STEP 4 – EBENEZER SCROOGE

broken image

“You don't believe in me,” observed the Ghost.

“I don't,” said Scrooge…

“Why do you doubt your senses?”

“Because,” said Scrooge, “a little thing affects them. A slight disorder of the stomach makes them cheats. You may be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato. There's more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are!”

From A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens, 1843

Ebenezer Scrooge. The very name seems evocative of a man Dickens described as “a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous, old sinner!”

So bad indeed is Scrooge that it takes a troupe of ghosts to get him to change his ways.

But maybe, just maybe, we’ve done old Scrooge an injustice. Why, he himself attributed the appearance of the ghosts to “a slight disorder of the stomach.”

It’s a fair point: after all, what kind of visions might YOU see if you were wrestling with “an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato”?

And how much worse is the danger of stomach upset when the high feasting days of Christmas are upon us!
