So todays' Gospel was "render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's,
and to God the things that are God's"

So the priest calls all the kids up to the altar to explain that the Pharisees were trying to get Jesus killed which I thought was a nice way to plant some good solid anti-Semitism.

Then he pulled out a dollar bill to show the kids that all our money says "In God We Trust" and told them we shouldn't trust the government.

It was down hill from there......

1. Oh, jeez.
I wish you had been at my parish. The priest talked about human beings being in the image of God and that we do God's work. I think he was espousing a variation on Saint Teresa of Avila's notion that Jesus has no hands on earth but ours.
