Hi Joe, The following video has some interesting and unique perpectives on the gifts and particularly word of knowledge. It was held in Poughkeepsie about 6 years ago by a young lady who did a wonderful job explaining them, and from a catholic perspective no less. Her historical points were eye-opening to me. May you find the fullness of God's gift to help others, brother!

I thought that AI did a good job of answering: https://www.google.com/search?q=why+are+children+drawn+to+narcissists&sca_esv=178908ee291956e1&sxsrf=AHTn8zpWkgehLrJKVB4SO16cj4xDJlEAkw%3A1745580724273&source=hp&ei=tHILaJHYDuimptQPqpT0kAY&iflsig=ACkRmUkAAAAAaAuAxElGMj0KeOqLIsZF7S7R3hVt0N4t&ved=0ahUKEwiRgvv3ivOMAxVok4kEHSoKHWIQ4dUDCBk&uact=5&oq=why+are+children+drawn+to+narcissists&gs_lp=Egdnd3Mtd2l6IiV3aHkgYXJlIGNoaWxkcmVuIGRyYXduIHRvIG5hcmNpc3Npc3RzSIZcUABYj1lwAHgAkAEAmAGtAaABlRqqAQUyNi4xMbgBA8gBAPgBAZgCHKAC5xPCAgoQIxiABBgnGIoFwgIEECMYJ8ICCxAAGIAEGLEDGIMBwgIREC4YgAQYsQMY0QMYgwEYxwHCAg4QLhiABBixAxjRAxjHAcICCBAAGIAEGLEDwgIFEAAYgATCAggQLhiABBixA8ICDhAAGIAEGLEDGIMBGIoFwgIGEAAYFhgewgILEAAYgAQYhgMYigXCAggQABiABBiiBMICBRAAGO8FmAMAkgcEMTkuOaAHoOkBsgcEMTkuObgH5xM&sclient=gws-wiz

Agree.... and since this thread is about books of the '70s.. off topic as well... thanks. Happy Resurrection Sunday, one and all!

Would you trade places with him? From the Douay-Rheims Latin Vulgate: 39 And one of those robbers who were hanged, blasphemed him, saying: If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. 40 But the other answering, rebuked him, saying: Neither dost thou fear God, seeing thou art condemned under the same condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this man hath done no evil. 42 And he said to Jesus: Lord, remember me when thou shalt come into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said to him: Amen I say to thee, this day thou shalt be with me in paradise. 44 And it was almost the sixth hour; and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. 45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst. [43] COMMENTARY: "In paradise": That is, in the happy state of rest, joy, and peace everlasting. Christ was pleased, by a special privilege, to reward the faith and confession of the penitent thief, with a full discharge of all his sins, both as to the guilt and punishment; and to introduce him immediately after death into the happy society of the saints, whose limbo, that is, the place of their confinement, was now made a paradise by our Lord's going thither.
