Becky, why do you think it is stupid to walk off your job just because you
have material obligations?  Your attitude seems quite at variance with
Jesus' teachings on one's proper relationship to the material world.

Seems like this would depend on *why* he walked off his job.  From
Becky's article, it sounds like he left just because he was ticked off.
This is immature.  If, however, he left to do something more
important (e.g. become a fisher of men), that's different.  I guess
the question is, what is he doing now?  Is he doing something
constructive, or just sitting around being mad at the world?
