- Angel 1
- Ok – here's the one thing I don't
understand...
- Angel 2
- (Mockingly) The one
thing?
- Angel 1
- Oi – I'm being serious! Chief
priests. Scribes – you know the top notch theologians.
- Angel 2
- I wouldn't exactly call them
top-notch? We've seen stuff they haven't even begun to dream of...!
- Angel 1
- Yes – but they know their
scriptures. You remember how the wise men turned up? They had all
answers to their questions. But they couldn't even be bothered to go
the 4½ miles to see the messiah? To see the one that the Almighty
promised would come to save them?
- Angel 2
- (Thoughtfully) Once again,
you have a point. (Pauses) It was the most significant event
since … well ... since the world was created.
- Angel 1
- What makes someone so indifferent
to what the Almighty is doing?
- Angel 2
- Beats me – I mean, we've seen
bucket loads of this kind of indifference – but still I'm never
ready for it.
- Angel 1
- It's like they just think it's a
puzzle or a story. Or for the fanatics.
- Angel 2
- They spend their days look so
“righteous” and respectable. But their hearts are colder than
something … something that's really, really cold.
- Angel 1
- It's like they ignore the treasure
that the Almighty offers because they're too busy chasing the wind.
They play with the wrapping paper, and throw out the present.
- Angel 2
- Humans. (Unimpressed) Huh.
- Angel 1
- Hey – careful how you say that –
the Almighty's pretty fond of them, you know...
