There was a time in the beginning of Don Bosco's priestly life where almost everyone around him thought that he had lost his mind. He devoted so much time to his apostolate with delinquent street boys and talked so frequently of buying a massive Oratory that, as we shall see in today’s episode, they tried to send him to an insane asylum.

What had happened to Our Lord Jesus Christ occurred with Don Bosco: “The crowd so surrounded him that he could not even take food. Having heard such things, his own people seized him, saying: ‘He has gone mad’ (Mark 3:20-21).

But Don Bosco outwitted his dissenters in a way that is the material of legends.
