof,cut it open with a knife,and return here to me !"
So the woman went home,took a pillow off her bed,a knife from the drawer,went up the fire escape to the roof,and stabbed the pillow.Then she went back to the old parish prist as instructed.
"Did you gut the pillow with the kinfe?" he says.
"Yes,Father." "And what was the result ?"
"Fearhers,"she said."Feathers？＂he repeated."Feathers everywhere,Father!"
"Now I want you to go back and gather up every last feather that flew out on the wind !"
"Well," she said ," it can't be done." "I don't konw where they went.The wind took them all over."
"And that," said Father O'Rourke,"is gossip!"
