Contributions from Pat Dwyer
“I have come not to abolish, but to fulfill.” These are Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:17 regarding the Jewish law. Indeed, throughout the gospels Jesus is accused of breaking the Jewish laws regarding cleanliness, fasting, working on the Sabbath, and even blasphemy. The religious and political power holders saw his teachings, like the beatitudes that immediately precede this passage in Matthew’s account of the Sermon on the Mount, as a threat to the status quo.

If you’re reading this reflection online, then it’s safe to assume that you are probably on Facebook. And if you plan to watch the Academy Awards this Sunday night, then it’s probably also safe to assume that you’ve seen, or at least heard of, The Social Network, the semi-factual film about Facebook’s founder, Mark Zuckerberg.
