Jesus talks about the problem with the blind leading the blind. Both will simply fall into the pit. We remember that we are all on a trip to Heaven. Thus, we need to know the correct way to get there. We need guidance, insofar as going to that place is not that clearly marked out. Take, for example, today being Friday coinciding with the 13th of the month. What does that say to you? People may be superstitious and read more into this coincidence than the mere fact. The light of Christianity is granted us by the Redeemer and His Spouse the Holy Catholic Church. We all need the light of God to guide us regarding our moral choices. Otherwise, we seek other gods that are apparently able to discern truth from falsehood. These are the blind, i.e., creatures taken to have some divine attribute to guide the blind. Actually, such false gods are blind trying to lead the blind. Our Lord warns us that they will fall into a pit!
